Manor 38

The location, and Christopher the friendly and helpful host and lovely staff.

The bed linen was not clean or fresh, and even the towels in the bathroom were crumpled up. The shower in the bathroom was most peculiar, you had to stand with your feet wide apart or risk slipping into the shower drain. The breakfast was just not nice (e.g. eggs rubbery instead of medium done, everything fried in margarine or other oil).

Everything

Manor 38 is located in Summerstrand Port Elizabeth. The Manor is beautiful, nicely decorated with spacious bedrooms and bathroom, private television, WiFi, etc. It also has two large sitting rooms, one with a large television and fireplace for all guests to use, plus a gorgeous swimming pool. The daily breakfast is preordered, with selections from fruit plate, cereal, toasts, eggs cooked many different ways, including omelettes. The staff, specially Christopher, deserve recognition for outstanding service. They were helpful with recommendations, tour reservations, and much more. Please note that Port Elizabeth has some issues with alcohol and drug addictions so important to be vigilant. But thumbs up to Manor 38 and a super staff!

The host was great

The room was out dated and felt cramped. The carpets are old and full of stains

On arrival you come up to a large gate so you have space to park your car safely The person checking us in was nice and welcoming, you need to tick what you want for breakfast on arrival which l don’t like to do as l do not know how hungry l will be. The room was clean and presentable but it didn’t have an air conditioner but had an over head fan that unfortunately was squeaky so couldn’t use it so we didn’t have the best sleep. (The cheaper room inside does have air conditioner) The tv was hard to work, and couldn’t find any local channels, but it did have Netflix and some other apps when you got it working. The pool is a good size but it needed a net to get all the leaves out and it did have something at the bottom which didn’t look inviting, when we arrived the sun was setting and so the pool was a bit cold for me to swim. ( next morning it still needed cleaning but nothing was done) Breakfast was very nice, coffee (cafeteria)which was nice, orange juice l am not sure it was fresh as it tasted artificial. I had fresh fruits and yoghurt and muesli followed by a cooked breakfast it was all very nice, and cooked Perfectly I think with some friends this place would be nice, or even some more guests, but if you like the quiet then it’s more for you.

Luxury room should be called standard room. Cold shower, cold reception, breakfast that need to be chosen a day before

The location was great - close to everything that we needed.

The rooms looked and felt very dirty. The walls had dirty marks on, the carpets were badly stained and did not feel comfortable walking barefoot. The curtains were stained and dirty.

Breakfast was delicious

Property need maintenance
