Dear Irene, Thank you for the comfortable night we could spend in your guest house. The rooms were comfortable and nice and the breakfast was delicious, especially the "breakfast pizza" you made for us. So we started our trip into Krüger Park as comfortable as possible.

Service experienced: Breakfast was not up-to standard most of the days, (i.e. toast and tea/coffee) because of pre-arranged meetings that host need to attend. The rooms were spacious, but not serviced properly on a daily basis. Location is good, and the garden is nice, only a splash pool, so hardly big enough for a group of 10 - 12 people.

Irene is friendly. Service was good. Room was perfect. Breakfast was unique and fun. It was a pleasant stay and felt like home away from home. The breakfast was a highlight for me as it allowed me to explore different tastes and dishes. The snacks in the fridge were a very nice touch and something I haven't seen at other bed and breakfasts ive been to.

We only stayed one night and were given a very large room, big comfortable bed and big bathroom. Very clean. Our stay was unfortunately too short. The guesthouse has a beautiful garden, even with a small pool. However it was already too cold to swim. The breakfast was delicious with a different kind of "eggs, bacon, tomato and so on" - very tasty indeed. Would come back any time - very friendly reception. Only one small recommendation - to make the bathroom more cozy and keep the feet from getting cold, a carpet or more floor mats would do wonders. Thanks for a nice stay!

We wish we would have had more time and could have stayed longer in this charming, lovely guesthouse with its beautiful garden. We really enjoyed our stay there. The guesthouse is in a quiet area but still not too far from the shops. It had such a nice atmosphere and you feel just happy to be there. The room was awesome and we were treated to the most divine breakfast. We felt so welcome and well looked after. The next time we need to plan more time in Pretoria. Veronika and Regina
