The Lodge was up to its normal high standard in most aspects, including the ever friendly staff. The only problem experienced was the alarm that kept going off during the early hours of Sunday morning

Sauberes Hotel, nette Anlage
Zunächst wurde uns ein Stadardzimmer gegeben, da Hotels.com auch nur den günstigsten Tarif an das Hotel gezahlt hat. Nach Vorlage der Buchungsbestätigung haben wir ein Zimmer mit Gartenblick und eigenem Balkon erhalten. Das Zimmer war sauber, das Bett bequem. Im Bad hat man sich allerdings unwillkürlich am Handtuchhalter gestoßen. Die Tür hatte kein ursprüngliches Schanier mehr. Wir waren fast alleine im Hotel. Das Hotel ist von einem Zaun umgeben, was für ein gewisses Sicherheitsgefühl sorgt (Zaun/Mauer ist aber Standard in SA). Das Hotel selber liegt nicht gerade zentral, hat aber ein Restaurant. Hier wurde uns ein sehr leckeres und auch günstiges vegatarisches Essen zubereitet. Alle Bedienstesten waren sehr nett. Das inbegriffene Frühstück war etwas spartanisch.
