In general for the price we paid it was worth it but the rooms could use a bit of more cleaning.
Pros:

I liked that even though they gave our room to someone else by mistake, they were able to rectify the issue swiftly and accommodate us when we needed to stay longer than the stipulated check-in time. There were additional fees for that but it was worth it. The location is great with a nice view depending on the room you get. The staff were very helpful.

Cons:

Although the accommodation seemed clean from the get-go. The colour of the flooring hides how dirty it is. I dropped my phone on the floor and when i picked it up it was filthy. The toilet in the room we were in had a bad smell.

Was good and as expected.
Pros:

The room was great. The fridge though was not working but it did not really matter because we wanted a place to sleep after our social evening.

Cons:

Nothing they can do something about. The steep at the gate but this has nothing to do with the venue:)

I will not recommend this place to anyone.
Pros:

The view was nice

Cons:

1.We paid for a 3 sleeper room, however when we got there after 10 at night, they gave our room to someone else.
2. When we expressed our concerns to the owner of the place, we were told that she is doing us a favor by letting us in after 10pm. When we asked where is the third person suppose to sleep, she said it's none of her concern, she will move us to another room the next day ( we booked for 2 nights)
4. You are not suppose to leave the premises after 10pm, otherwise they don't let u in.
5.We were not given a remote key for the gate, when we asked for one,they told us to pay an extra R200, which was not explained or stated on booking.com.or when we arrived at the premises.
6.The bedding had spiderwebs on. The blankets were dirty, we could not even use it.
7.The lady that worked at the front desk was not welcoming
