Guest Reviews
- Zinhle (5/5): -
- Julian (4/5): Unbearably stuffy and hot; no airflow; noisy nightclub on premises. No-one to meet to get the keys. - Good location. Bed is fine. Good kitchen facilities in the room. The windows do not open much, and so there is not air flow through the room. The fan was decent quality (quiet, but could not stretch to the bed. The room ends up being very stuffy.
There is a nightclub on the same premises, with loud music from 5pm to 11pm. Also very noisy with students.
- Cameron (5/5): For what I paid for one night, compared to what I’ve usually paid at other hotels, apartments, or guest houses, I expect - The stay was disappointing. Some areas seemed dirty, and the overall space felt old, worn, and not well maintained, with cupboards and carpets in poor condition.
- Thea (8/5): Just what we needed. - Location was perfect as we were in Stellenbosch for an event at Casa Cerveza which can be accessed from the same property as the accommodation. I felt very safe walking to and from the restaurant on my own.
William was very nice and friendly. He handed over the keys and showed us around. Thank you William. It was very warm at night and the fan didn't really cool things down too much. Aircon could have been really nice.
- Collison (6/5): - Convenient, clean and spacious. I didn't like that there was no TV.
- Laura (10/5): -
- Kathrin (7/5): Good for budget accommodation. - The location. Getting and giving back the keys was a mission.
Also the advertised a sofa bed in the bedroom but this was not a sofa bed and they did not allow for a person to sleep on it so why do they advertise it as a sofa bed?
- Moerdyk (7/5): -
- Katlego Succeed (7/5): -
- Ek (5/5): - Good accomodation overall but the fact that the wifi was not working at all drags down the overall grade.
- Greenwood (7/5): -
- Nqobile (7/5): - Peaceful and clean No for on entertainment i.e TV
- Oberholzer (3/5): Poor stay. - Location Not what was advertised. Very ropey.
- Mapheelo (5/5): - It was affordable and located within reach of lots of amenities We had few not so nice encounters, but the staff attended to them.
- JACQUES (8/5): - Breakfast not included Nothing
- Bakolise (10/5): I enjoyed my stay at black horse accommodation and would recommend it to anyone coming to stellenbos - The accommodation is close to all amenities, the owner responds quickly to resolve any issues Nothing actually, the property served my purpose to traveling
- BERYL (4/5): Central position but very basic. - Centrally situated although bars in area very noisy until 11pm No television.
Headboard very old and ragged with pieces of plastic falling onto the pillows.
- Francois (7/5): -
- Ilse (6/5): - I was accommodated on the first floor instead of the third floor with heavy luggage to carry up a staircase. When the fan broke it was swapped with a working fan. No cooking facilities. No table spoons for eating cereal. The bathroom smelled like male urine. Please use cleaning chemicals to keep the bathroom fresh for guests.
- Guest (2/5): - Nothing.in that accommodation No facilities too many flight of stairs to climb. No tv or wifi
- Lala (3/5): -
- Juergen (7/5): -
- Louise Seekles (7/5): - Het is een klein appartement/studio met een badkamer, keuken, slaapkamer en een bank. De locatie is top, dichtbij het centrum. Een latere checkin was mogelijk, het was alleen even zoeken naar de beveiliger De hygiëne was niet top, prima voor een nacht maar op de vloer lagen nog was viezigheidjes
- Paul (9/5): - Great stay at BlackHorse, had everything you needed for a one-night stay! It was slightly confusing to get the keys as the reception was closed when I arrived, but someone was able to meet me to hand them over!
- Jaco (7/5): - No aircon, no wifi, no tv
- Karen (8/5): - Walking distance from all amenities
- Dorin Claudiu (7/5): - La posizione ed il prezzo No Wi-Fi, no aria condizionata
- Paymenow Group Pty Ltd (7/5): -
- Samkele (10/5): -
- Rebecca (7/5): - Parkplatz im Innenhof. Lage ist grundsätzlich gut in Stadtnähe, aber direkt angrenzend ist eine Bar die länger laut ist. Bett fällt schon auseinander/Leder des Kopf Teiles blättert ab und liegt am Kopf Polster. Im Bad gibt es teilweise Schimmel.
- Ruth (5/5): It was fine and passable but with just a little more attention to detail could make all the differen - The location was great and just what I needed. No hair dryer, the noise of the bins outside and students preparing for nights out or on nights out
- Calem (10/5): - Everything I think it was cool WiFi not the best
- MacKenzie (6/5): -
- AW (5/5): Two night stay at good location but not good for tourists. - Location with regard to places we wanted to go to was good. Secure parking was provided. Very noisy bar next door to facility mad sleeping before midnight impossible. There is no TV in the room and furniture is old. This more appropriate as student lodging than tourists.
- Yusra (8/5): - I missed check in time so I did not meet any staff but the security helped me. He even helped me with my bags when I checked out.
He also That it was clean and tidy
WiFi was good and easy to connect to
The little tea, coffee and milk sachets really came in handy. The toilet seat needs attention. It slips to the side and makes you feel like you going to fall.
A suggestion would also be to add a TV to the room

- Vuyiseka (8/5): Very good - Security, accessible The smell not sure if it was a carpet of what?
- Kapinga (10/5): Exceptional - What i like about the place was the locations , easy walking distance to checkers and restaurants.
The stuff was very friendly.
The apartment was clean and presentable including free wiffi .
Parking was safe . I have nothing to comment about it.
Everything was well for me .
- Kayla (7/5): Good -
- Chris (6/5): Good. - Nice and central, clean and well kept. The overall quality of the furnishings. It's a really nice place but it feels like an R800/night room and not a R1200/night room.
The lack of an airconditioner is a big nono in this price bracket.
Wifi would occasionally grind down to a snail's pace.
- Stephanie (7/5): Good - Super central and some really nice restaurants in walking distance.
Check-in was super easy and the staff members were very kind and helpful.
There is safe parking.
The room was as described and very clean.
The accomodation is next to a pub. So there is noise coming from that side but when you close the windows and door you can hardly hear it.
- Shalani (8/5): Very good -
- Jane (7/5): Good -
- Andrew (8/5): Very good -
- Belinda (1/5): Absolute NO GO if you want to sleep/rest! - Beds & lounge area clean. Location next pub - very loud live music until midnight! Made it impossible to sleep/rest.
Woken up to numerous wheelie bins being taken out of property @ 5h30am, very noisy and shouting to eachother!
- Margo (5/5): Passable -
- Veronique (8/5): Practical and central - The highlight of the place ius the location, on the main street, walking distance from everything.
Studio appartement in a complex. Nothing fancy, but clean and fully equipped.
Check in was easy with the security guard. Very friendly person.
- Ngoni (5/5): Passable -
- Samantha (6/5): Pleasant -
- Lecticia (5/5): Passable -
- Kirkman (5/5): Passable -
- Danie (3/5): Even Half price would have been a rip-off - I arranged to be going in in the very early morning hours
Security was horrible to find and when I manage to get his attention he did not greet even though I greeted first. I'm sure he was disabled to speak cause he looked me dead in the eyes and just turned again.
The access gate is out of proper operation and not locked.
The room door as poor and I felt unsafe.
The toilet flushing meganism is not properly inserted / fitted and was sticking out so far that 2 hands is necessary to secure and flush the toilet.
I had to leave early again but again could not find security any ware until I managed to get hold of management on a contact number. I could not leave the premisses in time for my meeting
- Adelle (7/5): Good -
- Neil (8/5): Very good -
- Alan (8/5): Very good - Convenient, central, comfortable. Check-in for latecomers could be simpler, but the security man was very helpful. It's a noisy spot in term time. I didn't mind at all, but some might.
- Nesa (3/5): Poor - good location broken kitchen facilities. power plugs didnt work- and only 3 point outlets.
- Jacques (8/5): Very good -
- Julian (6/5): Value for money, great location, but needs better windows to allow airflow (given no aircon). - Good price. Convenient location. No aircon, which is fine at that price point - but the windows do not open except a tiny crack, and so you can’t get any airflow through the room to cool it down at night.
- Kerry (8/5): Very good -
- Adam (4/5): Below average at best. - The property is well located in Stellenbosch within easy walking distance to the centre. There is complimentary parking at the property which is great especially if you have driven there as it is one less thing to have to worry about. The place is below average at best. When I booked it gave me the choice of a few different rooms that had different features and we selected the one that sounded the largest, however all the rooms are identical. They advertise that they have Wifi but they do not. The staff were generally quite rude. We had to change rooms because the first room that we slept in, the one bed had completely collapsed however they could only change the room the following day. The general maintenance of the place has not been kept up and many things are broken or badly fixed. The room we were put in had a distinct smell to it too which was quite off-putting. There is a restaurant opposite the accommodation which I can imagine would get very loud once all the students are back as it seems to be a sports pub so if you are a light sleeper, this isn't for you.
- Angela (8/5): Very good -
- Michelle (2/5): Will not book these rooms again - The security guard was helpful. Helped us carry baggage and gave us directions for parking.
The location is fantastic
Parking was safe The decor looks secondhand, and nothing fits. All is old and looks like hand-me-downs.
Kitchen drawers had holes in
Kitchen facilities are bad
No lift had to carry heavy bags up 3 floors
The room had an old smell to it
- Sean (5/5): Passable - What breakfast? Noisy ceiling fan not great
- Sam (8/5): Very good -
- Brucer (8/5): Great Location - A safe, secure and clean Apartment. Great Location, walking distance to Shops, Restaurants and Bars.
- Sarita (7/5): Good location, good nights rest, but not a value for money. - The location and the staff. The mattresses need replacement and the shower door in one room was broken.
- Sarita (7/5): Good stay, but not a value for money. - The good location and the staff, property was very clean. The mattresses need replacement and the shower door in one room was broken.
- Surika (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robin (8/5): Very good - The location was good with several restaurants nearby and easy access Although we did not find it an issue, one must be aware there are no lifts, so you will need to carry your bags up one or two flights of stairs, depending whether your apartment is on the first or second floor of the building

- Sipungu (5/5): It's alright. Please get curtains for the front window. - The front window - by the passage where everyone walks by - did not have curtains. I had to use towels as makeshift curtains.
- Heather (8/5): Easy access, no nonsense process - Central to everything in town Cutaining not totally adequate
- Yvonne (1/5): Unacceptable standard lack of customer care and communication - Unfortunately, my colleagues opted not to stay
