Drunk guests ruin stay

It wasn't the greatest evening. We were woken at 3am by drunk guests fighting in the room next door to us. Not sure why the security guard on site didn't call security sooner because the ruckus continued for almost 90 minutes but he seemed powerless to intervene. I left numerous messages with the owner of the establishment who eventually called me at around 7am by which time I had already decided to leave the accommodation because we had been intimated by these drunk guests. We were supposed to stay another night but didn't want to chance it. I was traveling with women who didn't feel safe staying there longer after being verbally abused by the drunk guests who came in the early hours of the morning. The owner promised us a refund we will see what happens. Very very disappointed.

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort

Absolut dårligste service i byen.

Vi har rejst rundt i Afrika i noget tid og har boet mange steder både gode og dårlige, men det her var uden tvivl det dårligste når det kommer til service. Ved ankomst havde de ikke styr på reservationen og først efter noget tid "stoler" receptionisten på at vi havde booket og betalt. På værelset virkede tv'et ikke og køleskabet kunne ikke køle. ved morgenmaden havde vi hver dag diskussion med personalet om hvorvidt vi havde morgenmad inkluderet og endte med ikke at få morgenmad den sidste dag i vores ophold tiltrods for vi havde betalt for det.. Absolut ikke anbefalelsesværdigt, selvom stedet her en central placering..

Very friendly staff and great rooms

I loved my time at The Concierge. The room was very comfortable, clean and safe. Had an issue with the key a couple nights that was very promptly resolved by the staff. Everyone is very friendly and gave us advice for exploring the city. The location is a bit hidden away but close to Florida St.

Beautiful rooms!

We had a great time here, the rooms are really beautiful and comfortable. The big bathtub and overheard shower were our personal favourites. The establishment could improve by adding more towels and bath/shower gel in the bathroom. The TV was also a bit old in our room and unclear. Other than that, it was great and will definitely be going back.

Das Boutique Hotel ist wirklich schön, leider ist es sehr laut die ganze Nacht, da eine Busstation nebenan ist wo herumgeschrien wird. Leckeres Frühstück und sehr freundliches Personal
