Good stop over and rest but really need to cater more halaal or vegetarian
Pros:

This property is our stop over on Garden Route nice to see the revamp . Booking in was amazing staff very friendly and helpful . But need some attention to TV signals and picture quality . Room service was disappointing as room 102 tried to order and was told they couldn’t and that was before 7 pm . We in room 101 got to order but got the wrong stuff instead of toasted cheese got chicken cheese and had a fee of R30 extra plus gave a tip . Only found out the next morning that our guest didn’t have
supper 😪. Would be nice if the restaurant gave a bit more halaal meats / cold meat or know what butcher it come from . We pay the same amount of money for rooms not really fair when you think about it .

Cons:

Always very clean and maintained and pleasant smelling in the air

I loved the location, east of accessibility to the CBD and the general attitude of the employees.
Pros:

Location, Hospitality and the Breakfast was made with love.

Cons:

The Gym and its equipment needs some attention. Couldn’t exercise as they machinery was either not working or not configured properly.

Relaxing, but a little crowded in the family room.
Pros:

The hotel met expectations. We enjoyed being able to have a massage on site.

Cons:

Meal options for vegetarians limited. Vegetarian food was mostly restricted to side dishes, while the meat was clearly the main focus of meals.
Family interleading room somewhat small - no door between rooms which made privacy difficult to manage with a teenager.
Bathroom aslo quite small for family of 4 sharing. Although we were 5 booked we only found 2 bath towels and 2 hand towels in the room on arrival - we did manage to get some extras from the housekeeping staff.
