Reviewed 29 December 2011

I spent two weeks at the hotel with two other colleagues in the 3 bedroom apartment. This was a large apartment with lots of common spaces which was important when you are staying somewhere for a long period. However, the building while looking great from the outside is really old and all the furniture was equally old (we named the place after "Casper" the ghost). Previous reviews warned of this matter so I was not too suprised but there was a lack of important thinds such as no room fridges for out food or even a microwave to reheat/cook stuff. Considering the size of the place there was lots of space to place it. The rooms were OK but the electrics in mine were all bad and the air conditioner did not work in the second week (lucky it was cool in Durban). There were no plugs to recharge my computer and equipment so I had to use a common space. The hotel treated us well, we had clean sheets in the rooms but never enought towels. The security was a basic as the life stopped in our common area and we only had a latch to lock it.

The area around the hotel was not safe to walk around after dark and we only ever got back after dark to the hotel. Not convenient with few real shops nearby and lots of homeless in the surrounding streets. The area is mainly used for people when they are passing through using a car etc. You could walk to the surrounding shopping places but again you would be better getting a taxi back.

The food was OK, we had a consistent breakfast each day that was filling and healthy. However, dinner was not well prepared and the food was at times poor quality. Despite all the problems the staff tried hard to ensure we had a good stay. While I would not stay there by choice it was far better than many other nearby places. It was close to the ICC and this was really important for me and my colleagues.

Room tip: Rooms are all old and need of updating - just accept that it is going to be a bit strange!
