Decent stay for 6 days

Overall I enjoyed my stay. 7/10 However, the communication before the stay was terrible. I did not have any response up until the day I got there. The confirmation was not clear as I booked a 2 bedroom apartment but it stated 1 room, 2 queen beds. The reception staff were lovely, polite and helpful. As for the property itself. The beds are small. More like a standard double not sure why it says Queen. The property is unmaintained. Let me clarify it was mostly clean however, damaged shower holder, cracked furniture, rusty extractor fan in shower. There was a peace of kfc chicken in the sofa, balcony glass dirty. Given the amount of money I paid I expect the property to be better maintained than this. The second bedroom has no AC and a Velcro curtain. I mean for a luxury apartment unacceptable. I encourage the owner to do maintenance and get it up to a luxury standard. The bed was comfortable and for a short stay the apartment met our needs. Lastly there were no clear pictures on the website. This is misleading as it shows several apartments. It was not clear which one we were staying in.

Average accommodation in a good area. Apartment definitely needs some TLC. Wall cabinet was hanging off the wall. Dirty walls and front door looked like it had been through some tough times. Great shower though. Room size was great too. Bedding felt like it needed replacing. Cigarette butt on the floor outside the elevator. Not the fault of the management, but not nice to see something like this. The rate was low so that’s probably why it’s not a premium accommodation. It’s a pity as the location is excellent and it’s next to the Marriott hotel. We stayed one night before going to airport. Okay for something like that.

Last LEG Holiday disappointment

We had to wait for half an hour before check in, with 2 other couples before us. The couch was absolutely dirty, resulting in us not using it. Bed and pillows very hard and uncomfortable. The guesthouse in Stellenbosch was of far superior quality than this accommodation
