Pros:

Konum olarak Aquila Game Reserve'e yakın. Aquila yerine burda kalmak çok daha ekonomik.

Cons:

Odalar fena olmamakla birlikte banyo alanı kötü ve eski, ayrıca odadan ayıran kapısı da yok. Keza tesis yakınlarında Aquila Game reserve haricinde gezip görecek, yemek yenilebilecek hiçbir imkan yok, her yönüyle tesise mahkumsunuz.

Pros:

The coffee shop was great and the restaurant staff were friendly.

Cons:

No bath mat / bathroom mat for when we get out of the shower; when asked for one we were told we don’t have those.
Hot water lasted for one shower only.
Shower looks grubby and not maintained.
No shower curtain.
No lamp shades on bedside lamps
Lighting in bathroom terrible.
No mirror in bedroom.
Could hear neighbours as if they were in our room with us.
No electric blankets.
Bath towels smelt like cigarette smoke.
No small bin for refuse.
Unit needs attention overall.
