My stay at Riverside Lodge and Conference Centre
Pros:

The place was close to where we had a function and to check in and out was not tedious

Cons:

The WiFi connection left a lot to be desired... It was slow and logs out most of the time..

The bed had oily stains, the toilet made a huge noise for a long time every time we used it, the air
Pros:

The breakfast should be included or an option should be to include it on the booking

Cons:

The bed had oily stains, the toilet made a huge noise for a long time every time we used it, the aircon was not clear on how to increase it and it was freezing, the toilet system and pipes and the oily bed was not nice.
