    Good day, I need to request a refund since when I reached the establishment it was full and it was after 8 in the evening. The owner Mr Gerald Moyo tried to assist and we called Booking.com several times.

    Things that need attention are e.g. Bathroom - shower/flooe mats (to prevent slip and fall), bathroom she bins (for ladies sanitary towels), bedside tables. Parking facilities are available however, parking arrangements need to coordinated properly among clients.

    The place has a potential to grow and its generally of acceptable standard. The service was also good.

    It's the 2nd time this place has done such to me. First time when I got there I found out they were full, yet they accepted my booking and it didn't bother them at all, it was fun to tell me "you can cancel your booking on the app". Just this Saturday, again, this time around I found no receptionist just a drunk and very disrespectful security guard that couldn't help me, couldn't operate the computer to confirm my booking, and was proud about it, disrespectful. If you know what's good for you, I don't recommend that place at all, disappointed in every way🚮

    Absolutely nothing,

    Their Wifi connection is poor. I struggled with doing my work and joining meetings online. This can be improved tho, or maybe they can change the positioning of their router because the connection is weaker as you move from the gate to backyard. Another problem is the issue of the gate, for safety reasons and stuff it makes sense for the gate to be locked however if you will lock the gate guests should also have a spare key to use so that they can move in and out with ease. Having to ask for a gate to be unlocked now and then is really tiring honestly.

    Well because I wasn’t looking for luxury rather convenience, this place is near the UKZN golf road campus of which that is where I had the appointment at, however it is away from the town, I had to order in. I would recommend it for people who are visiting PMB for business, it is quiet, chilled and affordable.

    The place is not as advertised. Rooms very small and doors not properly closing. Breakfast not served as advertised. Only told in the morning that is not included to what I have paid for. Staff not friendly too. Everything was just so bad. I even asked for the manager to come and witness. There was 1 teaspoon with two cups 1 sachets of coffee with a lot of sachets of sugar.

    WiFi was the only thing I liked about the place.
