This property is impressively very clean. Their beds and bedding are soft and of good quality…my team didn’t want to get out of bed 😂The staff including security personnel are incredibly friendly and very helpful. I liked the convenience in their rooms including plugs for all my gadgets, iron, ironing board, enough cupboard storage and a very practical full bathroom. I love the intimacy of the place, it’s very homely and it has just become my “go-to” place for all my trips to Mthatha. Thank you so much ✨
