Awesome business and leisure visit.

Fantastic hostess (and her mother) made our stay memorable. Avo Cottage is equipped with everything necessary for business as well as leisure travel. A major bonus is the safe, off-street parking and no load shedding!

Best and friendliest host.

We had a wonderful stay at Avo Cottage, thanks for being so friendly and helpful. Our furry child also enjoyed Avo Cottage.

Furry children are always welcome!
So happy that we got a “paws up”
Hopefully see you again soon!

Just an amazing stay. Thank you Tracey.

We felt immediately at home. What a wonderful place. Tracey, is an amazing host. She makes all very comfortable, and assisted with our retired geriatric Labrador in such a containing manner - I haven't experienced such unconditional hospitality.

Your words are so beautiful and kind!
It’s easy when I have guests like you and your son! I hope the dinosaur outfit went down well with the kids?
You are more than welcome back anytime and, of course, Rosy too!

Stil en rustig, maar die eenheid kort onderhoud.

Blyplekkie is kompak en oulik, heel veilig en stil met alles wat nodig is. Gasvrou is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Parkering is veilig in ’n toe garage. Die eenheid is netjies, maar is lanklaas behoorlik skoongemaak en kort dringend onderhoud. Die houtvensters en deure maak moeilik oop en toe, daar is geen diefwering nie en die vertrek kort ’n goeie laag verf binne (mure dop af) en die blinders in die badkamer is stukkend. Die stort kort ’n goeie skoonmaak en herseël. Buitesitplekkie is mooi en privaat, maar die stoele is nie meer stewig nie en het nuwe sitoppervlakke nodig. Nie slegte verblyf nie, maar dink dit kan verbeter word met bietjie aandag.

Quiet and peaceful, but the unit needs maintenance.

The accommodation is compact and cute, very safe and quiet with everything you need. The hostess is very friendly and helpful. Parking is safe in a closed garage. The unit is neat, but has not been properly cleaned in a long time and urgently needs maintenance. The wooden windows and doors are difficult to open and close, there is no burglar alarm and the room needs a good coat of paint inside (walls are peeling) and the blinds in the bathroom are broken. The shower needs a good cleaning and resealing. The outdoor seating area is nice and private, but the chairs are no longer sturdy and need new seating surfaces. Not a bad stay, but think it could be improved with a little attention.

I had a wonderful peaceful stay at the Avo Cottage.

The stay was great, I liked the fact that the room was cleaned every second day. The shower door opening is a bit tiny for a big guy like me, but everything else was great.

AVO Cottage 's response

Thank you for your kind words, Aaron! Next time you’ll have to use the bathroom with the three-headed open plan shower! It was there when we bought the house - very interesting.

Thanks Christiaan. I’m going to ensure that the cleaning staff are aware of this, and I will personally try to oversee that the cleaning is up to standards! (Please feel free to message me personally with specifics, so I can ensure that whatever concerns you had are resolved).
Please feel free to address things like this with me or your future hosts during your stay; it helps all parties to know and have a more comfortable stay!

Stay was very nice.

Stay was very nice but needs some upgrading. 1) Room has damp. 2) Bar fridge is too small and very uncomfortable. 3) 2-plate stove is tripping and dangerous; it needs a proper stove. 4) Bath and hand towels need to be replaced; they are very old and uncomfortable to use. 5) The room was not a 2-bedroom. It was a single room with a double bed and a sleeper couch.

AVO Cottage 's response

Thank you for your constructive feedback, Rodney. I only wish that during your stay, when asked if you were comfortable or needed anything, you would have informed me of the points you mentioned above. I always find feedback helpful as it will not only provide more insight for me but improve the comfort of your stay.

The points you mention could have easily been addressed and sorted during your stay, rather than reading it as a review afterwards and not having the opportunity to have made your stay even better.

I hope you stay with us again and see if we can get an A+

Comfortable stay.

We found the place easily. The parking was secure and under cover, a big plus as the day was quite hot. The main room is nicely laid out and the bed was firm but soft, just right for us. We did not prepare any meals, but the kitchen looked adequate for a short stay. We did make tea and coffee, and they supplied enough tea and coffee to have with rusks. They even had rooibos tea. We found the duvet too hot and asked for a top sheet, and it was supplied. The bathroom was great, although the shower cubicle is a bit small (about 0.75 x 0.75 metres). The area is nice and quiet.

Thank you so much for your feedback. It is always good to hear from guests about their stay and your information what insightful and appreciated - especially highlighting the positive aspects of our accommodation! Hope you stay with us again soon.
