            Rooms were clean, but not warm or welcoming. Breakfast was included, but portions were small and not very tasty. Garden is spectacular during the day.

            Shocking”

            They’re is a complete lack of cleanliness at the peak of COVID. Every surface was covered in dust. The bedding was not changed at all and had dirt and footprints on it. There were fleas in the beds. The cooking facilities were beyond insufficient. They do not state that there are no cooking facilities and theN made us feel like criminals as we needed to braai. We had to request permission daily and then on the last day they put the braai at the very back of the premises in an alley we we had to climb through. The toilet paper was not replaced. We were only given 2 forks for a family of 4. I would not recommend these facilities for a family as there is one room with no where to eat or sit. Do not recommend.
