Your questions, answered

What should I check before using any apartment booking app in Nigeria?

Look for host identity verification, a payment system that holds your money until check-in rather than paying the host directly upfront, and real guest reviews on the listing — not just photos.

How is Dwelns different from other apps like Airbnb in Nigeria?

Dwelns verifies host identity (including NIN checks), reviews listings before they go live, and holds payments in escrow until you check in — details worth comparing across any app you're considering.

Are prices on these apps usually in Naira?

On Dwelns, yes — listings are priced directly in Naira by hosts, which avoids the currency conversion and card fees some international platforms add.

Can I read reviews before booking on a shortlet app?

Yes — check a listing's guest reviews and overall rating, and use the guest favorite filter to surface stays other guests have rated highly.
