Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Multiple reviews mention dust under the bed, urine smell around the toilet, unclean carpet and a room door left open — cleanliness was a clear negative theme.
Service
9.6
Staff repeatedly praised as friendly, helpful and going the extra mile; a single report of an unhelpful receptionist is outweighed by many positive service comments.
Location
8.8
Several guests highlighted a great/remote and quiet location and convenient grounds for walking; generally positive location sentiment.
Room Quality
7.5
Rooms described as spacious and nice by many but with issues: smells on ground floor after rain, water-pressure problems, swollen/poorly closing door and carpet cleanliness concerns.
Amenities
7.8
Good amenities noted (spa, swimming) but some negatives: noisy ice machine, gym maintenance needs, underwhelming game drive and snack platter.
Value for Money
8.8
Multiple mentions of good value and price/quality balance; overall perceived as a good value stay.
Food and Beverage
9.3
Breakfast and overall food repeatedly praised as excellent; minor complaints (missing syrup/honey at breakfast, snack platter) are isolated.
Overall Experience
8.9
Most guests report a very positive stay and willingness to return, with a few impactful negatives (cleanliness, noise, room issues) reducing but not overturning the overall positive impression.

A place to be
Pros:

I loved everything about the place. Special mention to Ian who welcomed us at the reception. He was wonderful. The restaurant at the place is also great. Would definitely recommend. Especially since it caters everyone. Whether you are a couple, a family, alone... everyone. Also, their breakfast is great.

Cons:

Nothing of sorts. Only didn't like the fact that we couldn't stay longer at the place since we only booked a short stay

Perfect
Pros:

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at TCL, and I wanted to share some highlights:

- The food was exceptional; breakfast in particular was delightful and catered perfectly to our family’s tastes.
- The restaurant menu offered a great variety, allowing us to find something for everyone.
- Our rooms were impeccably clean, and the beds were wonderfully comfortable, contributing to a relaxing atmosphere.
- Lastly, I would like to commend your staff. Their friendliness and kindness truly made a difference in our experience.

We are looking forward to visiting soon.

Cons:

We have experienced low water pressure in the shower, and there have been instances where the water has completely stopped while bathing BUT came back after few minutes.

the chair at the study desk is in need of repair, as it is unstable and not functioning properly.
