Never again. It was horrible. We were told to check in at 14:00 but at 15:00 the room was still not ready. The door lock had a problem, unlocking it was a problem. Generator was not working. At some point the stove, Tv and microwave stopped working. There was a weird smell in the room. The housekeepers were rude . ##### Fhumulani Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Iris 26 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location; Friendly staff; Comfy Rooms This hotel is located just across the street from the beach, which was great. My room was not sea facing, but I still had a bit of a sea view from the side. The street does get busy with a lot of car traffic & people so you have to be aware of your surroundings & your belongings, esp. when walking around. Because the area is busy, it does get quite a bit noisy, even at late night & early morning hours. The front desk is very helpful & accommodating. When I had an early morning tour the next day, they provided me a nice breakfast box before 5:30am since it was too early for the breakfast buffet that was included in my room rate. As for the breakfast buffet, it was excellent. There’s also an onsite restaurant & café, plus room service so that was very convenient, esp. when I came back late from my tour. My room was spacious, nice, & the bed was comfy…all that I really needed for a couple of nights in Durban. Overall, the hotel is in a good location, the room was quite comfortable, and the staff is nice & friendly. ##### Iris Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Silvia 2 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Goodersons family staycation♥️😜 The staff at the reception who welcomed myself and kids are wonderful it only took me less than 5 minutes to check in, the place is Covid complying, tehy check quests temperature on arrival and when you in and out the hotel, and sanitization, there's always security at the hotel that's visible.

The nights booked were only 2, but amount for 4 was taken off of my account. The images on the Web site are totally misleading. The location is nothing less than scary with hoovers and narcotics right outside the hotel. After hours going out of the hotel is absolutely dangerous. I left the hotel half way through the initial planned stay with no refund offered. ##### Roumina Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Flor, Argentina 4 Nov 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cerca de la playa y con muy buen restaurante.
