Guest reviews for Aristo Manor

3 out of 5

Self-catering units not as good as guest house

Pros: Nothing much. Well, the aircon worked ...
Cons: Refurbish the self-catering units as a matter of urgency. If security is needed in the neighbourhood, don't offer it as an optional extra at a charge!
Location: Residential area, but right behind main road, so not entirely quiet. Beach within a 10-minute drive.
We booked a self-catering unit on the strength of the guest house's good reviews. While I cannot really comment on the guest house rooms, the self-catering unit was disappointing. Everything looked and felt tired and in need of a refresh. Upon departure we were not asked whether we were satisfied or whether everything had been o.k. - probably for a reason. The most disappointing stay of our 2 1/2 week trip of SA.
