Alida the owner is such a warm, welcoming and lovely person. From the welcome door sign upon our arrival and the little gifts which we found...they are all such a personal touch and appreciated. We found the accommodation itself to be large & spacious & felt very homely. Load shedding is a BIG problem in SA but thankfully we were not affected too much by it for our short stay, plus there is a portable gas ring to boil a kettle for that all important cup of tea! There are also a couple of emergency lights.... It is located in a residential area, that is nice and quiet...and within a fairly reasonable distance to walk to a couple of nearby bars and restaurants & we felt it was in a safe area to do so. ##### lisa Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Juliana 20 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Conforto e aconchego Amei a casa, linda em todos os detalhes.
