Posizione e possibilità di hike

Great for one night stay. Clean and comfortable
Pros:

Clean comfortable bed. Friendly staff. Easy going atmosphere.. there is only a communal bathroom but to my surprise very clean and not crowded at all although the hotel was fully booked. The facility and communal areas were comfortable. The pool is a great added benefit. We enjoyed the stay and as family of 4 it was perfect for 1 night..

Cons:

The breakfast is very plain and anything additional you have to pay. I must have missed the small print but expected a full breakfast service.
The rooms were clean and comfortable but a aircon to cool it down would have been a great added benefit.

Pros:

We loved the beautiful nature and greenery. The lunch and braai were absolutely delicious.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the term “hotel” was misleading, as this is more of a backpackers. You only receive a room and must share all other facilities. The photos suggested a more spacious setting, which did not meet our expectations. Due to this, we chose not to stay for the two nights we had booked.
