Good place to stay, super safe and not too far from the key landscapes, shout out to a certain Quennel Tshabadira, made sure we felt welcomed. There is room for improvement with bedding, the sheets are old

Very generous, caring and kind lady in Room 11. Clean kitchen and bathroom. Beautiful art work & photos everywhere. Only issue is WIFI problem. Every 5 minutes I had to login with different usernames.

I spent the night here before an international flight. I found the staff and other guests friendly and respectful of my privacy.The distance was a bit expensive using an Uber but since it was during the peak of the taxi strike, I didn't struggle for transport and it was close enough to Observatory to go grocery and thrift shopping.I was also given the option of transport by the lodge should I struggle to get transport to the airport.Comfortable, quiet lodgings with hot shower.
