A great stay. The only thing I would say is the breakfast food could be a little more fresh. For the price of the breakfast. The food could be a little more fresh. The hotel staff and everything did a great job. I would restay

Horrible, greedy hotel

Staying at this hotel is an extremely unpleasant experience. Their business model seems to be charging a large deposit (300R per night, payable in advance) and then looking for reasons to keep it. The desk staff are more like bouncers, and I have heard horror stories of people being locked in the reception area facing demands for money. They did not find an excuse to keep my deposit, but you still get constantly held up whilst they perform various 'checks' to try to find things to charge you for, and then you have to wait multiple days for them to return the deposit to your card (even though they force you to pay in full before accessing your room). The rooms are also old and bad. It's just a terrible, rotten place which stinks of criminality and, as you can see by its recent reviews on various platforms, is going down the toilet fast. Please don't stay there and just allow it to go bankrupt quietly.

Staff were blunt to the point of rudeness. More interested in the smoking/ mini bar procedure than my stay. I won’t stay here again. Unprofessional, unfriendly.

My second stay in this hotel - once again I found the room and facilities to be excellent supported by lovely staff. One minor suggestion: the TV in the room is tiny and located 7m from the bed. A larger format screen would be appreciated.

The room was very comfortable and nicely appointed with newly renovated bathroom. Bed was very comfortable. Tea making area with sink provided, combined with the wardrobe was neat and convenient but could do with a light above it. TV is tiny for the size of the room. Minibar provided was adequately supplied but overpriced. Breakfast was more than adequate with a large variety of selections and I did note variety over several days.

Big white Afrikaaner guy on reception needs to turn down his passive aggressive attitude to being challenged on hotel policy around deposits. He lords it over the rest of the black staff around him and thinks he can do the same with paying guests. This hotel is charging a deposit to guests credit cards not as a shadow charge but as a full charge. Then when you are leaving they want the card number, expiry date and CVV number with which anyone could charge to your card. Banks, and I work for one clearly tell you not to give people this detail is all that’s needed to charge your account. Once you give them the detail they then tell you it will take 5 to 7 days for the refund to reach your account. information's. What this hotel should be doing is putting a shadow transaction on your account, then removing it in the day you leave. What’s probably happened in the past is people have disputed charges and banks have sided with customers so now they charge the full deposit. It’s a risk for every guest that these details fall into the wrong hands. For this reason and the attitude of the only white guy at reception I won’t be staying again, and advise any tourists to steer clear if you don’t want fraudulent transactions appearing any time after you’ve stayed here.
