I think people should be advised not to try and check in during loadshedding. Mobile networks fail and communication is impossible. The property needs to have a facelift in some of the rooms. It is however clean and welcoming. The staff especially Dineo are brilliant. Helpfull and friendly. I enjoyed my stay.

This building was once the home of well to do people and, consequently, had the comforts that one would expect in that situation.
