Pros:

The cleanliness of the premise, it was spotless. The garden and lawn was refreshing.

Cons:

The receptionists watched us dragging luggages instead of assisting with the trolly. Secondly, they made me pay R650 for 8 balloons and non alcohol campaign without candles. Whoever decorated the room must never be allowed again. They spoiled my surprise for my woman who was turning 30. Lastly, the management must consider upgrading their TVs with recent ones like smart TV or add more sporting channels. The current system they are using is outdated for young people, we have Netflix or sports.

Disappointed stay
Pros:

I like the location.

Cons:

The shower had no pressure and the water was shooting out in all directions. When we got to breakfast. It was ready at 7am. The staff were still setting up. Took about 7-10min of waiting for them to bring everything out and start the egg station. We also booked two rooms on the same booking and we were allocated rooms far from each other.

It was good, I liked the outside a lot
Pros:

Food (Breakfast and dinner) was good. The room was good but the shower room is too small. Otherwise the room was comfortable , the heater was working. Your TV does not have many chanel options, not sure if you can consider increasing

Cons:

The shower was too small, it was difficult to shower because the space is small especially for big bodied people. If you could also include a microwave in the rooms, it would be great.
