Izimbali Lodge and Restaurant

the internet network was bad I had to work the bar restaurant side to get the reception there was no aircon and the heater didn't make any difference. the TV and remote are very old not function well I wont recommend the place to anyone

I will never book your place, infact I have told my work not to book anyone there to go thru what I went thru. The guy called him 2nd in charge was very rude, arrogant and disrespectful. When I told him that I will right a formal complain he told me that he will respond to it.

The wall to wall carpets in the bathrooms get wet and never dry this means that there's always a musty smell in the rooms. The bathtub was not cleaned. The fridge was not clean and had a weird smell. There's a door in the room separating the rooms; I could hear everything that was being said next door. Meaning I could not relax and enjoy quite/down time. The linen was not clean; I found a dried up bloody booger in the bed, by the pillows, in between the sheets. I requested clean linen and I was told there was none available (shocking). I was moved to a different room, closer to the gate; I could not sleep, the noise from the trucks on the main road kept me up all night. The food took forever to arrive; I waited 1 hour for two boiled eggs. The desert (pudding) was stale; seemed to have been prepared the day before, but even then we waited hours to receive it, STALE. The worst incident was when one of the waitresses was paid to get me to talk to some strange men at the restaurant. I believe she also shared my room number with the strange men, because when she came to speak to me, she first confirmed my room number; then ask me to follow her to the front desk where the strange men were waiting to speak to me. They had initially propositioned me while I was with my colleagues and I expressed disinterest; so they tricked me into speaking to them in private by using the waitress. The fact that she agreed to that upset me. I did not feel safe at this lodge. The waiters/waitresses should not be accepting money from strangers to give out information about their guests. I did not enjoy my stay at all. I would not recommend it to anyone.
