This was a very comfortable, clean hotel. The breakfast was not included with our room, but was very good with lots of hot food options. The dining room was attractive and food was terrific. A shuttle bus to the airport runs regularly. The only difficulty we had was finding the right place to get the shuttle bus from the airport, but that's an airport signage issue. Hightly recommend this hotel.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was tiny for 2 people, 2 single beds squeezed in with a curtain separating the shower and one of the beds also ran out of hot water in the morning. You could hear everything that was going on in the next door rooms…..sound proofing not the best. Reception staff not at all helpful - booked with breakfast included but suddenly on arrival it wasn’t and there was no allowance made by them. The dining room staff at night however were amazing and the food wasn’t too bad. We stayed at the southern Sun on our arrival which was closer to the airport and was markedly better than the protea.
