Cleanliness is OK. However the hotel is being refurbished in spite of the need for a full renovation. Doesn't comply with a 4 star hotel by Southern Sun. Serious issue with ventilation as the main lobby and restaurant area smell like fish. Corridors and rooms smell fungus, and I had to keep the room window open all the time. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan Grønnegaard Jul 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Dan Grønnegaard Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Jul 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### James Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Guy Jun 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Holiday in Tanzania Great hotel to stay when organizing for a safari in our of the bush or heading to Pemba or Zanzibar. ##### Guy Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels.d4127.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Zoetry Agua Punta Cana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Zoetry-Agua-Punta-Cana.h1619286.Hotel-Information) > > [Golf Hotels in Varadero](https://www.expedia.ca/Varadero-Hotels-Golf-Hotel.0-0-d3735-tGolfHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Frontenac Club Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels-Frontenac-Club-Inn.h13387886.Hotel-Information) > > [Redford Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nanaimo-Hotels-Redford-Motel.h6297033.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Barcelona Glories 22](https://www.expedia.ca/Barcelona-Hotels-Ibis-Barcelona-Glories-22.h2759156.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Old Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Old-Montreal-Montreal-Hotels.0-n6058206-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sandos Playacar All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Sandos-Playacar-All-Inclusive.h892167.Hotel-Information) > > [Seven Stars Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Providenciales-Hotels-Seven-Stars-Resort-Spa.h1927524.Hotel-Information) > > [Yelo Jean Médecin Hotel, Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy](https://www.expedia.ca/Nice-Hotels-Yelo-Hotel.h68060873.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in New Smyrna Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Smyrna-Beach-Hotels.d8943.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [B&B Niagara-on-the-Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-On-The-Lake-Bed-And-Breakfast.d8957-aaBedAndBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in St. Pierre and Miquelon](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-St-Pierre-And-Miquelon.d11719.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Club Regina Puerto Vallarta](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Club-Regina-Puerto-Vallarta.h1353919.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Bali](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Bali-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d602651-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Cancun Hotel Zone](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Cancun-Hotel-Zone.h61419732.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Thunder Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Thunder-Bay-Hotels.d4054.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Vancouver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Vancouver-Downtown.h22179.Hotel-Information) > > [Houseboats Florida Keys](https://www.expedia.ca/Florida-Keys-Houseboats.d6023765-aaHouseboats.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Condo Rentals Hawaii](https://www.expedia.ca/Hawaii-Condos.d213-aaCondos.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Val David](https://www.expedia.ca/Val-David-Hotels.d6982.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hampton Inn & Suites Nashville Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Nashville-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-Nashville-Downtown.h1677531.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to George Town (GCM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/gcm/ottawa-to-george-town) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Oakland (OAK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/oak/calgary-to-oakland) > > [flights from port alberni airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ypb/flights-from-port-alberni-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yeg/toronto-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Guangzhou (CAN) to Shanghai (PVG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/can/pvg/guangzhou-to-shanghai) ### Packages > [Capri Island Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Capri-Island.d180062.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Porto-Vecchio](https://www.expedia.ca/Porto-Vecchio.dx55393)
