Pros:

Only the bed

Cons:

Broken plugs, old furniture, broken chair...
Old doors and the room was not what I expected plus the carpet had stains ,plus there was no table and chair as it was advertised in booking.com , worse the AC was broken I had to change rooms , even the room I was given was nonsense. I did not enjoy my stay and I did not enjoy my money's worth instead of a hotel it felt like I was in a run down motel. Do better please and before the receptionist gives someone a key to their room be sure to check if it's in good condition

Cons:

the lady with dreads she needs to learn customer care, room G5, the fact that i have to act like a bitch to get a room a paid for and when we do the microwave is not working and it was one thing that i ask for, R50 voucher for breakfast and after fighting that when it was made R150, itjo i didn't enjoy been there same, and Noice my God
