Ventilation of the room I got was good and also reception team was amazing, they were so helpful. Bathroom hot water was on point, really enjoyed taking a warm shower. How ever the WiFi was super slow and later on it just stopped working till we checked out. The network wasn’t strong enough that we couldnt even use it for WhatsApp. During the night there was a lot of noise in the corridor, it was like a brothel through out the night and also cigarette smoke was coming in strong from the room next to us I think it was room number 4. These people are very noisy we didn’t even manage to sleep because they were making a lot of noise. We didn’t find the remote for the TV and also the speakers were not working so there was literally no volume on the Tv. When it comes to entertainment there is really nothing to offer

Thank you for your feedback. Which room were you in the Wifi is mainly dependent on what you are using and it's not for streaming. We will look into it.

Basic, affordable
Affordable but basic accommodation. Friendly staff. Some maintenance and renovation would make the rooms more pleasant. Limited television channels but we had good Wi-Fi reception. Overall it was OK for a 2 night stay

Decent Affordable Stay
This is a pretty decent place. Wi-Fi stronger in certain rooms so ask them for a room where signal is stronger. Food especially dinner is overpriced rather go to Avondale and get Chinese or Nando’s for half the price they charge. But no complain.

The lodge is clean and affordable. The rooms are a bit too small. Too much traffic in the neighbourhood, but that's out of their control.

Honestly this place was terrible for me, I booked online and arrived late in the evening, I got to the room the bedding was dirty and not ironed, floor had ants and cockroaches. Not to mention the staff , they were not friendly at all , I stayed for 2 days and no one came to check if I need any tissues or bathing gel or anything for that matter. There was only a small bathing gel to use one and the next year I used my own soap… poor service . I don’t recommend
