Reception was not busy, but we were made to wait and treated like an inconvenience, no eye contact, given a 2nd floor room when we had previously requested a ground floor, waited for key to room whilst receptionist chatted on phone. Fortunately room was clean and adequate. Left at 0500 in the morning no probs getting thru Lodge Gate.

The room was clean and comfortable. The lady at reception was very slow, and sometimes looked as if she did not know what was going on. That was very frustrating. I had submitted all my information online when I had made the booking, yet everything had to be re-entered, which took very long.

Mnet Channel was blank . No visual , only sound . The rest of channels was sport wich I dont watch and languages I don’t understand. Upon arrival I had to wait for my room because none were ready nor available. I have reason to believe that the hotel was not fully booked . The food was horrible. I ordered a Rodeo Burger , the beef pattie was more soya that beef . For dinner my wife had the spinach and feta pizza and I had the ribs . The spinach on the pizza tasted as if it was frozen , then defrosted and drizzled over the pizza , no taste , no salt . It was awful. My Ribs was tough . I only ate one piece at the table . The rest I took for a take away and left in room number 6 . My Wife also left het pizza in the room . At the reception there is an advertisement for pap , chakalaka & Blade steak for R145 . Inside the menu the same advertisement appeared. We wanted to order that meal and we were told it is out of stock. Why advertise something if you dont have it ? I did not receive any finger bowl for my hands to wash with my rib & chip order . You guys should consider giving the staff s course on how to run a hotel . I do hope that in the future I will never have to stay at your hotel . My overall experience: 3 / 10 Jessica Parys , Freestate

The location is great for the airport (~3 mins by taxi). Rooms are compact, but clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. There’s no lift, so you might struggle with luggage. The breakfast menu does not cater to anyone with dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten, etc)
