“Don't Stay here unless price is the only factor”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 June 2007

people found this review helpful

We used the Don for one night on June 9th, 2007 after being in the bush on Safari for two weeks. We had better service in the bush than at the hotel. The person at the front desk at night for check-in didn't know anything beyond our room rate, couldn't answer simple questions and was not willing to make any effort to find out anything. The person in the morning also couldn't answer any questions about our reservation descrepancies and her attitude was basically "It's not my job". The hotel advertises a restaurant for breakfast and dinner but when we asked about dinner at 7 PM they gave me a Take-Out-taxi menu and told me to call them. The menu was so old the number was out of order. The only two good things about the place was the low price and the size of the suite. We got 2 bedrooms and a small kitchen and small living room for $120 but the carpet as dirty, the tiles in the bathroom were moldy, the trim was peeling off and we all got lots of flea bites from sleeping in the beds. Only stay here if you are desparate.

  • Liked — cheap & close to the airport
  • Disliked — lack of service, cleanliness problems

Service incredibly poor, no one at front desk could print a receipt after I paid cash, were also not able to supply change after we paid in full. Rooms were neat and clean. We did not sleep much though as it was like the high way ran over our room. Our window faced towards the high way but I did notice other rooms that didn't. Perhaps one needs to request one of those. Surcharge for trip from airport R70 one way.
