Breakfast very poor cheap sliced pan no other bread. Processed cheese wrapped we call them easy singles at home. Fruit an insult tinned peaches and tinned pineapple and portion so small in a glass. Dogs poo outside our bedroom in the morning there are two dogs there one of them jumped into bed beside our son in his room. Body lotion watered down. Our first night in SA and we found it v disappointing

Convenient for NMMU

We selected this hotel because it is very close to NMMU where we attended a function. The booking through Trivago was easy and worked well. We were welcomed when we arrived and shown to our room. The hotel is in a delightful setting with a well maintained garden. Parking was secure and we had our own remote control for the gate. There was a full and delicious breakfast served with a smile.

5 Sterne fĂŒr ein Hotel, an dem man warmherzig empfangen und einzigartig verwöhnt wird. Alida und Mathias haben ihre Leidenschaft zum Beruf gemacht. Wer familiĂ€re AtmosphĂ€re mag, ist hier goldrichtig. Liebevoll gestaltete, große Zimmer. Top Hygiene, fantastisches englisches FrĂŒhstĂŒck frisch nach Wunsch zubereitet. Am Pool wurden wir mit einem guten GlĂ€schen Wein verwöhnt. Wer ein Souvenir fĂŒr die lieben Daheimgebliebenen oder sich selbst sucht, wirft einen Blick auf Mathias selbst entworfene Schmuckkollektion. Außergewöhnlich, zu gĂŒnstigen Preisen. Wir lieben dieses Guesthouse und freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen.

Lugar bonito, decorado com bom gosto e capricho. Påtio com privacidade. Camas muito confortåveis, quarto amplo, pequena cozinha pratica e funcional. Café da manhã muito gostoso, o suficiente. Atendimento pelos próprios donos, aliås, é uma casa que foi transformada em "pousada". Tudo muito organizado e limpo. Destaque para a simpatia dos donos e atendimento. Adoramos. Pela localização precisa de carro pra se locomover pela cidade.

En fin oas i Port Elisabeth

Vi kom med bil och blev mycket förtjusta i Bayside guest house. En helt fantastisk liten oas, med rena frÀscha rum, alla egna ingÄngar i smÄ egna hus. En fin liten pool, bra parkering, gÄngavstÄnd till strandpromenad, god frukost, vÀnlig personal. Personligt bemötande.

La camera era molto pulita, la colazione abbondante, la posizione molto comoda. Le idee della padrona di casa sulla situazione politica del Sudafrica non ci sono sembrate molto condivisibili...
