Neighborhood overview
Adjiringanor and the surrounding East Legon is considered one of the best neighborhoods in Accra. It is a developing suburb and a residential area. KINDLY NOTE THAT THIS LISTING IS NOT IN THE CENTER OF TOWN AND ITS NOT NEAR OSU! Our guests have enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and the sound of birds in waking them up in the morning. If you want to be closer to Osu, please consider another listing. Close by are great restaurants (Thai House, Cahaya, Coco Vanilla, Honeysuckle) and A&C Square shopping center. Design b+b is located a short drive away from Accra landmarks (without/with traffic). Note that these are reasonable estimations based on safe driving! Traffic makes every trek longer, but I can help you to navigate to the city outside of peak traffic times. - A&C Shopping Center East Legon (5/10 minutes) - Accra Mall (15/30 minutes) - Airport (20/45 minutes) - Osu (30min/1 hour)
