Pros:

It's around nice area and quiet
Safe

Cons:

1. I was charged extra R300 for an early check-in, despite me making arrangements and speaking to one of them before I arrived.
2. The bed wasn't comfortable and there was no iron in the room.
3. Those small black/Grey small pillows had white stains and didn't look clean.

The receptionist is a scammer
Pros:

The receptionist is very rude

Cons:

I booked online with my friend but she came to join me later that day she asked me to pay 400 for her to come in, but the room was for two people. She said it’s 200 per visitor
