Welcoming place to stay - Home away from home
What a welcoming place to stay at. After a long and trying day, my stay at Afropolitan felt like coming home - to peace, quiet and tranquility. Shower clean, linen clean too. Working TV and spacious room. Will definitely come back. Personal touch too, being welcomed at the parking lot.
