• Shanique (2/5): Everything … false advertise ! The pool was not in good condition as advertised on the website. We had no towels in the - Nothing at all Everything
• Matebe (1/5): Bad - The location The smell as I entered the building was bad. The 1st room they gave me was bad bathroom walls and ceiling was full of mold. The bad smell was worse the wall paint was coming off. I asked for another room the lady was not impressed when I did that, bathroom walls, ceiling and window were full of mold. The room didn't look like the pictures. My bed was not made and the room was not cleaned. No kettle or coffee in the room. The people of the guesthouse made a lot of noise it looked like the people were staying there. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

• Odwa (2/5): Very poor -
• Leon (3/5): No rules, brothel like. No decency. - Close to our location. People in nextdoor room made horrible noise with furniture,tv, chatting. A woman was either raped or attempted murder took place. Horrible sounds, kept us from having any sleep. (From 22h00 to approx 03h00)I don't think the establishment caters for European people, who likes silence and dignity.

The room didn't has at least bath towels and floor mat, considering I was traveling with my child, had to focus on her not slipping and falling, after bath, She was just miserable. Very unpleasant, I must say

• Colleen (1/5): Bad - Nothing The pictures are deceiving did not see any swimming pool as indicated in the advertisement, I only stayed 1 night as I was covered in bed bug bites after my first night. I then gave off the key the next morning to a guy asleep on the couch not even acknowledging what I was saying. The cupboards small terrible like mold did not make use of it. Curtains are old and dusty. The place needs a revamp and I will not recommend it to anybody.

The other people at the lodge who I doubt were guests had a noisy party until the early hours of the morining. I doubt if this place is really a lodge. Everything, read my response in the above previous question.

• Daames (6/5): It's a good place for a short stay, good value for money. - The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. It is situated in a nice quiet, family friendly neighborhood with parks close by. Our room had a nice view of the sunrise. Free parking. Easy working self-catering kitchen facilities. Overall good value for money. The room was clean but could use a deep cleaning as ceilings and windows were a bit dirty. The pool was dirty and couldn't be used. The curtains to the room were very thin, so you couldn't have blackout darkness during the day. Service was mediocre.
