Very Disappointing Stay – Not as Advertised
Nothing
The advert specifically listed parking, which was the main reason I chose and booked this accommodation. However, upon arrival, I discovered that you are expected to pay extra for secure indoor parking; otherwise, you have to park outside. This was extremely misleading and not what I expected when making my booking.
The accommodation itself was old, dirty, and uncomfortable. It felt more like someone’s home being rented out without proper preparation or maintenance for guests. There were cockroaches, the bathroom was damp, and working tools were stored in the bathroom cupboard. The towels were old, rough, and unpleasant to use. There was also an unpleasant smell throughout the unit, which was so bad that I had to buy an air freshener myself.
The windows were dirty, and guests are expected to pay extra to use the air conditioners, which was another disappointment.
I also did not feel safe or comfortable in the building. There was considerable noise throughout the night, and the overall environment was not suitable for someone looking for a peaceful, comfortable stay.
I booked this accommodation for work and expected a clean, quiet, safe, and functional space where I could rest and prepare for my work commitments. Unfortunately, it fell far short of those expectations. The Wi-Fi did not work, there was no iron provided, and when I contacted the host for assistance, my messages were ignored.
Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. Based on my stay, I would not recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and professional place to stay, particularly for business travel. The listing should accurately disclose additional charges and reflect the actual condition and facilities of the property.

Hotel Stay Experience – Review and Recommendations
My recent stay at the hotel was unfortunately unsatisfactory, and I would like to share my concerns regarding the experience, as well as recommendations that I believe could improve the quality and safety of future guests’ stays.
Concerns and Risks
1. Cleanliness and Bedding
The room was not properly cleaned, including the bedding. We even found blood stains on the bedding, which is extremely concerning from a hygiene and health perspective. Fortunately, we had brought our own bedding with us.
2. Cockroach Infestation
There were many cockroaches in the room. This is unacceptable, especially in accommodation where cleanliness and hygiene should be a priority. There are numerous effective pest-control products and professional pest-control services available, so I believe a proper solution needs to be implemented.
3. Electricity for the Air Conditioner
It was very disturbing to be informed that we had to purchase electricity separately in order to use the air conditioner. This was unexpected, and I believe such an important facility should either be included in the accommodation cost or clearly communicated to guests before booking.
4. Toilets Not Working Properly
The toilet was not functioning properly, which made the stay uncomfortable and raised concerns about hygiene and basic guest facilities.
5. Security and Parking
We were informed that there was 24-hour security to safeguard guests’ vehicles outside. However, the security personnel asked us for R50 to watch over our cars. This was concerning because guests should not be placed in a position where they feel they need to pay additional money for a security service that was presented as part of the hotel’s security arrangements.
Recommendations
I respectfully recommend that management consider the following:
1. Cleanliness must be non-negotiable. Rooms, bedding, bathrooms and all guest facilities should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected before guests

Amazing stay, amazing price
The location and stay was great especially at the rate we were given. The reception and communication was excellent and it felt very homely. Also the security of the place is great.
The wall between the rooms can afford to be closed as there is no privacy between rooms. Otherwise we were handle professionally at such a great location.

The flat was clean,the water was always hot, the WiFi was always on point and even much better the host was very responsive and available for assistance. The place is close to everything and right at North beach with restaurants and a club across the street next to the beach. What you see as advertised is what you get
The 2 bedrooms are separated by a glass partition that goes only half way, this means there is no sound barrier between the 2 bedrooms. The towels were available but not properly placed and didn't look clean enough. The curtains were very bad for both bedrooms now coupled with not a fully extracted partitioning it was worse.
Please fix the glass wall to go all the way up there is no privacy.. we couldn't even breath loudly
Parking is not specified as an available amenity at 27 on North Beach. For more information, we encourage you to contact the property about where to park.
