Ikogosi Warm Spring was such a lovely experience. I really enjoyed walking around the lush surroundings and seeing where the warm and cold springs meet. The water was warm, the atmosphere was peaceful, and it was honestly nice to just slow down and enjoy the whole experience.

It's really far, and it was difficult to get transport. It's expensive!!! The hotel inside expensive; Transportation outside is terrible. Better to come with your ride. But the staff were helpful. It's because of the staff I gave 3 stars
