I like that they got in touch prior to arrival to ensure they were ready when I got there. They had upgraded me since there was a larger room available which I thought was very kind. They even loaned me a jacket when they saw I wasn’t quite prepared for the weather that greeted me. Overall, they really wanted to make sure it was a nice visit. It was maybe 4 blocks to the main road where the wine tram leaves from and there are loads of restaurants and a woolworths (where I got breakfast goodies and snacks. There were also some nice touristy shops if you want to get anything to bring home. An easy walk to get to all these things.

Nice stay

Beautiful location. Spacious accommodation. Friendly staff. Bar fridge a bit noisy. Relatively early check-out (10-10h30) a bit disruptive

Clean and comfortable

Nice room. Good light, ventilation and privacy. Very comfortable bed and linens. Spacious bathroom with large shower and sink counter. Helpful owners on site. Our unit, #3, had a large covered front patio with comfortable sofa and table. An easy 600m walk to the center (Huguenot street). Minor faults: the bathroom fan comes on with the light and is quite loud. The small counter for making tea/coffee is too small. Not Eight on Tuin's fault: While traffic on the side streets into the center is very light, you have to walk in the street. Strange that such a beautiful town has no sidewalks. Bonus: they provide a french press, ground coffee from Terbodore roasters, and even stock a bit of milk in the fridge!
