Breakfast very poor cheap sliced pan no other bread. Processed cheese wrapped we call them easy singles at home. Fruit an insult tinned peaches and tinned pineapple and portion so small in a glass. Dogs poo outside our bedroom in the morning there are two dogs there one of them jumped into bed beside our son in his room. Body lotion watered down. Our first night in SA and we found it v disappointing
We selected this hotel because it is very close to NMMU where we attended a function. The booking through Trivago was easy and worked well.
We were welcomed when we arrived and shown to our room.
The hotel is in a delightful setting with a well maintained garden.
Parking was secure and we had our own remote control for the gate.
There was a full and delicious breakfast served with a smile.
