    The basin in the bathroom wasn't draining properly. The one room didn't have bedside tables. Not all plug points worked (check kitchen) Please put 2 prong plugs in the plug fittings against the wall for if guests forget to bring adapters. Wifi code should be visible somewhere. We had to phone reception for it. The one key card didn't work when we got back that evening. Kitchen needs scissors.

    Nice bedding and shared space.

    Standard rooms windows opens up to a view of pipes. No sunlight. Very disappointing. Bathrooms need attention. Water pressure was a problem. No hair dryer in room.

    There was a stench in the kitchen and 1 of the rooms were leaking so we had one room short. However, we were offered free dinner and breakfast to compensate for it.

    The staff were very friendly and helpful. Place was beautiful.

    The staff was friendly and accommodating. Just amour bathroom tap could not closed but that was all sorted.

    My booking was not breakfast included and I had to pay but that was ok. The breakfast was good just not a huge variety of food.

    Good and convenient accommodation. Was asked to pay for breakfast which did not meet my expectation. I thought this was part of my payment for bed.

    Good value in the city centre.

    Had dinner one night in the restaurant, the food was delicious but the service was not good, the waiter took 20 minutes to approach us with a menu, we were clearly looking around waiting, it was dinner time. I actually had to go to him and ask him for the menus. Once the order went onto the kitchen the food was delivered quickly. Our waiter never came back to us for desert order. He was standing behind the bar leaning against the wall, on his phone. We asked a waitress for assistance. I had to again go to the waiter and ask him for the bill. We didnt leave a tip. On another day we had lunch there and the waitress who served us was good at her job, we left a tip that day. The area outside the hotel has a lot of homeless drug addicts, we saw drugs being openly taken. The hotel should speak to the SAP to address this issue.

    My room was clean and quiet. The air conditioning worked perfectly. The bed was very comfortable, the pillows were really good. The WiFi in the room was good, no complaints. I stayed 2 nights/3days here and during that time there was no load-shedding, perhaps because it is in the CBD? The room was quiet despite facing the street, I didn't notice any noise. The TV worked fine. The bathroom was good, water pressure and heat good.

    Could Improve - Reception side - Soemtimes there is only 1 person and some guests wait and queuing to be assisted. This also lead to the reception phone kept ringing as no one was answering as they were attending the other guest.

    - Nice breakfast - Friendly staffs - Loction in CBD and close walking distance to office, shops etc
