Worst experience
Pros:

Nothing. The host/lady is unfriendly

Cons:

The first room that we entered, omw. Whe she switched on the light, the cochroaches scattered. There were a few still on the wall.

I asked for another room. The host looked and sounded irritated. The second room had cockroaches walking in the shower and there were a few walking in the room. I didn't sleep. My partner was very tired and we came there after 12 do it was already late to get another place. We left at about 6 (that morning). NEVER AGAIN!!!

I would not be coming back here.
Pros:

The outdoor pool area, I think that was the only highlight.

Cons:

Firstly, the bed, consisted of 2 single beds making a double bed.
There was only 1 towel in the room.
There was no crockery or cutlery, it had to be requested.
There was no proper ventilation in the room.

Perfect stay in Goodwood
Pros:

I liked the cleanliness of the place, and the responsiveness received from the staff. I also liked that the room came equipped with a fridge, microwave and TV. It was my second time booking there.

Cons:

I didn't like that the room had no fan for cooling in the hot Cape Town summer, and I also saw blood on one pillow case which is not nice to experience. I also didn't like waiting for my room to be prepared when I got there on day 1. Apparently someone had booked it before me.
