“Comfortable guesthouse in a great location, with good size rooms and friendly service”
Situated in a quite suburb in Mthatha South, this guest house is close to the town centre and shops. Received with a warm and friendly welcome by receptionist Nosictelo Nono and the checking in and out was smooth and effortless. The room is well equipped, large bathroom, very comfy bed and direct access to a small patio, the garden and a sparkling blue pool. Secure parking on site.

To be honest, I didn't expect such a clean and beautiful guesthouse in Mthatha. The staff was very friendly and always willing to assist. I am definitely returning the next time I have a business to do in Mthatha.

“Other than the gate story we loved everything about their place, it is well taken care of with a ver”
The bnb was a little bit far from the place I had to travel +-30 km n it's in the innermost of Southern wood but it is a very nice place. Nice rooms with backup, electric blankets n aircon. I really love the place
