Terrible Value for money

5.0

I paid R4125 for 2 nights with breakfast included. This in my opinion is ridiculously high for a for a 3 star place of this calibre. Especially when there 4 star hotels in the area which offer more for a cheaper price tag.

Scary at night and security not visible. There is no one that can assist you at night. The numbers provided ring with no answer.
