Baie netjies, skoon en aangenaam!

Die gasvrou is baie vriendelik. Die kamer was perfek skoon en netjies en daar is alles wat 'n mens nodig gehad het, selfs 'n strykplank en -yster, wat min gastehuise bied! Ons sal beslis weer daar oorslaap.

Very neat, clean and pleasant!

The hostess is very friendly. The room was perfectly clean and neat and there is everything you need, even an iron and ironing board, and not many guesthouses offer that! We will definitely stay there again.

Clean room but the self-catering aspect of the accommodation seems forced

Lovely spacious bathroom and very clean room. Was expecting a separate kitchen, but kitchen appliances are in the same room. Self-catering aspect of the room seems forced and accommodation seems more like student accommodation rather than for tourists. Though the whole room was very clean, there were personal items like photos, folders and papers strewn across the cupboard floor.

Perfect place for accomodation when you are in Port Elizabeth

Thank you once again for everything; you helped me with everything I needed! Since I've never been to Port Elizabeth before it was highly appreciated. I received a very warm welcome which was wonderful. Until we meet again, God bless.

Bumpy

I was happy from my arrival day till the morning of my departure day, my happiness ended when I was told to stay outside on a cold, dusty and highly windy day in PE while waiting for my pick up taxi.
