"Great place. As an international tourist I do not like being charged 2000zar and asked for banking details for a property damage deposit. Especially with a 7 day turn around. In other words 6 other nights of guests stay in the room and what prevents me from being charged for something they did?? And it is just too risky for me to give banking details as a tourist. Other wise stay was nice."

"It is a small hotel that is an extension of a casino. Do all the rooms are, probably, just like ours and smelled of smoke. Walking down the hall, you could smell smoke from several rooms. And it seems the management does not care. Other parts of the hotel smell like a men's restroom. But on the "plus" side, the rooms are intimate (tiny) and surrounded by nature (a rooster wakes you up at the crack of dawn)."
