Verified traveler

Rather dissapointed
The room was clean however the safe did not work. I did not feel as there was no visible security on site on the night that I stayed there. The rooms are not sound proof. If you like the sound of passing traffic and the sounds of people fornicatting. I would suggest you pass then. There was no back up electricity as there was load shedding (no electricity) at the time. The breakfast selection was bland and the selection was minimal.

Não é um hotel, mas ganha em cortesia!
Se você procura um hotel, esse não é o lugar! Não é bem localizado, longe de tudo! Mas realmente as pessoas são muito simpáticas e fizeram o possível pra nos atender bem e nos ajudar com informações sobre o local !

Básico
Apesar da simpatia das atendentes, a qualidade do serviço deixa a desejar: camas, limpeza geral e a ausência de alguém na recepção cria um pouco de medo
