River Rooms - Chilled and Relaxed - Colchester - 5km from Elephant Park

Reception (hand-over of keys) at the local restaurant was unfriendly, impersonal. No greeting or "How was your trip?". Manager sat in his office in front of his PC but did not come out. Very unprofessional and disappointing. On the other hand, the room was modern, clean, comfortable.

The accommodation was neat, clean and well presented.

Difficulties finding the property at night. Bad signage!!! A small problem with alarm.

Keep remeber it is self catering, even the owners can help you with taht and are very friendly. The owners can ofer you good advives and fre kayaks for exapmple. Amazing atractions nerby, as for example South Africa Highlights like Addo Elephant Park or Schotia Game Reserve, or Alexandia Dune - strongly recommended both of them, do not skip them while seightseeing the area (that can take you up to 3 days in the area)

Tiny room, shared space

At arrival the staff who was supposed to give the key, was so unorganized. No one explained to us wich room was ours we had to literally fit the key in all the rooms to find the correct one. We were only informed the morning of the day we booked that there is no water.... We had to use water from n tank just to flush the toilet. Glasses and cups was unwashed..... So disappointed.
