Had a great over night stay here passing through on garden route. Friendly staff and chilled setting. Great braai at night of which we made good use. Room was good value. Really close to all amenities. Highly recommend.

Very clean and comfortable! There is a very welcoming feeling and everyone was very nice and accommodating and it was very cheep! only a block away from the grocery store and shops and they will organize any adventures you would like to take!
