Christina

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was the worst place i have ever stayed it, not clean, facilities were minimal. Everything was patched up, doors had been kicked in and a bodge repair. The fridge was patched up, worked but door was hard to open. No facilities to wash up plates etc The walls and doors were filthy. The whole place needs complete refurbishing from top to bottom. Even the bathroom left a lot to be desired. Even a staff member said the place needed shutting down for poor maintenance, this i totally agree with.

Was like living in a slum. No flyscreens meant getting bitten by mosquitoes. Glass is pool which resulted in my daughter cutting her foot. Paid for 2 beds and got 1. Not family friendly at all. No breakfast. No WiFi password given.

Rodney

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was terrible. It looked absolutely nothing like what's shown on any website. It was old and dated, dark and dingy with the only venterlation the window in the bathroom with a piece of curtain screwed over, and the door, if you were "happy" to leave that open, and it also smelled awful. The "wardrobe " door was tapped shut, the drawers in the "kitchenette" were screwed shut. There was only one desert spoon, one forlk, one tea spoon, two knives, one dinner plate, one bread and butter plate two bowls, two cups, two saucers, two drinking glasses, two wine glasses and a kettle. I could go on!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was falling apart, has a terrible smell, is presented poorly, needs desperately to be updated. Light fittings need cleaning / replacing (one was held together with tape) Bathroom window needs replacing Paint in all areas is peeling off. Where repainting has been done it looks like a child did it with overpainting everywhere. Fridge has rust in it. TV has a light that blinds you in the night. Curtains in the rear of the room are offcut pieces of fabric. Tiles in the bathroom are missing and painted over poorly. Bathroom fittings old and worn. Storage drawers falling apart. No flywire screen on the only widow that can be opened (bathroom). Noise at 6 am from someone collecting laundry. Front desk not manned, ring the bell and nothing happens. Ring the phone and get someone who isnt there. Clean up the carpark area, get rid of the old car being stored there.
