Rooms could have been cleaner,!!! Lobby was full of people trying to check in , 2 girls behind the desk seemed to be more in a party mood rather than interested in the customer . my personal check in took over a hour ! I chose Holiday Inn because I often stay there when travelling but I’ll never go to the downtown Cape Town Holiday Inn again
