Fenomenal!
Pros:

A localização do alojamento é muito boa e facilita os movimentos para os dois grandes centros comerciais de Nelspruit. Dificilmente a pessoa se perde. O pequeno almoço é muito rico e diversificado.

Pros:

Loved everything about the hotel. The staff was amazing, and an extra shout out to Koos the barman. He was extra amazing and catered to all our needs. we had a family room for 3 people and it was so spacious.

It is passable for a short stay. But expected much better from a Protea and Marriot branded 4 star hotel
Pros:

Clean and decent

Cons:

For a 4 star hotel, rooms are not very well done, outdated. Shower is put in like an after thought, lighting in room I s terrible.

Overall satisfy accept the one night!
Pros:

Clean and Fresh

Cons:

Our neighbours next door kerp us awake until 2 in the morning (slam doors) scream, maybe fight! That is actually unaccepted but otherwise good - no complaints!
