Spent a night and never again. From the quoted price over the phone, price doubled next day when checking out. Not only that, we were a group of 6 people who could easily have fitted into one suite (which has plenty of space and enough beds) but were told to take two units. Veyr basic and old fashiioned - could... More

This little gem is worth a visit. I have just spent a week there while on a business trip to East London, it is very central and made getting to my appointments very easy. My room had the most spectacular view, the service was very good especially by the evening staff in the restaurant. I had a large screen TV... More

The room was clean and nice. Hotel is far away from other amenities. Without a car you will not survive. Beach clean and accessible but there are no lifeguards. Staff helpful. Good for a quiet weekend with a book and beach walks.

Keeping in mind that I am in E. London S.A., the "Lagoon" is a good as any and better than most. The rooms are about average, few t.v. channels are available, no water view from almost all of the rooms, and the cost for goods received is below average. The rooms could do with an upgrade to justify the cost... More

Having used tripadvisor for a few years now I have very rarely had to write a review of somewhere that I thought was truly terrible as I tend to avoid places which get those reviews.
