Otimo atendimento e instalação a desejar

Funcionarios extremamente atenciosos e gentis. No entanto, foi um pouco frustrante porque as fotos não condiziam muito com a realidade. Relaçao custo beneficio não satisfatótia. Acomodaçao antiga e além disso o wifi nao funcionou.

Mthunzi Lodge Hazyview

Hotel waa in a great location to Kruger Park and in a nice quiet area of town. Staff went far and beyond to help and assist in whatever I needed. The owners of the hotel were amazing and very personable and welcoming throughout my stay at Mthunzi. Thank you for your warm hospitality and frienship. 😀

Worst accomodations ever

The establishment looks nothing like the pictures on their website. There were cockroaches in our room. The bath tub was dirty, the shower cap was leaking, had to wrap a plastic around the leak just so that we could take a shower. The staff was not friendly at all, when we left in the morning there was a dirty plate lying around. The rooms are so close to each other I had to ask the other lodgers to please lower their noise volume. There no security the guest opposite our room brought some dodgy characters to their room, they were making so much noise. We checked out first thing in the morning. For the rate they are charging it's day light robbery.
