Staff are friendly and the property in generally clean and safe. We didn't like the bathroom. The water leaks through the shower to around the room. We raised this issue, but nobody attended to it. The first day, we found the bathroom bin was full.

Hotel is filthy, old and there is no privacy! I checked-in and checked-out within hours and booked a room at Protea Marroitt Skyz. The room was too filthy for me spend a night - sofa was disgusting! My request for a refund was denied.

Good for the price I paid. Management is nice.
Management is nice and willing to be flexible on check-in and check-out. For the price it's a good deal. Spacious, I rented the one bedroom apartment. There are 3 elevators. Apartments are on the 7th-12th floors. They need more utensils, there was a microwave, fridge, large shower, King bed, AC is great. No mosquitos, I stayed for 3 days. It's part of the Africans Hotel, so reach time you leave you get your car screened when you return, which got annoying. They only clean the room 2-3 times a week. Overall, I would be willing to stay here again

Bad experience from start to finish. Where should I begin? Maybe I should start with the fact that there was no key for the room I was placed in. Additionally, the room I was checked into had no working A/C, and then had to wait for a room to be cleaned which did have A/C and a key. Why on earth would the room with no A/C be cleaned first? This was very late in the afternoon too. I arrived at around 3 pm and my reserved room wasn't ready until after 4:00 which is long after "check in time". Then, the next morning, I was asleep at around 9 am and there is a knock at the door. I don't answer because,,,I WAS ASLEEP! Then, the maid proceeds to just open the door and enter. I have to shout at this imbecile several times to tell her to close the door, because I WAS SLEEPING! This hotel has no priorities placed on guest service and comfort, but only what is convenient for the personal schedule of someone whose highest aspiration in life was to focus all of her talents on being a hotel maid. There is no restaurant nearby, and every time you exit the hotel, you must be searched upon re-entry. There is no bar or lounge, and the food in the paltry restaurant they have is simply a buffet with food that has been sitting there since the beginning of time. Avoid this place at all costs.

Suitable for monthly occupancy
Convenient for longer stays; rooms are a good size. Service is good. limited options for breakfast. Meals can be taken at the adjoining hotel Africana. Only a few TV channels. Good kitchenette. Rooms need mosquito proofing above the doors - ask for a net.

Quiet enough, comfortable enough and staff friendly and helpful enough, although an irritating incident when I checked over a small amount of money meant I left there angry over my treatment.
