We had a wonderful stay at a budget-friendly 3-star guesthouse. The spacious room in the front had all the amenities we needed, including a microwave, fridge, and reliable wifi. The manager, Vern, and Justine were hospitable and helpful throughout our 10-day business trip. The daily room cleaning service and clean bed linen made our stay even more comfortable. The guesthouse is located in a quiet area, perfect for a peaceful getaway. Although a car is recommended due to the lack of nearby shops and restaurants, the laundry service provided was excellent.
The room we were assigned to did not have a window, a drawback. there was no continental breakfast available, no cheese or similar options.

The hotel facilities were great and I was able to enjoy the pool and braai areas. the location was great as it was in a quiet area but still close to highways and all the places I wanted to visit when exploring the city.
Was all great.

The complementary WiFi and breakfast were nice touches. Good location near popular attractions and easy to get around. Slept well in the comfortable bed.
The room was not clean and had a strong cigarette smell. Bathroom was not properly cleaned and shower had soap scum.

Great staff with a friendly atmosphere, always keen to help. Location was excellent, with easy access to the city and attractions. Free parking was a bonus. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with nice touches including a small fridge and adequate toiletries.
The shower needed extra attention since there was a bit of grime, and the towels could be better. Unfortunately, there were no floor mats in the shower, which could get dirty quickly.
