That's a hard question to answer. We get most of our information about Cleopatra from the Roman point of view, which is the view of the victor and so they won't say too many good things about her. However, the ancient writers give her grudging admiration for the fact that she committed suicide as it was considered an honorable way to die in Roman eyes. Then too, Cleopatra was a very wealthy royal. She was in a position to grant favors to people and she more than likely had a lot of flatterers and "fair weather friends" all trying to get favors from her. Her servants and staff certainly were quick to abandon her, as her slave told Octavian that Cleopatra had hidden away some jewels that she was supposed to have turned over to the Romans and her son Caesarion's tutor was the one who turned him in to the Romans.
