Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Die Gemeinschaftsterrasse mit Ausblick in die Weinberge war toll. Es gab Liegen und Sitzgruppen. Wir hatten die Unterkunft mit zwei Schlafzimmern gebucht und waren allein. Das war gut, denn andernfalls wäre es etwas eng auf der Terrasse geworden. Alles wirkt ziemlich beengt. Wie oft in Südafrikanischen B & Bs waren die Zimmer auch hier etwas vollgestellt und deshalb eng. Das Frühstück war recht gut, dier Service nett und aufmerksam. Insgesamt haben wir für den Preis und in Anbetracht der guten Bewertungen mehr erwartet.
