Strengths

5 reasons to book

  • Ideal for large groups and families — Apartments come with multiple beds (up to two kings or four-plus extra), providing space for groups of 7 to 12 without crowding.
  • Great value for money — Guests repeatedly highlight the spaciousness and cleanliness relative to the price, especially for bigger parties.
  • Pools and water slides for all ages — An infinity pool, a water park, and a splash pool for kids, with unlimited access, are a consistent highlight.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Lift waits can be long — With 41 floors and only two lifts operating at times, some guests waited up to 20 minutes, especially during peak hours.
  • Parking is tight and not always free — While free parking is available on levels 7 and 8, the spaces are narrow and some guests had to pay extra fees.
  • Cleanliness can be inconsistent — A few guests reported dust mites or the need for a more thorough clean, especially in rooms used by allergy sufferers.
  • Splash pool needs some upkeep — The kids' splash pool was popular but a little maintenance would have improved the experience.
  • Small maintenance issues — Some guests noted that the property would benefit from minor fixes, such as pool maintenance, though these did not overshadow the positives.

“Perfect spot for exploring—Jonker Street and the sights are just a quick walk. The Sky Tower on the top floor gave us incredible night views, and having the mall below made meals and errands easy. Really family-friendly, with plenty of beds and lenient pool rules.”

“Our room had four beds plus an extra one, giving everyone their own space while still being together. Perfect for our group.”

“The elevator wait was the worst part. I stood there up to 20 minutes, packed in with guests and cleaners. Only two lifts running for 41 floors made it almost impossible to move around.”

8Verified guest

“Location was superb for visiting the sights. Check-in was smooth, with clear instructions, and our room had three beds—rare for three of us. The host was friendly and quick to answer.”
