Not too bad
We only stayed one night, and the beds were comfortable. But the balcony was not clean - there were sigarette ashes and chicken bones on the table outside. And the only chair in the room: there was no cover for the pillows on it.

Cool place by the ocean.
This place is a 3 minute walk to the Humewood Beach, right on the Indian Ocean. For a warm summer day, it's perfect. It's affordable too. I recommend it

Halte sympathique et utile.
Nous étions sur le retour et donc la proximité de l'aéroport était positive pour notre choix. De plus, l'hôtel est situé non loin du Beach Front où se trouvent les activités et donne sur l'océan. Le quartier n'est pas sûr, de même que PE, mais en étant vigilant, pas de danger. Bonne literie mais salle de douche un peu vétuste (pression d'eau forte et agréable). Facile d'accès. Bonne étape utile avant de reprendre l'avion ou poursuivre sur Durban.
