My room was not sea facing, but I still had a bit of a sea view from the side. The street does get busy with a lot of car traffic & people so you have to be aware of your surroundings & your belongings, esp. when walking around. Because the area is busy, it does get quite a bit noisy, even at late night & early morning hours. The front desk is very helpful & accommodating. When I had an early morning tour the next day, they provided me a nice breakfast box before 5:30am since it was too early for the breakfast buffet that was included in my room rate. As for the breakfast buffet, it was excellent. There’s also an onsite restaurant & café, plus room service so that was very convenient, esp. when I came back late from my tour. My room was spacious, nice, & the bed was comfy…all that I really needed for a couple of nights in Durban. Overall, the hotel is in a good location, the room was quite comfortable, and the staff is nice & friendly. ##### Iris Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Dennis Apr 20, 2023 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Centrally located on the beach front.

But you can hear noise from the night club at night.

Never again. It was horrible. We were told to check in at 14:00 but at 15:00 the room was still not ready. The door lock had a problem, unlocking it was a problem. Generator was not working. At some point the stove, Tv and microwave stopped working. There was a weird smell in the room.

Certainly has alot of positives going for it. Just a pity that there are so many beggars on the surrounds of the hotel and i didnt feel save even when 1 meter away from the Hotel. The area is certainly a party place but not for all only certain people will fit in. It certainly sounded nice. Wish it was save on the surrounds to enjoy the full package ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything was perfect very neat ,tidy and the stuff was friendly ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller May 8, 2019 Disliked: Amenities Pas de service de laverie le dimanche. 10 Minutes pour avoir de l’eau chaude Fête sur la plage très très bruyante le samedi soir.

The nights booked were only 2, but amount for 4 was taken off of my account. The images on the Web site are totally misleading. The location is nothing less than scary with hoovers and narcotics right outside the hotel. After hours going out of the hotel is absolutely dangerous. I left the hotel half way through the initial planned stay with no refund offered. ##### Roumina Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Flor Nov 4, 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cerca de la playa y con muy buen restaurante.
