Pros:

The location for Two Oceans Ultra Marathon - 2km to the start and 200m to the Finish. It was perfect.
A packed breakfast was delivered 4am, which was really appreciated.

Cons:

Nothing.

Exactly what we needed and the perfect stay-over for taking part in Two Oceans race.
Pros:

Breakfast was arranged for 04:00 as we did took part in the Two Oceans Ultra Marathon. The added effort and early wake of the staff was greatly appreciated.

Cons:

Would just like some more seating in the courtyard as one group of 5-6 sat there for the entire afternoon and we could not. It is sooo beautiful in the courtyard.

Good but needs to improve to correspond with the value for money being charged
Pros:

The breakfast was good and the ones serving helpful. I liked the cleanliness of the breakfast place. The atmosphere was quiet which was conducive for my work trip.

Cons:

However, you need to improve on the hygiene for there was hair in the scrambled eggs during one day of breakfast. The windows in the room were dusty.
