My stay at Pablo House was truly a good experience, marked by very nice service, stylish decor, and a lovely ambiance. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate me, especially during load shedding, creating a romantic atmosphere with lanterns and torches. The only downside was the noise level from certain rooms due to proximity to the restaurant. Overall, I felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout my visit. 🌟😊

The restaurant offered amazing food and cocktails, but the noise from the creaky floors was a bit distracting at times.
