An excellent location! Walking distance easily to the casino, safe and secured with a security gate that will even stop Uber drivers if they don’t have a proper reservation number to pick up someone from the hotel and just across the freeway from the mall. I will absolutely stay here again! I loved it.

Hotels.com messed up my booking!
My stay was good, but I booked through Hotels.com and it seems they didn't send my booking confirmation through to the hotel so it took longer than hour just to check-in. How frustrating.

The place was clean but found the bathroom very small. No lift or bag carrier to help with bags up the 2 flights of stairs and no phone in the room to call reception. Breakfast is also over priced. Liked the vending machine at the entrance but it wouldnt take new money notes.

Nothing was bad but the room was too small and in my bookings there were no specifics about the size and all..we did even have drinking water in the room
LM
Our stay was very comfortable, Check in was excellent thanks to Nosipho's warm welcome and friendly gesture she demonstrates while performing her duty... The room was neat and clean..
It would not be too bad to add sugar, making coffee for 2 people becomes challenging as there's only 2 sachets of sugar and 2 candarel.

Short but staff was great. The service was good and the room was on point. The price was great value for money and the location was 7 Km to my destination. I also had a special request which was acceded to. The was a microwave which came very handy to my needs. There was an ice maker as well. The shower had hot water and there was a plan for loadshedding. Disappointing was the vending machine which refused to take money.

Stay at road lodge
Aircon/fan wasn't working. Guy was drunk screaming and fighting at like 1am until the ambulance came. Toilet was not cleaned properly. Floors don't look so clean. Very noisy. Bed was comfortable

From the receptionist to the cleaner, i never experienced this type of treatment plus it was peacefully sleeping there. I'll always recommend it next time to other people who coming from far for any leisure at Carnival city. Excellent service

Disappointed that no provision made for cellphone charging, insufficient room refreshments, sugar, tea for two persons.
Overall comfortable but a bit overpriced, taking into account that the interest is more about the entertainment offered.

Our stay at Road Lodge
The stay at road lodge was very interesting, the furniture was okay and we hardly struggled to get by. However, the tea and sugars that were provided left much to be desired as the tea bags were not strong enough and the sugar was not sweet enough. Apart from this, the stay was okay.
Rebecca
Lack of housekeeping as far as health & hygiene
After a 4hr journey, I went to the room. Very small but ok to just sleep. Them I went to the toilet and closed the sliding door just to find old dried up vomit all along the rail and floor. Hygiene is avery huge factor when it comes to travelling and using facilities numerous people use. I was so disgusted and appalled by the lack of housekeeping as far as hygiene is concerned. Then to after that, have no welcome pack of basic body wash or shampoo to take a shower after ones journey. Re eption said the 1 crumble bar of soap is enough for 2 guests. I asked for a women to use? Not considerate at all! We arent men. All genders should be taking into consideration.

No Air conditioner?
Room was clean and tidy.
Unfortunately the temperatures in SA in summer require a working air conditioner. Third year in a row with faulty air conditioner.
Could not open the window as there was an extremely noisy central conditioning unit outside, presumably for the reception area.

Not what i expected
The carpets is a no no no. My sinus was troubling me the whole night because of a carpet. There is no fridge, no toiet brush no air freshener in the toilet. There was one glass to be shared by 2 people. The tiles in the toilet were sticky. The room was stuffy, air conditioner was not working. I am not a fussy person but i was disappointed by the state of the rooms.

The stay was great, only two things bothered me;
1) the toilet made a noise as if the water running all night. 2) could not switch on the AC until the next day only to find out it needs a bit of a tap on the control panel for it to work.

I booked my 74 year old dad and 71 year old mom into this hotel to spend my dad's birthday there. They were unable to stay on the premises due to extreme noise.There was a bus full of school children booked in there who made such terrible noise that they were unable to sleep. SO they just left. The guy at the front desk apologised and informed them to get a refund for the room, as they were unable to sleep there. How do I go about this process?
Marleze
We were attending a local festival and last minute booked a room. Parking did not allow for double Parking that could fit the food trailrr aswell. During morning hours our gas bottle was stolen from our food truck. Were are security? Also had to ask for towels, since none was in room.

Major Security Issue for guests
I suggest that the wooden door leading to the stairs be fitted with a lock and only card holders to open the door after 22H00.
We were woken up by lost visitors, first at 03H45 and then again at 04H15, after phoning the front desk, the security was send up.
This is leaving guests open to any person just entering at free will to the rooms, and people can get killed, robbed and the Roadlodge would not know about it.
