Our double rooms are very large and we have the capacity to convert them into dormitories to accommodate up to six people comfortably. Group numbers in multiples of five and staying for five days or more days get 5% discount on dormitory rates.

Directions

From the Accra Kotoka International Airport, the easiest way to get to the house is by taxi cab.

The taxis have a station at the airport. There are, however, no city train or bus services from the airport to town.

Darkuman is a 'borough' on the western part of Accra. It is about 10km to the west of the Accra Kotoka International Airport.

To get to Darkuman:
From the Airport, take a taxi or one of the airport cabbies. Tell the driver you are going to DARKUMAN TOP PETROL FILLING STATION on the Darkuman Main Road,

At the TOP OIL Filling Station, facing the north, AKORLU CLOSE is 2nd turn on your left. When you are on the Akorlu Close, follow the sign or ask anybody. We are about about 30 metres from the Darkuman Main Road.

You may call us from the TOP OIL Filling Station. We are less than 50metres away.

If the guest advises us of his/her flight details ahead of his/her arrival, we shall arrange to pick him/her up at the airport.

You may call (contact details will be on the confirmation email)and you will be picked from anywhere at any time.
