Loved it, central, clean and lovely staff, just needs some more accessible options.
Pros:

The rooms are very clean and pretty spacious, the staff were lovely and it is located pretty central to the places I needed to visit.

Cons:

I think the rooms could be fitted with a microwave, cutlery and crockery. Additionally, thankfully I only had a carry on bag because there were only stairs up to the room and it would be hard for someone with disabilities, the elderly or someone with heavy luggage.

Pros:

I loved the welcoming and helpful staff. The food is excellent! The bed and pillows are comfortable. It was very close to Red Cross Children's Hospital, which was the reason for our visit.

Great location, great bed, terrible free WiFi and noisy.
Pros:

Clean. Nice bed. Decent room size.

Cons:

Unpleasant smells - not sure what from - perhaps the carpets. The free WiFi is terrible. I could not do anything aside from sending or receiving emails on it. I stayed for 4 nights, and of the 4, 2 of them were very noisy between 10 and 12 PM due to noisy guests. The staff did absolutely nothing about the noise...

Good stay, Great location, Rooms comfortable and Clean
Pros:

We did not eat breakfast at the hotel but it looked very good.
The room was clean and comfortable.
It was in a very central location for our needs.
The view onto the golf course next door was great.
The parking easily accessible and parking bays plentiful.
The restaurant on site was wonderful - real South African steak house

Cons:

No porter service was offered to us.
No lift and we had to haul our bags up and down two floors via the stairs.
Bar and drinks service in the evening was a little slow and disorganised.
We had no other complaints.

Good location. Bed hard.
Pros:

Good location. Easy checkin and good breakfast option. Requested a slightly later check out of 12noon which was sorted with no problem or charge.

Cons:

Very hard bed. Horrible vibration/humming in the building which sounds like an internal ventilation system but meant I could not sleep very well at all.
