The location is great and very convinient especially since it was graduation it was a few minutes from UJ. Everything was great no complaints. N/A

- Joseph Schoeman (10/5): - Nice and quiet Antique furniture
- Morna (10/5): Perfect for a quiet stay close to the centre of Melville. - Quiet rooms in a gated community just off the main area in Melville. Comfortable with a beautiful breakfast and pool area in the gardens. The hosts were really friendly and helpful. It was exactly what we needed.
- Tommaso (2/5): -
- Andrew Roberts (9/5): Excelente experiencia en 7th Street Guest House - recomendado - El cuarto era fantástico, especialmente considerando por el precio. El propietario y el equipo de atención directa eran muy amables y apoyaron en diversos momentos. La localización generó seguridad y al mismo tiempo una buena integración a la ciudad por Uber. La oferta de desayuno fue rico y aunque no estaba incluído en el precio, no me cobraron. Sin embargo, podría haber sido un poco más amplio.
- martin (8/5): It was okay - I never had the chance to take the breakfast so I cant say something about it. The location was calm and serene Location

- manon (9/5): - Calme, proche Melville, sécuritaire

- MONZANGA MAKAMBO (6/5): Une déception - Position géographique très risqué Il parle de 4etoiles mais a ma grande surprise rien de 4etoile. Une déception comme pas possible. Franchement je ne recommande pas.
- makaota (9/5): -

- Cynthia (7/5): -
- Claude (10/5): The service was fabulous, super accommodating and very well organised. Thank you to all the staff. -

- Eldene (7/5): Good - Hospitality was great Water was off on the first day
- Ian (9/5): Superb -
- Jacolette (8/5): Very good - Room has a mold smell. Shower door was not working and the shower tap doesn’t regulate the warm water well. Rooms are also extremely cold. Beds are very comfortable and the host was very professional and friendly.
- Ian (9/5): Very comfortable & convenient -
- Rudi (7/5): Good -
- Noluthando (1/5): They can do a lot better - The location was closer to shopping centre's We had no water and they don't have alternatives we had to bath with buckets during our stay. The place was also dirty on the floor bathroom as worst 😭
- Moumakwe (4/5): Disappointing - Location perfect and the area safe There was a lizard on out ceiling in the room. There was no water for toilets and bathing. The owner made a plan but it was not sufficient
- Dimakatso (1/5): HORRIBLE. - Nothing! That place is horrible! There was no water for the during of my stay. I had nothing to bath with for the duration of my stay and the owner was unbothered and told me where will he get water from I should see where to go and bath. The bed was not made and looked like someone had been sleeping in it before I came. I don’t know how Booking.com has such a property on their listing. I even don’t know how the South African authorities gave it a license to operate.
- Jarrod (9/5): Great place at a reasonable price - Great rooms and facilities at a reasonable price. Rudi was really friendly and accommodating.
- Tlaleng (9/5): Superb - The hospitality, the staff was very friendly and accommodating The fact that Johannesburg did not have water.
- Lindelwa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Juan (10/5): Exceptional - This is the only guesthouse to stay in Johannesburg. Perfect for both business and leisure travel and located centrally, in a safe and quiet suburb. Thank you, Rudi and team, for always making me feel at home in your beautiful guesthouse.
- Molefe (7/5): Great stay with great helpful staff had no issues while I was there and if I did it was sorted in 5mins - Very quiet and a very helpful friendly staff Walking to the main road is a lot if you are unfit lol
- Candice (7/5): Good -
- C. (8/5): Very good -
- Tiemo (9/5): Great value - Family room, beds were very comfortable, the breakfast was great and the service from the personnel was amazing and friendly. The bathroom was a little bit hidden with no room and a but damp. You could also hear the neighbouring room very well, who unfortunately woke up at 5am.
- Smit (9/5): Superb -
- Wesley (5/5): It was a convenient lo action for me - It's in a good location I arrived when there was no water so it was really difficult. However, this was a problem affecting the entire suburb
- Odendaal (8/5): Very good -
- Sam (8/5): Very good -
- Brown (8/5): Very good -
- Tanguy (8/5): Very good - Nice place. Well maintained. Friendly staff.
- Sello (9/5): Very nice place in a very quite area. - The facility is very nice and comfortable. Owners and staff are very nice people. Just for the price if it can include breakfast will add more benefit. None
- Merell (6/5): Pleasant -
- Ayanda (10/5): Exceptional - The place is clean and the environment is refreshing
- Brendan (8/5): Very good - Friendly and helpful owner Noisy guests next to our room woke us up at 02h30 which was very inconsiderate
- Lennon (2/5): Unsatisfactory and Very poor service. - Hi , i did enjoy the breakfast prepared by the cook Cindy. She was very welcoming and very hospitable. I did not like the fact that the 1st week of staying at the lodge, they did not clean my room at all. They don't change the bedding's, they did not clean the bathrooms, i was given 1 towel to use for the 1 week, lucky i always carry towels when i travel and they charged me R150 for doing 1 load of my washing. My clothes was put into the machine with all the white bedding's and towels, the fluff caught on all my clothes. They had no sense of hospitality. The gardens are full of spider webs, leaves everywhere and dirty outdoor furniture. I did not enjoy my experience at the lodge.The Sunday i had to sweep my own room and dust everywhere.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Unhappy customers 😑 - This is definitely not a 4 stars hotel. It must be a 2 stars boutique homestay instead. Room is too small for 2 king bed. Bathroom is too small with old shower stall. Old furniture and squeaking wood floor. Felt unwelcome by the management. Definitely not happy stay and not recommend to others.
- Bryan (7/5): A couple's retreat in Melville. - The staff exhibited a high level of hospitality, making concerted efforts to accommodate all our requests and requirements. They exceeded expectations by going the extra mile to ensure our stay was enjoyable, actively engaging with us and providing valuable suggestions regarding the various amenities at our disposal. The WiFi connection in our bedroom was notably poor; in fact, it failed to connect entirely. To maintain a stable connection, we had to purchase our own data or resort to standing or sitting outside. I recommend that the accommodation consider installing a more robust WiFi extender in areas where the signal currently does not reach, addressing this connectivity issue for future guests.
