Worst ever experience!!!
Pros:

I have been staying at your facility since 2008. I have never felt so humiliated as today. I went down to your restaurant facility at 20:30. I waited for 20 minutes while people coming in after me were served. I eventually left. This was my last visit. Regards. PS, I am leaving a day earlier than my booking.

Simply not worth staying at Road Logde - N1 City (Cape Town), 2nd time to try offer redemption but never again!!
Pros:

Brand new renovated place with non-working air conditioner, works for a short bit and shuts off with an error.

No toilet brush in the room so hygiene and cleanliness is problematic.

Person in the room over the passage smoking marijuana, I reported it immediately and managent just spoke politely to the people to not do that and that's it. I was offered a breakfast and room change just in case it happens again, opposed to enforcing the non-smoking policy, let along smoking marijuana in the rooms. Poor management of that situation.

Security guard is your only way in and out, when he is available, he does an OK job, but when he goes for a walk, you will be left sitting outside or locked inside until he returns. Rather frustrating to get in and out.

Pros:

The noise levels until 3am in the morning was horrific ! When I approached the Manager the next day I was told the security was outside. Unacceptable ! That was my 1st and last stay at The road lodge. You lost a client who spread the word to other possible clients who.

N1 City Lodge
Pros:

I’ve stayed there numerous times but this time the receptionist (namely Olga) was unfriendly and just complained the whole time about going home.
I arrived early at 13:30, and she was on the phone for quite a while. She then said check in is at 2 and no rooms are ready, so I happily waited in the dining area, understanding that I had arrived early. After 2pm she said there were still no rooms available. The next shift arrived at 2pm, and Chloe took over after hand over. There was immediately a room available and I then checked in around ten past. Chloe was friendly and efficient.
The hotel is under renovation and noisy during the day but that’s not an issue at all for me. Other than that, the room was perfectly clean and my stay was enjoyable, and I will stay there again.

Pros:

Having to book online and have to wait 2 hours until out booking will be received by the hotel is ridiculous on top of that the receptionist did not try hwr outmost best to assist but rather tell us we need to wait for 2 hours to gwt booked in. We had to chat to expedia to assist and even with that it was a mission
