The theme is attractive and well developed. Management needs to remember that customers are paying to stay at the hotel. A less strict approach will serve them well. ##### Arthur Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wayne 23 Nov 2018 This was the best South Africa guest house we have stayed in.
