Riverview Lodge

Accommodating & Friendly

It was possibly the worst and most shocking place I ever stayed over. Besides that nobody knew my booking was for a single room because they did not have a 'booking sheet' with any details of my arrival, I was placed in a dorm room with 3 bunk beds instead of a single room. The walls were dirty and paint chipping off. I smelled of raw gas leaking from somewhere outside. To the closest bathroom, I had to walk trough a TV lounged, where I was told to 'suka' which I very well know what it means. There was no manager or person on duty that I could talk to, to help me in this regard. The bathroom smelled like piss and was dirty. Where the 3 stars came from, heavens only know. The outside area where one could sit was dirty, boxes with old books and a big bag of dirty laundry was on top of the tables. As a matter of fact, I did not even bother unpacking, I immediately had to call somebody to come and fetch me there and to make alternative plans. I was in shock. I will never recommend your 'lodge', not even to my worst enemy.
