*good bang for the buck
The hotel was very clean and the staff was eager to please. My only negative is that I was unable to use the room phone to call out. I was constantly having to call the front desk in order to be switched out.

Helpful staff - decent location
Traveled to Durban for one week in May 2009. This was my first trip to Africa. The hotel was clean, the staff very willing to help, the restaurant and bar better than decent. The rooms were cozy and generally comfortable and quiet. The location isn't in the safest part of town. It's right on the beach and a great spot during the day, but my companion and I were advised not to wander around after dark near the hotel. I never felt unsafe, but we were definitely extra cautious (as you should be when traveling to South Africa - and any big city in the world). Needed to use an ATM one evening and a member of the staff walked with me around the block to the nearest one. He said I shouldn't go to an ATM alone. More expensive hotels up the beach were generally considered to be in safer areas. Buffet breakfast. WiFi (with voucher purchase) available in the rooms. The business lounge has to computers with internet, but the were both out-of-order for the length of my stay. I'd love to travel to Durban again and if I couldn't find a great deal on a hotel further up the beach then I would consider staying here again.

Long walk from hotel
Visit Victoria Market and the surrounding area for a great taste of the local culture. Might be worth hiring a walking guide for an "Oriental Walkabout."

OK Hotel
The hotel was ok. I'd recommend it for someone who is staying in Durban for a day or two. The main thing I didn't like was the location (the beach is not very clean). The hotel front desk staff were not very friendly. Overall the room was cheap so I can't really complain that much.

Across the street from the hotel is a sort of African market where you can buy cheap african curios.
