Guest Reviews
- Kevin (9/5): We usually stay here on arrival/departure as it's 10 mins drive to the airport. - We had our usual ground floor room, very clean and comfortable, lovely hot shower. We advised our late arrival.
- arno (9/5): Würde ich wieder buchen - Sehr sauber,schöne Zimmer Etwas mehr Auswahl bei Frühstück wäre nett
- Dionisio (10/5): -
- Derek (9/5): - Very clean and staff very helpful and friendly
- Howick (9/5): -
- Marieke (7/5): Gute Unterkunft für die Durchreise - Für eine Nacht eine gute Unterkunft. Das Gästehaus ist schön eingerichtet und das Zimmer war sauber und hatte bis auf einen Föhn alles was man braucht. Das Personal war nett und Vanessa hat uns morgens noch die Kaffeemaschine angemacht, obwohl man regulär eigentlich erst ab 7 Uhr einen Kaffee bekommen kann. Das Fenster des Zimmers war direkt auf eine Hauswand gerichtet, eine schöne Aussicht hatte man demnach nicht. Für eine Nacht war das aber okay.
- Maryna (10/5): Great! - Everything was great! I enjoyed the interior and ambiance. Big parking. Few restaurants walkable around. Safe. We were leaving early at 5 am, they still came and cooked fresh breakfast to take away for us. (Even though I didn’t want to bother them so early) It was delicious. Thank you! N/a
- Robin Waynalda (8/5): - Everything! Nothing.

- Jodache (10/5): -
- Melanie (9/5): - Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und waren rundum zufrieden. Ausreichendes Frühstück. Im Zimmer gab es einen Ventilator aber keine Klimaanlage. Für unsere Temperaturen war das ok.
- Paolo (7/5): Soggiorno per una notte - Buona struttura anche se si trova in una zona un pó isolata e quando siamo arrivati noi (1 gennaio) tutti i localini nei dintorni erano chiusi.
- Christian (10/5): Sauber, sicher und freundlich. - Sehr guter Kontakt und Absprache per What‘sApp vor der Anreise. Nah am Flughafen gelegen (10 min mit dem Auto). Perfekt als erste Unterkunft am Anreisetag.
- Omphile (9/5): -
- terence (8/5): - L accueil du personnel
Établissement sécurisé et confortable
Bon petit déjeuner
Charme des lieux
Petites attentions comme le the et le café a disposition Environnement extérieur (rue, quartier) froid et sans charme
- Suleman (8/5): -
- Llewellyn George (1/5): - Not much at all Mould and serious damp all over the main room wall , I had to move my bed away from the wall in order to sleep there the first night. That’s a health hazard. My room was changed the next day , but nobody should be allowed to sleep in a room like that. Breakfast below average and greasy. I won’t be back
- Bruce (9/5): -
- Candice (8/5): Great Stay ! - Location . Safe parking. Staff friendly. Clean very comfortable I had asked for bedroom on the ground floor, which we got so that was great. Picture showed a queen or king bed on bookings but we got 2 singles. Little bit hard for me personally. But besides that it was great
- Marina (8/5): Satisfatório - Vanessa é muito simpática, super solicita em nos ajudar no que precisávamos! Quarto e café da manhã bons! Quarto não tem ar condicionado e eu não reparei nisso quando reservei. O entorno da casa é bem estranho, não da pra fazer nada andando. Achei até que não parecia muito seguro.
- White (8/5): Overall a good place to stay. Home away from home. - Everything was up to standard. Clean, comfortable and it have everything I needed. Beautiful decor throughout the house. It is definitely a really nice place to stay and the lady who takes care of the guests was an absolute dear. The location for me was not great. The area it is in is not a bad area, but its an old area and all the electric fencing around the property tells me that one needs to be vigilant if walking around the area. Also the room that I stayed in looks onto the street and people walking by can look straight into the room. Maybe a wooden fence or some shrubbery could give the room some privacy.
- Scott (7/5): -
- Vanessa Henke (9/5): - Ein schön eingerichtetes Gästehaus, sehr sauber. Parkplatz ist im Innenhof vorhanden. Das Frühstück ist einfach gehalten, aber ausreichend. Wir waren insgesamt zufrieden mit dem Aufenthalt.
- Roland (8/5): -
- Anita (10/5): Our go to when we are in PE. - Spotlessly clean and cotton linen Couch is not comfortable
- José Roberto (9/5): -
- Peter (10/5): I'll be back! - Feedback from Paolo Nothing
- Tracey (10/5): - Everything!
the breakfast was incredible every morning, the rooms comfortable and warm and Vanessa and the ladies are very incredibly kind and welcoming!
- selena (7/5): - Alloggio confortevole e, proprietaria attenta e super disponibile alle nostre esigenze. Colazione molto buona. Attenzione alla pulizia
- Wesley (10/5): -
- Rodriguez Crespo (7/5): Todo bien - Estaba bien, todo limpio y comodo para dormir. Habitaciones muy grandes y camas muy comodas. Menos mal que tienen manta electrica, ya que hace frío en invierno. Sería bueno que pusieran radiadores o algun otro sistema de calefacción aparte de la manta electrica, en invierno hace mucho frío. Tambien sería bueno que el desayuno fuera hasta mas tarde (al menos 10:00) porque sino es mucho madrugar. Por lo demas todo genial.
- Bryan (9/5): -
- Anita (10/5): Excellent Accommodation - Very clean and upmarket No comfortable lounge chair to relax in before bed
- Anita (10/5): Excellent Accommodation ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ - Perfect 😁 👌🏻 No breakfast available 😢
- Eunice (1/5): Think twice before you make a reservation at this guest house. - Nothing From check in staff to leaving was a bad experience. Black mould on the ceilings in the rooms, staff with bad attitude essentially when a problem arises. Staff complaining to us about being off two days after working 12 consecutive days. We drove 7 hours to get to this guest house, we arrived at 18:30. When we got there the host said they are only available until 19:00 for guests. She was complaining because she had to wait around for another guest. We booked a family room, but our children had to sleep in a room away from us. We left the guest house sooner to go to a different place. We have issues with our refunds. Bookings.com said we must sort it out with the owner, now I have a credit on my Bookings.com profile for less then we were supposed to get. This is unacceptable. I’m still waiting for this issue to be resolved from the owner and Bookings.com.
- Michael (9/5): Superb -
- Brussow (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gabriel (9/5): Superb -
- Marilynne (8/5): Very good - The staff and facilities were terrific. We were warned to be very careful going out at night and even during the day.
- Joan (9/5): Quality accommodation that is very convenient to St George's Hospital - Staff (Vanessa and Sekai) professional, friendly... room and shared areas immaculately clean and tastefully decorated
Secure off street parking. The only down side was the incessant barking of the neighbours dog in the afternoon which stopped early evening when owners got home.
- Ian (9/5): Superb -
- Geanne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dominique (8/5): Comfortable, clean, warm and friendly great staff. - Location was ideal for where we needed to be, it was also close to a variety of great restaurants. The staff especially the manager Vanessa was outstanding, and certainly went the extra mile. We were not all that happy in our first room, but Vanessa kindly heard our issues and moved us to a more suitable room
- Yuksel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sabrina (10/5): Exceptional - The room is beautiful and clean and the staff lovely. For me, it was the best Guesthouse I stayed in during my trip. I would appreciate some cheese and cold cuts for breakfast :-)
- Maishane (10/5): Amazing stay😊 - Everything and I mean everything..from the hosts to the atmosphere..it was a welcoming and warm atmosphere..loved my room,the crispy linen and electric blanket.minimal decor😍.the breakfast..can I just say the oats prepared by Sekai was one for the books💥..Vanessa thank you for everything 🎉 That I had to leave the next day😭😭

- Jonathan (9/5): A great overnight stay (en route to Addo Elephant park) Very clean, safe & secure. Couple of good restaurants just a - Clean, spacious, secure
- Mark (9/5): Pleasant two-night stay - Friendly welcome, secure parking, decent comfortable room, good breakfast with the bonus of an espresso machine. Walking distance from Nolio Italian bistro and other restaurants. A short drive to St George's Park for cricket. Looks like a rather characterless high-walled compound from the outside but don't be put off!
- Karin-mart (8/5): Central is not Clifton. However, the location next to the church was quaint. - The staff were very friendly.
The manager made the effort of getting something we wanted for breakfast for the next morning.
The inside rooms were spotless.
Loved the corner room on the first floor where we could open the window onto a park
Cars could park safely inside
The look and feel of the reception/ dining area is very pretty and inviting The outside room where we were initially accommodated was disappointing- it did not meet the 10/10 rating. It was tiny and musty. The rooms inside the house were lovely and explained the 10/10 rating.
No aircon.
- Edward (8/5): Enjoyable. -
- Ncube (6/5): Pleasant -
- Nelly (5/5): Passable -
- Gillian (8/5): Lovely stay ! - The bedroom was big and decorated so tastefully !

Breakfast was really good.
It was clean and tidy, staff were very helpful. Nothing
- Arpit (8/5): Very good -
- Nirvani (10/5): Exceptional -
- Beverley (9/5): Superb - Breakfast was delicious. Charmaine was good enough to give me a lift to a nearby destination when Uber drivers were not responding.
- Richard.becker (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly and accomodative staff. We arrived Late on Christmas Day and they made a plan and stayed behind intim 17:00!!

- Patrick (9/5): Superb - Everything you could want and super clean. Nothing really
- Bruce (9/5): Superb -
- Willie (10/5): I had a great stay highly recommend - Everything was in pristine condition, the rooms were moderate and well taken care off. The breakfast was well up to standard and options were provided for breakfast in the morning. The coffee machine was also a bonus and was really appreciated for people like me starting early in the morning. Coming from Paterson to the guest house the road did past a area that seemed to be a bit dangerous close to low income housing.
- Kevin (8/5): Our Go-To overnight stay each year. - We stay here every year when we arrive into PE. There are a few restaurants close by.
- Sizwe (8/5): Very good -

Good Restaurants and Bars are in walking distance. Nice host! And there are offering parking in the yard.
- Peter (9/5): Stay here - We loved the hostess . Room was very spacious and super clean . Near good restaurants Nothing
- Jacques (10/5): Excellent accommodation- my family loved it -
- Vicky (8/5): Good stay. - We enjoyed the bed and the hospitality of the owner. The room was a bit humid; we didn’t feel very safe when going out in the neighbourhood especially after the many warnings of the owner, however we felt very safe at the guest house itself.
- Benoit (8/5): Very good -
- Mayur (8/5): Very good - Vanessa is an excellent host and welcomed me into the property. The rooms are well sized and the accommodations are very comfortable. The property is well kept, modern and is definitely taken of. Secure parking behind a walled off property and automated gate. I was comfortable leaving my vehicle here without any worries. No complaints.
- Jonine (10/5): Wish we could stay longer - Decor, homey feeling
