Great stay

This was a quick stop to our Great White Diving excursion! The place was perfect, big kitchen, big fridge, big everything. The apartment has a place to good braai and heated beds when it is cold. There is a tube and shower. Hot water is great. The area is safe and nice. Few good restaurants around the area, but we preferred to eat in since it was so nice. Check in was great, there is a gated entrance where you can leave the car. Highly recommended!

A good place to stay in.

The place was good. The lady there was quick to respond when called in for assistance. The only issue we had a problem with was WiFi that kept disappearing.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Manager was very accommodating in changing our room from on the street location to a nearby quieter sister property with ocean views. Chantal even moved our luggage for us when we were out on a whale watching cruise. The interior courtyard rooms at the Town Lodge would be preferable but one was not available on our arrival. In any case the properties were clean and well equipped with good restaurants within walking distance. Recommend the Blue Goose, advance booking required.

Établissement spacieux mais

Chambre très spacieuse toute équipé. Cependant l'établissement est un peu à deux vitesses. Quatre chambres sont très bien placé et donne sur le parking sécurisé avec petit coin pour se poser à l'extérieur. Deux chambres donne directement sur la rue. Elles sont fermés par des portes fenêtres à vitrage simple et cette porte donne directement sur la rue. Ces chambres ne sont donc pas du tout sécurisé ce qui est 'limite" en afrique du sud.

Excelente!

Quarto super espaçoso, com cozinha completa, cama super confortável. Do outro lado da rua, na esquina, há uma pizzaria muito boa também. Única reclamação que eu teria é que o quarto é bem frio no inverno, praticamente sem sistema de aquecimento (há uma placa de metal na parede para aquecer o quarto, mas não dá conta nem de começar), mas pelo menos é incluído um cobertor elétrico na cama, então pra dormir você não passa frio.
