- Lidiya (10/5): Wonderful experience - It was wonderful experience. I wish I could stay longer. Mama Joyce is an energizer and full-time service manager of entire complex. She is a woman of soft heart, sharp mind and tough discipline. She loves her job and takes care about customers as they're her children. Thank you for your kindness, love and hospitality.
The Guesthouse itself is safe, with CCTV monitoring, night guard. Breakfast available on demand, must be paid extra. I noticed back-up generator that ensures uninterrupted power supply. Rooms available at different rates from standard to luxury.
- Lesego (9/5): - Great stay , the house lady was super helpful and welcoming.
I felt at home ❤️
- Jimmy (8/5): Nice stay ! - Nice stay ! Friendly ! Not possible to drink something around the pool !
They should make some drink available around tegenpool !

- Tino (8/5): -
- Barbara (8/5): - The stay was pleasant and enjoyable. The garden was nice and well maintained. The staff was very friendly. Of course, there is always room for improvement, for example the bathroom door could be fixed, but overall the experience was very nice.
- Jan (8/5): -
- Ershil Naidoo (8/5): The guesthouse reviewer - Nice good,clean and comfortable spot. They don't do breakfast as per the staff. Overall good. Need to provide proper irons and ironing boards. Used a makeshift one on buckets as an ironing board :(
Need additional plug points close to the bed for charging your cellphone.

Joyce was a lovely hostess and a highlight of the stay. The neighbour's house alarm kept going off all night.....
No DSTV or any TV channels, seems the owner forgot to pay his bill.
A little maintenance and attention to detail needed.....light fittings etc
- Radebe (7/5): Except for the few mentioned hiccups, we really enjoyed our stay. - 1. The property was impressively clean & comfortable.
2. The Staff was beyond helpful. 1. A pile of paperwork as you check in, while exhausted from a long drive.
2. The television was not working.
3. The Manager only came to see us as we were checking out, to check if we are ok.

- Dean (10/5): Clean, comfortable and convenient - Very lovely and clean guest house that feels like home away from home. Joyce goes above and beyond to ensure all guests are comfortable and well tended to. Nothing is a problem and will certainly stay again in the future. Nothing to complain about.
- Thomas (1/5): Capital nightmare! - It was a terrible experience and a nightmare staying here.
There was nothing to like about the place. Although having booked weeks in advance, the property did not expect us.
The property was difficult to find, since all street name signs were vandalised.
Arriving at the property, the intercom at the gate was not answered, and after considerable hooting, someone appeared who didn`t know that we had a reservation.
The first room assigned to us: lights not working, TV not working, bathroom dirty, curtains damaged.
Eventually a second room was offered: black mould in shower; hot-water tap in shower missing; only half a toilet roll of single-ply; some down-lights broken; only one bedside table lamp; broken bedside table drawer; loose wall sockets; no kitchenette, slippers or robes as advertised.
A complete mess!
- Kagisho (10/5): Exceptional -
- Louis (9/5): Superb -
- Silao (8/5): Good place - Calmness Staff relations with boss. They always boss doesn't allows this and that. Like the boss is very hard to deal with
- Paulo (7/5): Good experience. Might repeat one day if the opportunity arises. - The location, the friendliness of the staff and owner and overall support they provide. Top notch in this regard. The room including bathroom was also good and allowed a good rest. When it rains it got noisy in the room due to a plastic cover nearby. Also, overall a bit expensive for what it is offered. I don't really know alternatives in Gaborone so it may be adequate. Breakfast options are a little underwhelming

Quiet during the week. Not everything is all that well maintained. The DSTV wasn't working. The basin waste was leaking so every time you use it it drips. General maintenance needed.
