I loved everything because at the end of the day if there was something I did not like I wouldn't as the place is affordable and during this peak time getting a place at such an incredible price affordable and comfortable to stay in never gave me a reason to complain as every stuff member human we all need jobs and we all have families to feed so before I complain il take that into consideration first

Cleanliness of the bedroom and the bathroom, no odors, clean towels daily, no cockroaches, the rooms are satiesfying. As a business traveller I only needed a clean room, not breakfast or anything else. For the money I paid for 3 days it was worth my stay. SAFE & CLEAN. 🥰 Staff is amazing the gentlemen that checked me is forever smiling and friendly. His smile assured me i am in a safe and clean place. He requested R50 deposit for key per procedure and explained it will be returned. Check out was a hustle free, he ran quickly to check the room and returned to give me my deposit back. I did not get the gentleman's name but he is outstanding. Thank u for the comfort and to all your friendly staff i saw during the day - Keep up the good job. They make that front dest the real friendly Reviera Hotel. The Housekeeping Team - Super friendly mamas. Thank u for keeping those comfortable beds clean, toilets and showers spotless no odor at all, our towels and linens freshened. I looked forward to received your clean and warm towels daily. Great value for money. ❤️

I loved the room hey. Just false advertising about picture with a kettle in the room. Well there is no kettle in the room but that was not a train smash. I would book here again if I need something affordable.

Very pleasant check-in front desk was very helpful. The room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The view from the room was absolutely amazing, and the hotel is situated close to the beach front. Large array of Mr delivery options available which is needed for the self catering aspect of it all. Great room just for a nice getaway.

I have no complaints. The place was good value, especially for the amount of money charged.

The room size was prefect, but the TV was not clear at all. I am complaining about the channels but the Tv must be clear and clear pictures. The breakfast was excellent, you get what you have ordered The rooms were cleaned everyday which is acceptable

First, when l checked inn l was issued with the parking card. Then the security asked if I was given anything in the reception and when I said I was not given he gave me ticket, upon coming out I was told that I should R5.00 for collecting the ticket and of which as much as it was small amount I refused until the security paid that from his own pocket Secondly, I was nearly scammed in the atm at the shop in the garage. The lady who works there knows theses scammers but they are allowed to walk in and out of the shop and that atm on many occasions Fortunately, I stopped my card when it was swallowed by the machine

I didn't get the time for breakfast otherwise I'd like it they opened at seven off which I wanted to be out at that time.i was going to be late if I have waited for it

There was no tea/coffee that I can make for ourselves at rooms, off which in the photo of the rooms it's available, not even an electric jug or teapot in our rooms.that was the sad part as I say we didn't get the time for breakfast because they open late in the canteen. The television was playing one channel (e)

The staff at the reception was very friendly. I did like the view. The room was clean and my bedding was clean. The bathroom was clean and towels were clean

Well I was not too impress with the fact TV channels are limited as I'm more of a soccer fan. I know there's a Cafe but having my own set of coffee/tea I mean a kettle and cups would've helped. But overall my stay was great.
