Pros:

The view of the mountain at night and daylight, was mind blowing and refreshing

Cons:

Our room wasn't cleaned, it was cleaned after we asked about it in the afternoon. The drive to the location was stressful, especially after it has rained.

The food was delicious the place is spotless. The Chef was friendly.

The bed was a bit small for myself and my husband it was not so comfortable. If you can change to the queen size bed. Everything else is perfect 👌

Loved the stay - perfect location for couples to unwind and relax.
Pros:

Peaceful weekend getaway, not too far from JHB. Place is small and quiet - ideal if you want to get away from the busy parts of Gauteng.

Cons:

The last few KM’s of dirt road are not the best. You can get through with a normal car, but just need to be careful and take it easy/slow.

It was ok, place is neat and clean however I would stay there again .much better places for the pri
Pros:

The location is awesome except for the roads getting there.

The beds are small

Staff is friendly.

The menu is limited the food was horrible, and over priced, actually got sick after supper..

Cons:

The food. Was terrible and got sick after supper.
No one even tries to help with luggage etc
The roads is bad.
Far away from other places that's why the food is so expensive.
Would have been great if it was good, don't mine paying for good food.
Limited menu.
