The room was big, clean and comfortable. The bed was comfortable.

The deck overlooking the river provided lovely views.

The aircon was noisy.

The lead on the coffee kettle could not reach the plug. I had to crawl under the desk and boil the water on the floor.

It took about 5 minutes for hot water to reach the shower (which requires a degree in rocket science to figure out). The soap dispenser in the shower MIGHT be at a comfortable height for a person at least 2m tall, but for us normal people it was too high to use, so we had to place the soap dispenser on the shower floor, which is just as uncomfortable.

The kitchen cannot follow simple instructions. I had to take the egg of my over priced breakfast back to the kitchen (the serving staff disappeared) and then they STILL did not cook it to my requirement.

I won't be staying here the next time I am in Upington.
