The Ashford is an amazing place to stay for either business or pleasure. The owner Megan is wonderful and so is Zanele her Manager. The breakfast was delicious, the room spotlessly clean and tidy. Great value. Would stay there over and over again.

O hotel é incrível, você se sentirá em casa. Tudo lindo desde da decoração bem pensada ao paisagismo. Quero agradecer as proprietárias Megan e Kelly que foram super atenciosas a um solicitação do meu checkin. Agora a parte que mais me encantou foram as duas funcionárias Leena e Zanele, que foram impecáveis no atendimento, fora a energia gostosa que eles transmitem. ❤️
