Our stay was very comfortable, Check in was excellent thanks to Nosipho's warm welcome and friendly gesture she demonstrates while performing her duty... The room was neat and clean.. It would not be too bad to add sugar, making coffee for 2 people becomes challenging as there's only 2 sachets of sugar and 2 candarel.

The place was clean but found the bathroom very small. No lift or bag carrier to help with bags up the 2 flights of stairs and no phone in the room to call reception. Breakfast is also over priced. Liked the vending machine at the entrance but it wouldnt take new money notes.

Disappointed that no provision made for cellphone charging, insufficient room refreshments, sugar, tea for two persons. Overall comfortable but a bit overpriced, taking into account that the interest is more about the entertainment offered.
