Unhappy customers 😑
This is definitely not a 4 stars hotel. It must be a 2 stars boutique homestay instead. Room is too small for 2 king bed. Bathroom is too small with old shower stall. Old furniture and squeaking wood floor. Felt unwelcome by the management. Definitely not happy stay and not recommend to others.

8/10 Very good

Great location. Very safe with security monitoring the neighborhood. Cozy place. Could do with a bit of a vacuum since we saw dust balls in a few places. The house keeper was very friendly and the cook/food was decent. no power backup so electricity went out with the load shedding.

Endroit très calme. Très bien située pour les restaurants et pour les visites de Johannesburg (si vous prenez un Uber cela ne vous en coûtera que 4-5€).

Pragmatic guesthouse in a nice environment. Check-in Service had some potential and our feedback was taken very serious by the management. Quite surroundings.

A quiet harbour in a puzzling city
It was our first time in Johannesburg. The owner was very helpful, always ready to do us a favour (he called Uber a few times for our trips around the city, for taxis are very hard to find in Joburg, unless you want to take the collective ones, which for us appeared a bit complicated). The area is very quiet and nice, 7th street (and only 7th street!) is animated at night, with agreeable restaurants and bars. The personnel is great!

Fantastic stay.
We were initially booked in for 3 nights but enjoyed it so much that we ended up staying for 7. The guesthouse is lovely and the manager, Lizelle, could not have been more helpful. The local area is safe and packed with great restaurants and bars.

Gem of a family run 'hotel' in fantastic location!
I researched for somewhere in Johannesburg that my daughter and I could stay and meet local people and safely walk in the street - we were not disappointed! The guesthouse is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac and shares a locked stepped passageway up to the main street of Melville, where there is a range of cafes, restaurants and shops, especially the Lucky Bean, which we felt safe visiting for our supper after dark. Deidre couldn't do enough to assist us and make our stay a happy one, she also helped me to check in online for our onward travels. Liz, the proprietor, was always on hand prior to arrival, to answer questions associated with our stay. The guesthouse has a gem of a driver, Mike, to meet you from the Airport and take you on tours - he told us he had even accompanied someone up to the Victoria Falls via Botswana! He took us to some caves 'The Cradle of Mankind' and another excursion we enjoyed, when Mike wasn't free, was visiting Soweto and the Apartheid Museum, etc My daughter was delighted that we were greeted, in our room, by balloons and a lovely (and delicious) cake for her birthday on arrival! We stayed only two nights and wish we had found that there was so much to do prior to booking travel, as we would have stayed longer!

Excellent stay!
Only stayed one night in transit, but stay was excellent and certainly would return! Very early departure but the owner made sure we had a cooked to order hot full breakfast with eggs,bacon, yogurt,etc to send us off. Location was excellent, close to many restaurants and shops. Would highly recommend!

poor wifi
no geral gostei do hotel. Pessoal bastante atencioso e simpático, quarto confortável, boa localização embora necessite de caro (taxi,uber) para se locomover. O que pecou foi realmente a qualidade do wifi, muito instável e um dia não consegui utilizar.

B&B pour ceux qui recherchent un séjour calme
Séjour agréable malgré le fait qu'il faille toujours prendre des taxis pour se déplacer en ville ou vers les sites à visiter. La petite piscine n'est pas réellement utilisable car elle ne dispose pas d'une échelle ou de marches d'accès! Les petits déjeuners sont corrects, sans plus. La propriétaire est à l'écoute de nos besoins et très serviable.
