Very disappointed. Will most likely never go back. This was my second stay there.
Pros:

Got breakfast packs, poor quality food and cheap drinks. Not what I expected to get at the price.

Cons:

They booked me into a room, I opened the door and somebody else was staying there already. Had to go back to reception to get a new room. Quoted R300 per extra guest, had to pay R310, they cannot explain why. Paid the R310, next morning after leaving got a call saying I did not pay. Terrible admin skills.

Pros:

Die Zimmer sind schön und hochwertig eingerichtet. Klimaanlage ist leise. Frühstück war gut. Personal ist super. Wir waren nur für eine Nacht dort, weil wir in einem ordentlichen Hotel übernachten wollten - nur zur Übernachtung. Den Zweck hat es voll und ganz erfüllt.

Cons:

Die Lage ist etwas abgelegen, man muss 15 Minuten fahren um wohin zu kommen. Der Preis war dafür vergleichsweise hoch.

Pretty good but some food options needed if you are going to stay during the week for business.
Pros:

It’s clean with beautiful rooms. No noise from traffic and people. Breakfast was pretty good but the coffee was always lukewarm

Cons:

Very limited options for dinner due to location an no Uber eats. There was only 1 restaurant open with very limited option, food was very average with a small menu
