Excellent experience at Illovo Hotel

To stay on campus was really great and to have then have all the necessity's and more made it an even greater experience. It was like being at home but cutting out all the travel. The rooms was comfortable, I had all I needed and the staff were very friendly. They even assisting when I fell ill and meds were delivered by a local pharmacy and I was brought water as well. Definitely an excellent experience.
