The place is standard and the price is high despite spending so much money there over R8,000+ I was harassed over nothing after booking 3 rooms in 1 day and spending so much at the bar. I was called over 10+ times regarding hair dye on towels found on the bathroom bin and yet the guests who stayed in the other rooms had braids, the girls and other room young boys from my family stayed in. The hotel must wash and bleach white towels from stains of bleach or wine but in my case, it was made like I should pay extra to take the towels for washing for the dye found on bathroom towels. I don't know if this is now a racial thing or just money seeking but I won't succumb to it and for the key it was taken by mistake and is returned. The management attitude is with such disrespect and with no regard considering so much money being spent over in such a short period. I will never book here as they don't deserve my money so people should watch over this place if you are a big booking from the black community

We did not have breakfast or any meals so cannot comment
Noisy guests in and around facilities. Motorbikes and cars revving and people loud in the hotel. Bedside lights FAR too bright (they are spotlights.)

All of the staff were so friendly and helpful.
The only problem I had was I suffer from my back. So not having a couch in the house, we abit difficult. Bt my stay was still 110 percent. I would do it over and over again.

Room very clean and modern. Staff are helpful and friendly.
Parking can be difficult when they are busy or have functions on. The room was also quite dark.
7.0
The facility was clean and the room was big.
They are too strict about their sheets it makes you uncomfortable to even sleep on them. They have rules where you can’t even leave a single stain or they charge you.
They also have a bar downstairs and the noise could be heard from my room.

Very efficient check in. Clean rooms, nice showers. Safe part of town.
Excellent value for money.
