Fantastic guest house with amazing staff, tasty home cooked breakfast and in a convenient location.”

The beds were clean and comfortable. Great bathrooms and amenities. The staff were genuine, eager to be of assistance and very helpful, fun and friendly. The venue is right in the heart of hip vibing Melville, Johannesburg. Lovely rustic garden to relax and base yourself for exploring Joburg. The Breakfasts are honest home cooked deliciousness. Definitely my new first choice when staying in town for a while.

Wonderful staff and accomodations and a good vibe all around”

My niece and I had a delightful stay and Melusi and Patricia were terrific. Breakfast was delicious and Patricia was so sweet and always smiled her beautiful smile. Melusi was a great communicator and scheduled our shuttles and tour around the city for us. He was a pleasure to get to know and helpful in answering our questions. Very patient. Our room was perfect and even when the city had a water pipe repair, Melusi brought us water to use. The room was clean and tidy with all our amenities that we needed while staying there. Tons of restaurants to choose from just around the corner and never felt unsafe or concerned about being women walking around town. A wonderful vibe.

Perfect location”

The location of this place couldnt possibly be any better. It is on the corner of two major popular streets. Food, bars, shops of all kinds are up and down these two streets. If your. In the mood for a late night out this is the perfect place for there are lounges and bars linned up. After you can safely walk back to your guesthouse.. The shops and restaurant make a nice get away for the family and the garden at this place wgould make you want to move in. I fully recommend this place. Book in advance for lower prices as this place like many others increase in price as you book closer to the date you want.

Excellent guesthouse with great staff and a lovely breakfast”

Stayed two nights in a luxury double room. Everything about the stay was great - the location, the staff, the breakfast. The only small downside was the room was a bit chilly and the heaters that are installed are not very effective. Most of the year this would not be an issue but we did visit in winter so an extra blanket on the bed solved it! I would recommend this guesthouse.
