Pleasurable Accommodation

Love that everything is communicated to me i don't have to struggle. I knew when morning breakfast was and they also try to meet your need about time. So i could eat my morning breakfast without haste and arrive on time at my destination.

There was nothing that i disliked

The guest house was very clean and modern and quite equipped with everything we needed.

Everything was really great. It would be nice if the televisions in the rooms at least the rooms we were in were smart TVs.

Great Staff and great location!

9.0

The Staff was very welcoming and great communication. The breakfast was fantastic and if you have not included it in your booking, please do so, as you will be missing out! The location was ideal for all my meetings as this was at the center of my north to south travels. I would recommend staying here.

Night activities were too far for a lone traveller, but I did catch up on all my emails. :)

A home away from home

9.0

A spacious guesthouse in close proximity to Sandton CBD, the highway, and all amenities. It is set in a peaceful neighborhood, close to the terminus of a cul-de-sac. The house is attached to a tranquil garden with a pool. Rugare and Phindile, who manage the house, are incredibly helpful and cook a delicious breakfast. They really go out of their way to make one feel comfortable. You are treated like family. I would visit again, especially for the treatment from the lovely ladies.

The home shows age-related wear and tear, which could benefit from some TLC. The faucet in the bathroom and the glass vanity shelf inside the shower need fixation. The shower floor and extractor fan in the toilet could do with a deep clean. The towels may need to be replaced soon. Due to the size and layout of the house, sound from the common areas travels freely, which can be disruptive even from inside a closed room. The room is dimly lit, which is exacerbated by the dark wood furniture. It is unclear if this is part of the aesthetic or if it requires maintenance.
