“Sun1 Durban has some trade-offs, given its location near a busy bus depot and some noise issues; however, the exceptionally welcoming staff, particularly Slindile, seems to make a real difference for many visitors. The security presence also gives a sense of safety, which is a definite plus in this area. It's a budget-friendly option where the human touch stands out.”
