The host is very nice and hospitable, and the room is very big. You can choose your own breakfast in the hotel and the boss can make it first. The Omlet made by the proprietress and the oatmeal baked by herself are very, very delicious.

Emsie and Carl made me feel welcome and were there to help if needed. . Room spacious, clean, comfortable and well equipped with kettle, fridge and microwave. Large shower. Private balconies with lovely view. Good breakfasts and choices. Carl also happy to act as driver and tour guide. Good base for my stay.

Karel and Emsie where the ultimate hosts. Nothing was a problem for them. It was a real home from home experience and the 1st time I used a "disabled room" that was 100% disabled friendly from being able to park right in front of your room door to lights that come on automatically in the bathroom. Fantastic! The room was very neat and tidy and has everything you need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The breakfast selection is also absolutely amazing and very yummy! I can only but highly recommend both Karel and Emsie and their wonderful guest house. Butch Coetzee, BNI Eastern Cape

Wow, i really enjoyed my stay. Carl and Emsie are so friendly and helpful. From collecting us from the airport to the absolutely delicious food that Emsie makes. The rooms are lovely, comfortable and clean. It is exactly like the photos advertised. If you are looking for affordable accommodation with an unforgettable stay, then this place is it. Emsie makes the best breakfast hands down.
