Overall experience
We had an amazing time with my family. The rooms were clean. The staff members were amazing and very welcoming. I am humbled with the kind of service I received, my grandparents were happy and relaxed. The breakfast was nice and well prepared. Thank you to the ladies at the reception, the restaurant staff as well as the cleaning staff ❤️❤️❤️❤️

We come to visit family in The Midlands twice a year from Australia. We needed a place close to Durban Airport close to the N2 to make it easy to find at night. This hotel is tidy friendly and clean and very well placed. The position next to the mall is ideal for air conditioned walking after an early rise due to jet lag. The rooms are small but for the money it great value for our purposes. We wil use this hotel again.

We had a good stay & experience, the location is great. Check in could have been more convenient than what we experienced, sometimes the old fashioned way is best but overall we had a good stay.
