The price is too high for such small rooms, in my room there was small toilet paper, already been used and no extra one. the aircon was not working properly. The staff were awesome though, very helpful and efficient, friendly too. I felt safe all the time.

We had a very good stay at Road Lodge Durban. The welcome by Slash and team was super, especially that we were granted the early check-in as they could see we were tired from a cruise. Thank you👏

Mr
It was good that I got a smoking room. However, there was no ashtray in the room, and I had to obtain a used Coke can as an ashtray. At the reception, there is a stench, I think, from the laundry. It is not good at all, you should see how to make that one go. The air conditioner in my room was not responding to the remote; maybe I do not know how to operate it, so an instruction manual would come in handy. Otherwise, I liked the place.
