- Carmen (9/5): -
- Con (9/5): -
- Hill (9/5): - Really good location and value for money Nothing
- Curteis ROBERTS (7/5): - Solar, Borehole and safe area with fence. The house is old and beautiful. It's a shared house. The people staying there acted like they owned the place. The cost per room is definitely high for a shared house.
- Veronica (9/5): - The location was perfect for us. It was wonderful that our group could all stay in one place. One couple in our party were in an inside room (yellow), and were woken by other residents using the kitchen at midnight. It is important to emphasise quiet after 10pm
- Train (10/5): - The area, gardens, proximity to my family, safety and simplicity... Nothing
- Shenny14 (9/5): - The bed was really comfy, and the room was clean. The kitchen was well equipped. The bathroom was clean and lovely to use. It felt homely. Communication was so clear and i was able to have a late check out in order to take a mid morning meeting. Thank you for a pleasant stay.
- Cherina (10/5): Fabulous and definitely a repeat - Quiet, plenty of birds, places to sit outside, never runs out of water, solar so electricity, all amenities to self cater, extremely clean, nice linen, central area to everything.
- Johann (9/5): - Location was close to where I needed to be the next day. Room was clean and perfect for an overnight stay.
- Lester (8/5): Just the place I would stay again - The location
- Solwazi (10/5): Safe and secure. Safety - Amazing host and Staff. Absolutely loved the place will definitely go back. Very Safe and secure. Nothing I couldn't fix myself.
- Mbokazi (10/5): Perfect - I had booked for a work trip and it was absolutely immaculate. The room and house I was in was beautiful styled and had a modern but vintage feel to it. I highly recommend for any Instagram enthusiasts and honestly just for anyone who likes the finer things in life. I was met with Claire for check-in and she was so sweet and such a lovely soul. She helped make my first trip to Johannesburg so much sweeter. I especially loved the heater in the room as it was freezing in the morning.

- Thembeka (8/5): Comfortable stay in a good location. Megs and Theresa were friendly and helpful. - I stayed for 5 nights and as a single woman, being alone on some nights when I was the only guest left me a bit uneasy. I wish there was someone who stayed overnight for security purposes.

- Anthea (10/5): Great value - highly recommended. - This was our second visit to The Franklyn Parkview and once again we had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. Our previous stay was in January (summer) - this time around we visited during the colder months (May) and the rooms were warm, cosy and perfectly appointed.
- Tessa (6/5): Impersonal check-in/check-out, suitable for longer stays. - What was great was that the room had a tiny kitchen, which makes it suitable for a longer stay. Very impersonal - owner nowhere to be found.
- Borbála (10/5): Cozy, spacious room in a nice environment. Highly recommended. - Nice location, responsible host, and beautiful place to stay. They were accommodating with a later check out, that was great!
- Mahlako (8/5): Very good -

I had a back room which was quaint and sufficient for me
Cold water in fridge!
Cold milk in fridge.
Pricing - extremely good value
No aircon although the fan was sufficient
The room was south facing and at the back of the house so less likely to get hot. Slippery slope from bathroom to kitchen.
You could hurt yourself if you did not take notice of the slope.
No bin for kitchen
Windows are a tad old but other than that the place is immaculate
- Anthea (10/5): Old Johannesburg charm - The property is located in a very quiet suburb with easy access to main routes. The house is newly renovated and all the rooms are well-appointed and thoughtfully decorated. The original thick walls provide excellent soundproofing so there was no noise from other rooms. We booked three rooms and made use of the communal kitchen and dining room for dinner, which was perfect for our group. Our host was very gracious and happy to accommodate our group's needs. We will definitely stay there again!
- Adri (10/5): Exceptional -
