Stay was not the best.
Was clean, but the drain smell was revolting and it was from the showers in both rooms I booked. Great location only if you are going to club till 2 am otherwise you will not get any sleep.

Will never go back
We had to book out at 11:30 as we where unable to sleep because of the noise. It was unbearable even our bed headboard was rattling because of the music going on downstairs.

Location is bad (surrounded by night clubs )very noisy , smell Fried fish inside rooms . if you book online you will not get customer service.they will tell you they can’t do anything. Bed is clean. I will not recommend. . I will never stay again. Make sure you exchange the money they will give you 1us -12 R . Nice restaurants around it.

We have read your feedback and are disappointed that you did not enjoy your stay. Florida road is a night time hot spot. Many people do stay with us for this very reason. Of course that is not suited to everyone, perhaps like your self. We will look into the fried fish smell, it seems that may be form the restaurant downstairs which we are adressing. Again thank you for taking the time to give us feedback.

A NIGHT WIHT COCKOACHES IN BED AND JACKETS
I was welcomed by a VERY unprofessional lady at reception. She was chewing chappies and watching video on her phone while "checking" me in. When I queried the details of my booking she showed me her computer screen and told me to read the mail that expedia sent to the lodge. In the room, it took more than fifteen minutes of wasting water before I got hot water. I phoned reception and they sent housekeeping to my room who simply said "wait, hot water is coming". It did come. The water pressure is the worst I have ever experienced in my life. It felt like niddle drops of water when you open the tap. The climax was sleeping with cockroaches and finding one in my jacket. When I showed the same lady at reception the video I had taken on my experience with cockroaches in the room, she grabbed the phone and started yelling for housekeeping. She could not offer a simple apology on the experience. She requested that I wait and speak to housekeeping. Very very distasteful and outrageous experience.

Greetings, I realise you posted sometime ago but wished to make contact with you none the less. We have had a change of ownership as well as a new management team. Perhaps you would be kind enough to contact me on anthony@nextgentech.co.za as I would like to correspond with a view to you coming back and see how we are doing now.

Nice hotel but if you based at the back of the hotel your night is disturbed by the continuous discarding of glass bottles in the early hours of the morning

Florida Road, a step away from all the action..
If you know the Area and understand what you are getting then you won’t have too many expectations. The room has all the basics, beds and bedding very comfortable. Easy check in and parking in the back of hotel. Hotel entrance is on Florida road between Butcher boys and the Fish restaurant. Understand that if you are going be out on the town for the night this is the perfect spot. Nightlife is on your doorstep. Beware of anyone asking for a lighter for smoke or asking the time or anything like that.. I leave that up to your discretion as in any City You should be street smart. breakfast across the road paid for by hotel was great!

Get a taste of Durban's chilled vibes & night life
I enjoyed my 5-night stay at this hotel. The front desk staff were friendly enough, our room was cleaned everyday, and the service staff were very cheerful and respectful. I feared a lot of noise due to it's close proximity to bars and clubs, but that wasn't the case at all. Relatively peaceful nights and quiet mornings.

Family Affordable Hotel
The hotel is family friendly, room was big enough for two adults and 2 kids sharing a double sofa bed, the breakfsst though needs to cater for halaal, Muslim clients as well, but furthermore our stay was very pleasant

Great Location and Spacious!
The stay was wonderful with a spacious room that was neat and clean with all necessary amenities. The partnership with Europa for breakfast is really great as there is plenty of variety and good food and beverages. The location could not be beaten (if you're not after a sea view) as it was centrally located and in the hub of restaurants and nightlife.

It's already been said....
Everyone has already mentioned the noise from the nearby club. I killed roaches; worn towels that need replacing, and the shower had hair from a previous guests and needed a good scrubbing. This establishment could really be a great stay if not for the aforementioned.

Assist with the misunderstanding
We had a huge fight with the hotel manager by the name of John, apparently the agency paid for two people instead of three and we were told to pay R3100 for the third person he is still calling me to say he is sending me an invoice and he wants me to pay. Can someone fix this mess cause he says he is going blacklist my name. I booked for three people not two.
