Non existent TV channels.

The TV selection at this Hotel is dismal...all I could get was SABC 1, SABC 2, SABC 3, and ETV. Who still watches these TV channels I am not sure? I wont be staying here again, although I really enjoy the Hotel/Lodge, still such time as they increase the selection of TV channels to watch. In addition, upon my arrival I was asked to pay, even though I had paid in advance and upon checking out, asked to pay ONCE AGAIN....this time a different amount to the one that requested when I checked in????? The fact hat I provided proof of payment upon arrival, seemed to be inconsequential.

The room and bed did not much what I reserved, staff expected unreasonable tip, so much so one housekeeper took 50 RD just for showing me my room. Sheets were not changed, room and deck were not cleaned in a regular bases. Moreover, they charged my credit card for a lunch that I already paid for in cash.
