Good stay
It was a good stay only problem was that the aircorn was not in working order especially in this heat. Everything else was good. Previous stays at this hotel was always excellent

Value for money...?
The hotel is clean enough, except my room had a smoke smell although it was a non-smoking room. Staff are ok, but need some prompting to be helpful. The hotel has very limited secure parking space so most nights I had to park on the street, which is not very clean with garbage all over the place. The hotel is in the center of Fordsburg town, which can be a little hectic during the day. All in all, for the cost of accommodation, I can say it is value for money..

4/10 Fair

Substandard hospitality.
Not so good; in that the room was too small and everything cramped up together. We had to walk about looking for restaurants to have our breakfast/dinner 'cause there's no guide information provided by the hotel.
