“The rooms are clean and comfortable, and I appreciate the friendly, accommodating staff; plus, the pool is a definite draw. However, I think the breakfast needs improvement, though some find it satisfactory, and the location, near shops and beaches, is a real asset. It presents solid value, particularly if you plan to explore Durban.”
