Everyone there is friendly, kind, and extremely helpful throughout my stay. The room I stayed in was lovely and the bed was comfortable, although it does dip in a bit when you lie down. Overall I had a pleasant experience and would happily stay again.

- Nhlanhla (1/5): Racist - Literally nothing at all Unfortunately, the services were subpar, largely due to the conduct of the elderly lady residing there. She was consistently rude and unaccommodating, making our stay very uncomfortable. Her behavior was evident from the moment we arrived.
While I understand that everyone has their own way, I believe it's essential to treat all guests with respect, regardless of their background. I'd appreciate it if you could look into this matter.
I don't recommend black person going there maybe white person will be accomodated...im sorry to say this but that elder granny must just go and enjoyed herself somewhere not working with guest becouse she is not nice at all

Was only told just before check out there was water stored under the bathroom sink to flush the toilet.
They should not be accepting guests when there is no water. Could not even get a wash!

- Freedom (1/5): Horrible place!!! - Shitty place, I wouldn’t advice anyone to book this place, service terrible, the owner is desperate for money he doesn’t care about hospitality at all! Terrible service, false advertising, no back-up generator or alternatives. They don’t care about our stay, they are hungry for money!
- Lushaba (7/5): Good - Close to the mall.
