    Uncomfortable and over priced.”

    We booked
    We booked for dinner and breakfast, on arrival it was not included in price, although the request was made in the booking. Room smelled like moild, although it was clean. Employees dressed unprofessionally, man at front desk wearing shorts, flpflops and socks - not portraying a good image. The bed is old and worn out, not a good night's rest. Totally over priced, will not visit again.

    Not good value for money. Safe wasn't big enough to store a laptop. No desk to work at for business travellers. Breakfast only served in room and very average. No spa on premises as "advertised". Toiletries only consisted of body wash, but staff brought other items requested

    The stay was truly great i am very happy and would definetly recommend it to everytone.”

    I was completely happy with my stay and even more i loved the bathroom!!! It was totally to my satisfaction. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was was amazing. the room was clean and very spaceous unlike most hotels that feel clastrophobic.
    Not that i didnt like it but i had opened the bar fridge and there were all sorts of beverages to suit everyone and i thought it was such a great idea that they catered for that as a gesture to their guests as i have never encountered that anywhere before, i wanted to commend them for that but i found later that you are liable for what you consume and i thought they were complementary. I hope they can look into that being complementary. :-)
