Average, stayed here three times over the last month….two with tour group, and the other booked myself. Room for my own booking was tired and had a dreadful shower over bath…. Tour booking was better. Situated near the airport with free shuttle was only standout

The excellent breakfast and friendly staff were worth the booking, but the rooms require some serious maintenance/ upgrading. From the carpets to the bathroom walls, simple things like paint and getting rid of mould would go a long way.

We stayed in room 161 and it is a bit tired - in need of refurbishment to bring it up to current standards and expectations for a quality hotel room. I have stayed in hotel rooms on the other side of the Southern Sun hotel many times and the rooms on that side have always been more up to date and in better condition than room 161.

Good option for a hotel near the airport, but requires the free shuttle or car. Good food for both dinner and breakfast.
