Guest Reviews

• Duduzile (8/5): It was a good stay . - It was clean . The staff were friendly . The view is beautiful. The level of noise from other tenants was out of control. We could not sleep the whole night on our first night. They limit the amount of coffees and sugar they give in the room .
• Jacobs (3/5): booking.com neglected to inform me that the site was under construction. Refused my refund, - Nothing booking.com neglected to inform me that the site was under construction. Refused my refund, very basic rooms with no fridge, microwave, toilet seat broken, broken door, really poor condition of units
• Agostinho (7/5): Good -
• Phiri (10/5): Nice and relaxing place to be - I liked everything about the place I'll definitely go back there Nothing
• Bafana (1/5): Bad -
• Sizakele (6/5): Pleasant - The place was clean 👌 the network was bad and no wifi The was no wifi at the place and very limited tv channels only 3
• Phindile (3/5): Poor - The shower The bed,swimming time
• Aslam (10/5): Exceptional -
• Thembi (8/5): Very good - We really had a good time, the whole place looks beautiful and neat. Wifi connection is a bit of a problem
• Kamogelo (6/5): It was okay. - It’s clean. Value for money. No microwave in rooms. No fridge in rooms. Loud patrons quite disturbing as not all of us are there for leisure.
• Tiisetso (1/5): Lack of Management Control on Unruly Guests - The place is well located and clean. 1.The fact that I called reception twice due to noise made by this group of old women acting like teenagers. And nothing was done about it. Being awakened by noise at 6 AM while you only managed to fall asleep at 4am. The noise continued throughout the day. All other guests experienced the same toucher. 2. Congested parking, on my day of check out, I had to go awake the bus drivers because I was parked-in and had to wait 30 minutes before the bus moved. The room did not have microwave, Iron nor mini fridge, which are basic essential even though the place is self catering. 3.The towels are old and torn.
• Portia (8/5): Very good - The place is clean, friendly staff, easy to locate. I would recommend it to other people and I'm definitely going to co.e back again. The price is reasonable. No backup up.for loadshedding, we stayed in the dark for the duration of loadshedding till the power was back on.
• Zimkhitha (10/5): Exceptional -
• Puleng (1/5): Bad -
• Lettez (1/5): Sleepless night - There was a ANC youth league event,it finished between 8 & 9 pm,from there on it was party till 5am.No warning from reception or anybody else in regards to the noise.People standing next to the unit windows making noise with alcohol drinks & all.We even got calls from the people we booked for to ask for other places and that was after 11pm.They were really tired in the morning when we fetched them. Does the property even have rules & regulations ? Or is the property for all night partying ?

• Malematja (5/5): Uncomfortable, but can improve - Location is great, safe and close to many amenities 1. When we arrived, the room was not ready. We had to wait at reception with our baby until the room was cleaned 2. The shower head was broken. No mat in the bathroom and water would spill onto the floor from the shower 3. I don't know about other rooms but the room we got gets very humid at night, No aircon, there's just a noisy ceiling fan. 4. The beds are extremely uncomfortable (sqeaky and it caves in at the middle) 5. There was a wasp nest with wasps at the entrance door of the room (No.11) 6. You can hear your neighbors and Cars hooting for assistance at the gate
