Pros:

I unfortunately left my phone power bank on the floor in our room no:6.
We have called the reception and they found it. We will pay for couriers to return it to us once we get back home in Knysna. 🌸Bev

Top hotel!
Pros:

Zeer vriendelijk personeel, kamers waren fantastisch, lekker welkomstdrankje!

Cons:

Er was geen afzuiger in de badkamer, alles blojft nat waardoor je voorzichtig moet zijn met lopen.
