Close to the site we were working night shift
You have a games room in between the bedrooms and the guests were making loads of noise when sleeping. And when complaining to the manager he just had no salutation to make…

ElitaSouth AfricaPlace was not clean at all and they did not make provision for 5 people like we have booked. The place was definitely not cleaned properly. It is a great location but I would not recommend it to friends.
