I would have liked to give a full rating, but there were some points that I didn't like so much. Firstly, the location is okay, but I was told that I was being watched by a homeless person while I was trying to surreptitiously tip my guide. I wouldn't say I felt unsafe, but it does make me think twice about returning to this hotel on my own. I felt also like it wasn't really that near to anything, other than the square right beside the hotel (which was nice) and there's a halal BK right beside the hotel's restaurant, but we're not eating American fast food so....I wish I had the chance to try the hotel's restaurant besides breakfast, but I did not. I say this because my bus often had to drive in and out of this kind of long driveway every time we went somewhere. Secondly, it troubled me somewhat that the lifts didn't require card access, meaning anyone from the streets could theoretically follow me up to my room. Given that my group had been followed in Cape Town, this made me a bit nervous. I once asked to borrow an adapter because I was silly enough to not realise that my international adapter didn't have the 3 round pin plug. I was told that housekeeping will try to find one and that I would be updated, but I wasn't updated. I also discovered (from my travel buddy) that my room actually did have a 3-pin and a USB charging port behind the bedside table. It would have been nice if the front desk had just told me that, but I suppose he didn't know. For the laundry, my white dress came back with tiny brown spots/crusts - though this is really the fault of the external laundry service they use, and not really their fault per se. Thankfully it's not my favourite dress or anything. Also, I would pick up my laundry around 7 or 8 each day but would usually have to wait for the housekeeper to "bring it down", despite being told that my laundry would be ready around 6ish. They'd tell me to return to my room first, but that made me feel like I'd never see my laundry, so I annoyingly stuck around until my laundry appeared. Laundry was a lot more expensive here than Johannesburg, but at least it was transparent. On my last day, they also sort of forgot to retrieve about half of my laundry and that made me panic a bit, but they found it eventually and all was fine. I did have to check the items against the receipt though and luckily it was all captured. I'd suggest you keep the carbon copy or take a picture. The entryway had very little space to put our shoes, but the room is gigantic. I think it would be a good idea to actually have the wardrobe more inside the room rather than have all that empty space, unless it's for a rollaway bed (which was not given to me as an option but then again my tour agent was kind of dim). Then we could actually put our shoes somewhere. And because I wasn't given interconnecting rooms (I'm not sure if there are any, or if it was because of said dim agent) I would use my family's key card to access their room and sometim
