The staff was very accommodating to my need. Since I'm a procard member, I wanted to stay a night longer and there was no problem extending my stay on a pay one get one night free voucher.

The hotel and rondavels need a facelift, however, the staff at reception and in the dining room are real assets to the hotel. Also would have more guests if B&B is offered as a rate and not the ridiculous charge for breakfast alone. We had breakfast at the Lemon & Lime for much cheaper.

For a 3 star hotel - adequate. Bathrooms need modernising.
