Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Everything was perfect. The only thing the property needs to do is to invest some money to get an electrity generator for the lights and WiFi. Otherwise, I really enjoyed my time the property. Special thanks for George, Albert, and the people running the guest house. I definitely recommend it. On the other hand, I believe that having a car is a necessity to move around the city and its surrounding.

Fantastic stay, Alfred is a gem. The property is neat and clean and you feel safe. Once those gates close, you are in your own safe space, peaceful after a long day.

I liked the unique styles of each of the rooms. Had very comfortable beds and I felt safe. Albert was an essential for helping out with anything we needed. Cleaners were friendly and happy to help out and we had an enjoyable 3 week stay. I didn't like loadshedding and it may be helpful if the Minimalist invested in solar panels for visitors who are not used to loadshedding :-)
