• Nelson (7/5): - Tv Bads
• Artem (10/5): -
• Pilisiwe (5/5): - The location, not far from the beach and it is close to the restaurants, shops, fuel station, a taxi rank, spa's The showers were a nightmare, one had lukewarm water. The other one had very hot water, when mixing cold water it is just impossible. You end up showering on cold water. We were not allowed to take photos or videos while dancing on the patio so we had to go take photos at the beach. Our room was across the dining area, and the lights could not be switched off, and I could not sleep due to the light reflecting on the windows.

• Penrith (9/5): -
• , (7/5): -
• Karen Carstens (3/5): - Nothing. The shower barely worked. The notice said, only have a 2 min shower, but it took longer than that to even heat up, and there wasn't much water coming out the shower head. The bathroom taps were loose, and the doors in general, of all the rooms were hard to open and close, so there was banging all night. It was extremely noisy, was near a busy road and next to a park, where undesirables drank and made a noise.
• neha bunkar (5/5): - The room is clean and tidy, and the shared bathroom is also well maintained. There are several rules, such as no eating in the room, that feel overly restrictive—guests are generally responsible enough to maintain cleanliness. The side table was shaky, which was inconvenient, and some staff interactions came across as rude. Additionally, once inside the main gate, other properties aren't clearly indicated, making it confusing for first-time visitors
• Bernadette (8/5): - It was very central Abit more cleanliness would be appreciated
• Angel Thuleka (8/5): The manager was accommodating - Location and facilities Nothing
• Travis (7/5): -
• Leonie (9/5): -

• Tintswalo (3/5): not a good for me - No breakfast self-caretaring Room i sleep was small and barely no room to move
• Marcus (9/5): -
• Kamil (7/5): -
• nisaa (7/5): Not my kaya - The manager was helpful. Communal kitchen was nice had freezers that I needed to store my frozen food in. Bed was comfortable. Has a bar fridge in the room. My bedroom had a private bathroom. I didn't feel too safe there, felt my car would get broken into. Needs some maintenance, especially the bathroom. Water took too long to heat up.
• lackey (8/5): -
• Henning (10/5): Happy Times - Friendly staff, hot shower, not to noisy, everything needed was available. Centrally located. Zero
• Chevalier (6/5): Une courte nuit-étape sur la Garden Route, efficace pour séjour court à petit budget - Simple pour une "nuit-étape" sur la Garden Route, ou pour profiter d'aller visiter le sanctuaire Monkeyland à 20-30 minutes d'ici. Check-in autonome, donc on arrive quand on veut, pas d'heure limite ! Douche à l'extérieur de la chambre, et bruits bizarre (comme un petit animal dans les murs ou autre, je ne sais pas ce c'était) pendant la nuit.
• ogier (7/5): very happy with the choice - Self catering facility and very spacious for a couple. nearby cbd and short drive to beach
• Claire (8/5): -
