Property that is Most Value for Money and fabulous + truly Excellent, Awesome, Amazing and highly comfortable Stay in Lungi!! I will confidently give 10 out of 10 to this property and especially the host who is very kind and helpful. Don’t even think twice if you really heading to Lungi International Airport. I take this opportunity to write a detailed review to help future travelers to Freetown. When I boarded the flight, I could research from google that Freetown Airport is situated in town of Lungi and its name is also Lungi International Airport. I also found out that the airport is newly constructed and there is almost an 8 nautical mile sea channel to cross before we reach Freetown from Lungi. I was clueless about the means available to cross the sea and mainly the timings of services enabling passengers to cross across. So, I thought it would be wise to find an accommodation in Lungi itself as almost all flights landing in Lungi are late night flights and naturally crossing the sea in night time would be difficult. Thanks to ***********, I opened up the app and applied the filters and sorting of my choice and BOOOOM…..trust me there was only one HOMESTAY that fulfilled all my needs and criteria!!.....The name was YOGI HOMESTAY…….My needs were as under: • Should be very near to the new airport (not more than 5 minutes’ drive as I was eager to check in and take a warm shower!!) • Airport Pick up and drop service at Ferry Terminal (of course, I was ready to pay the extra charges for this service but just needed a proper co-ordination from the host) • Should be very affordable as I wanted to just spend a layover night before reaching Freetown. (All other properties in nearby area were charging way too high which was not my budget) • 24 hours’ electricity (Lungi has no Government Electricity for most of the time and all other property options offered only electricity at night time whereas I wanted to work in day time on my laptop so having power during day time was also important for me) • 24 hours running hot water (All other properties in Lungi were running Solar which never gave enough hot water so I wanted a place where proper hot water is running throughout) • Water pressure enough to have a relaxing shower (much needed after a long flight) • 24 hours Air-conditioning, and a bug, cockroach and lizard free Clean and comfortable environment • Assistance for currency changes and other local travels for food and entertainment • In house entertainment facility with blasting music system, disco lights, large TV screen and NETFLIX and AMAZON Prime • 24 hours Security • And above all, wanted a Cool host for chat and knowledge about the Country Immidiately I tried to connect with the host and The host was very professional and he sent me his contact details/WhatsApp number and address for the property which was not difficult to locate because it is just opposite to the Airport Main Gate and it’s behind the OKADA Office which is very famous in the
