Pros:

It was clean

Cons:

Firstly the receptionist Nonhlakanipho was unfriendly. When I walked in to check in I told her I didn't have my ID but before I could say I only had my driver's license, she rudely told me I won't check in without it, my partner asked if she could take hers, she said fine but ended up not taking it. I asked for a shower cap and she rudely replied and said they didn't have. I asked for a toilet brush she said they didn't have. I asked for a toilet bin for sanitary pads she said I must look for it by the bed. Later on I asked for an iron and she said she was busy until I insisted and then she assisted.

On facilities, there was no basic things e. G shower cap. The water was not hot. It was lukewarm. The carpet was wet and uncomfortable to walk on
