My stay at Road Lodge Umhlanga Ridge was pretty solid overall. The location is prime, next to the Gateway shopping mall, which made shopping and strolling a breeze. The staff was consistently helpful and courteous, but I felt the dining options, especially for breakfast and dinner, could use a little more flair. The rooms were basic but kept clean, which I appreciated.
