Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was comfortable with good water pressure in the shower, always a plus. The restaurant on site was convenient, the food avove average but not exceptional. The wait staff and door artendants were friendly and top notch. The hotel is surrounded by shops, and I especially appreciated it being close to Shoprite supermarket.

Julius

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were friendly and welcoming, which was a highlight of the stay. However, the beds were quite firm and not very comfortable for us. The hotel is located in a part of town that isn’t easily accessible, and the parking situation was different from what we expected, which made arrival a bit inconvenient.
