Fomo Lodge

It is in a lovely quiet neighborhood close to parks and very family friendly.
However service was mediocre, rooms are spacious and bed was comfortable but could use a deep clean. You do get somewhat good value for money.

Upon arrival and the first day, The Toilet didn’t flush. The face recognition was frustrating and most importantly, the noise level at night and mornings in the corridors. Trying to find the lady at the desk was a task. Tried to speak to a gentlemen about everything above, of whom ignored me which was absolutely wonderful ???? ….

The manager of this place offered so many things for free for all that went wrong, in the end got zero back except feeling nauseous from the revolting smell of cigarettes that came out of his mouth.

Best you find a different apartment to staying at so you don’t experience this.

I would like to let you know guys that this place is not nice , Receptionist was a not presentable and she was very rough . Furniture rooms is not what it looks like . Cutlery very dirty. Sink is always full of dirty dishes , there was noise in the rooms we thought we were being robbed and there was no one controlling it???? To my surprise we checkout without even to see anyone of that place . Carboards are dirty there is always a smell like toilet the whole house . If you book it is at your own risk i was there i know what i saw and i will never ever recommend it. Please those people i read your recommendations next time try to tell the truth . To me it was disgusting i end up buying take aways cause you cannot stand the kitchen . BOOK AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Terrible treatment from staff

We made a booking on the booking app but for some reason it book two separate rooms for me and my husband which we didn't book it that way as we booked one room I then phone the Fomo Lodge and corrected our booking which we were told that everything has been sorted and I did explain we are coming down from the Eastern cape with a 4 month old baby and don't want any problems through and during the week with whatsapp messages and phoning make sure everything is in order I was told it was booked and we don't have to worry we can just come in and pay. The morning before our arrival I still spoke to them and was told your room is ready I still had another employee to confirm with us when we got there it was extremely bad there is no welcome or a sign informing guest where to go and book just beware in mind you have been driving for 8 hours with a baby that needs to be feed soon we finally found where we need to book in on arrival I inform them that we are Davis and we have booked the room with the bathroom and 3 beds which he stood there shocked and confused and said this room was never booked only the 2 separate rooms which I explained that I did phone and sorted it out and I have phoned and all the whatsapp messages through the week and even before we left to make sure everything is still in order and booked the employee said the room has been taking and we have to pay for two separate room. We left with our irritable hungry little one to try and find another lodge then we get a call informing us that the room that was booked for us is available then he lied about it by saying that he said the people where checking out at 10am and they are cleaning which wasn't what we were told but he was so rude just the whole arrival and how we were treated is unbelievable if you are in this type of business you welcome your guest.Close this lodge down or get high educated staff that know how to do their jobs. We found a amazing lodge which is Town lodge and immediately we felt welcome and we were given a room very quickly due to our little one such amazing customer service

I was here 4 months back,things were fine except:
-receptionists leave the desk for along time you have to look for them when you need help,coz they don't respond quickly on whatsapp,when you want the gate to be opened you have to wait.
- The light that was to be fixed was never,till I checked out.
-A noise and smoke on the passage need to be dealt with.
-As I'm speaking I am here again because it's closer to where I'm here for,the noise is still a problem,there's no order in the kitchen(of which I complained on my arrival that they never tell me anything about it) ,a group of guys are just doing mess there,cooking milk with the kettle we use it for water,adding spices in that milk????they say they'll wash it,what about the smell? Nobody is calling them in order.
-Can the owner randomly pay a visit to see all these things? coz I believe it's the visitors who are causing these problems mostly.This one of smoking in passages is badly affecting our wellness
Otherwise I like the place and is affordable
-Alsi the owner must find a way of communicating neatness to the receptionists,maybe introducing uniform of some kind,they are really not presentable.
