Perfect overnight stay for travelers with dogs.
The yard is nice and big for dogs and the house is spotless and tidy. The owners are very friendly and helpful and accommodated us despite our late arrival. I'm not sure about the safety in the area and there were loud Friday night walks in the neighborhood, but we had big dogs with us so didn't feel unsafe. I would recommend this place to people traveling with dogs.

Lucky just for one night.
First impressions it is very big, but als is very old. Picture frame in living room looking down. Locks on doors are broken, I see in previous reviews this was also mentioned. There was limited power on the prepaid meter of 40 units. We wanted to barbecue, and the convenience of the barbecue under cover was nice, until it started to boil. It leaked into the roof, so all the meat and fire got wet. The two ovens are there, but only the lower one works, and it almost burned everything! The light in the bathroom that has a bath has a poor connection and went off all of a sudden. My husband, who is a qualified electrician, saw that the light was poorly wired, which is a real concern. Furthermore, there are two suggestions that the owners can look into: carport, because it was raining, but luckily not hailing. The master bedroom's bathroom is big enough for a bath, please put one in. The candles provided for shedding are definitely not sufficient. I see the place is currently advertised for R1800 per day, and I really think the owners need to look at making the place adequate for people using the place in the future. For that price you expect quality. The place needs a little more attention.

Parking very steep, but no problem for experienced driver. People were very helpful in storing my trailer in an alternate location for the evening (lock up garage) as it is not possible on steep inclines. The place is not modern and new, but everything we needed was there and everything worked. The place is neat and clean.

Very neat and clean. Old house but perfect for one night stay.
We were very pleased with Alhoa. Melody and her husband were very friendly and helpful. The house was really neat and clean. The parents' house, furniture etc. may not be acceptable to everyone, but for our family of 6 it was certainly sufficient as an overnight stop back to Jhb. I think for the price we paid it was worth every penny.
