- Stefano (10/5): - Pine è davvero un padrone di casa premuroso e gentile. Mi ha fornito tutte le istruzioni necessarie per vivere al meglio il mio soggiorno presso la sua struttura. Camera spaziosa, così come il bagno. Asciugamani puliti e asciutti ogni giorno. Partendo presto per andare alla fiera Nampo, preparava tutti i giorni una colazione take away.
Grazie per l'ospitalità e spero di tornar ancora in questa struttura.

- Andre (10/5): Beautiful, stylish accommodation in quiet part of Potchefstroom - Very spacious and well appointed bedrooms in a beautiful setting in a very quiet part of Potchefstroom, close to the University. The owners and staff were so friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Access to a small kitchen and eating area with coffee, tea and snacks was available the whole day. Very spacious front garden with seating areas for guests. Safe parking was also available. We will most certainly be back. Everything was wonderful.

The hosts are incredibly friendly, helpful, and always go the extra mile to make guests feel welcome. The kitchen facilities are great and the complimentary continental breakfast is a wonderful touch. The location is also perfect – conveniently close to the university and nearby shopping center. Highly recommended!

- Pieter (10/5): - Love this stay, the host very friendly!
- Anri (5/5): - Breakfast was disapointing. Breakfast included are warm breakfast. Not bread, cereal and yogurt. Thinl it should be specified. Breakfast inlcuded is misleading. Grab and go is not breakfast included. Yogurt, bread and cereal is not worth it to call it breakfast included.

Nulla

- Bonolo (7/5): -
- Bonolo (10/5): Home away from home - No appropriate words to describe it….better than excellent Nothing

- Jolene (10/5): Awesome Guesthouse 👌🔥 - I loved everything about the place. Location, the room everything. Most importantly the owner. His kindness and hospitality. I am most certainly going back
- Joanna (10/5): - Very friendly welcome & comfortable room.
- Felicia (5/5): -
- Tokologo (10/5): Awesome - It’s quiet and clean Nothing at all
- EMMERITUS (10/5): -
- Ingrid (9/5): Home away from home - Very welcoming host
- Nkosazana (10/5): -
- Nelisa (10/5): I liked the self serve offerings of fresh fruits, buns, condiments, juice, etc - It’s quiet and pleasant N/A
- Antoinette (10/5): -
- Laurianne (6/5): - The place was absolutely stunning and quiet. I loved the the location, as well as the room. The facility has 4 dogs. That wouldn’t be a problem if the dogs were friendly. I wasn’t able to use the backyard, which was stunning, because their 2 massive dogs would definitely attack you on sight.
They were quite aggressive, and would try to jump the fence if you as so much as walked past them.
I have stayed at guest houses that had dogs and cats before and I have never minded, but it would be nice if the dogs were at least friendly enough so that the guest could be allowed to use the beautiful backyard without getting barked at aggressively. This explains why the price of the room was so affordable.
- Van Dyk (10/5): - Loved the "help yourself kitchen", with healthy food options and great coffee. Great location. Cool room Even though it was more than 35degrees celsius outside. Need some signage outside. Had to do a double check to see if I was at the right place.
- Gareth (10/5): - Very clean and functional. The owner is very helpful and the grab and go breakfast is a winner.
- Nicolaas Faure (10/5): Another pleasant home from home. - The beautiful large house and rooms which were very well furnished was an immense pleasure to stay. The rooms had everything one needs and more. The lovely garden view and excellent service made the stay so much more pleasant! Pine and his team really want to go the extra mile to accommodate you and your stay! It was a challenge to find something that I did not like, except that when I want to book, they are fully booked or the room I prefer is used, but not much one can do about that, except to book early!
- Walters (10/5): -
- Mandla Presley (10/5): -
- Barry (9/5): Highly recommended guesthouse - Friendly and accommodating host. Excellent communication and very responsive. Room was large and comfortable with many amenities. Self-help breakfast arrangements were useful. Highly recommended.
- Jacek (9/5): -
- Marti (10/5): - The hosts were extremely hospitable...I truly felt welcome and the room as well as access to the kitchen 24/7 was an added bonus.
- H. Rudolph (10/5): If you have to visit NWU, this is a really nice place to stay. - What an entrance and house - we had to check the address a couple of times to make sure we were at the right place. Nice and very large rooms. The dogs are certainly not for petting, but they really want to play.
- Karen (4/5): would of been awesome if there was someone to communicate with as the guesthouse is beautiful - snacks in the kitchen There was no staff to be seen. it was a issue getting in and out of property it was like living in a ghost house
- Botsane (10/5): -
- Cindy (10/5): -
- Duncan (9/5): Great stay and very hospitable hosts. - Very close to the university and schools. Aircons in the rooms. Kitchen with fridge and appliances. Loose fitting in the bathroom sink.
