Great location, friendly staff. Lovely room.

Unfortunately, we had a bad experience. The tenant who stayed in the house locked the communal kitchen when he left in the morning. We had no access to the kitchen and we had a cycling race on.

Unfortunately, it was not a pleasant stay and I will definitely not go back or recommend it to anybody.

Just because they mention a fan/aircon, doesn't mean it works. The place was very hot and the door/windows weren't positioned to support a draft. I reported it when we arrived, the next afternoon I was still waiting for feedback, thus they didn't attend to my inquiry nor did they try to assist. The same with the wifi and the TV channels. It felt like the place had been patched every time something broke. The bathroom and toilet had broken tiles and the toilet was patched with glue. Bunk bed for the kids was broken, thus not safe for kids.

Baie aangename tyd.

Vriendelike en hulpvaardige personeel. Swembad - baie lekker in die hitte. Badkamer het 'n paar goed wat bietjie aandag kort, maar eienaar het gesê sy maak dadelik werk daarvan.

Sentraal geleë vir vinnige toegang tot meeste gebiede in Durban Noord, Umhlanga en Ballito.

Vriendelike personeel, kamer het voldoen aan ons behoefte vir net slaapplek. Die algehele onderhoud van die gastehuis het ongelukkig aandag nodig en stem nie ooreen met die foto's nie. Sal dit ongelukkig nie kan aanbeveel vir 'n langdurige verblyf nie.

Centrally located for quick access to most areas in Durban North, Umhlanga and Ballito.

Friendly staff, room met our need for just a place to sleep. The overall maintenance of the guest house unfortunately needs attention and does not match the photos. Unfortunately would not be able to recommend it for an extended stay.

Netjies en gerieflik.

Kamers en fasiliteite is baie netjies, alhoewel van die dienste/fasiliteite wat geadverteer word is nie in plek nie en het beperkinge wat nie aangedui word op webtuiste nie (bv. geen swembad, geen pendeldiens, Wi-Fi is nie gratis en net beskikbaar sekere tye). Personeel was effens traag om te help met foutiewe deursleutel en versoek vir pendeldiens.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Neat and comfortable.

Rooms and facilities are very clean, although some of the services/facilities advertised are not in place and have limitations that are not indicated on the website (e.g. no pool, no shuttle service, Wi-Fi is not free and only available certain times). Staff was a bit slow to help with faulty door key and request for shuttle service.

Goeiedag Mevrou,

Ek is bly dat Mevrou ons huis netjies gevind het. Ek was nie bewus van die sleutels of die pendeldiens nie. Ek vra om verskoning en sal dit onmiddellik met my personeel opneem.

Dankie

'n Aangename ondervinding en baie lekker gebly.

Dit was plesierig, die kamer was skoon en die hulp was vriendelik. Ons het ook die ontbyt terdeë geniet en sal definitief terugkeer Flintstones toe. Dit was 'n "home away from home" ondervinding.

Die huis is oud en het verseker verbeterings nodig.

Die huis is op hoek van 'n baie besige straat. Nie goeie uitsig vir aankomende verkeer nie. Flintstones het potensiaal maar het verbetering nodig aan gebou. Gordyne en beddegoed is oud. Ontbyt was goed.

The place and rooms are nice, but we had some issues.

The place and the rooms were nice. We received great service from the ladies. But we had issues with one of the rooms (T7) which was not prepared for the guest that came on a Saturday as they complained about the accumulation of dust and the shower that was broken (the guesthouse managed to fix). One if the aircons (U7) did not produce hot air. It was cold that evening. We had safe parking and we had a fabulous breakfast. Thank you to the ladies.

Baie sentraal naby winkels en stad.

Die gastehuis is baie gesellig met lugversorging en altyd warm water. Pick'nPay is net om die draai, KFC en Chicken Licken oorkant die pad en 'n apteek, vulstasie en wassery. Viginia-lughawe is sowat 10 kilometer daarvandaan met 'n gesellige kuierplek waar mens kan kyk hoe die vliegtuie inkom om te land en op te styg ...

The guest house is very cozy with air conditioning and always hot water. Pick'nPay is just around the corner, KFC and Chicken Licken across the road and a pharmacy, gas station and laundry. Viginia Airport is about 10 kilometers away with a cozy hangout where you can watch the planes come in to land and take off...

Teleurstellend!

Die foto's weerspieël definitief nie die huidige stand van sake nie. Daar was geen swembad nie, die tuin is nie watwonders nie en daar was bourommel orals te sien. Die plek kort aandag met baie dinge wat net sleg lyk en is. 'n Goeie afstof kan ook goed wees. Geen prop in die badkamer se wasbak nie en die beligting is baie swak. Diens was ook nie baie vriendelik nie en ontbyt was smaakloos en vaal.

Disappointing!

The photos definitely do not reflect the current state of affairs. There was no swimming pool, the garden is not amazing and there was construction debris everywhere. The place needs attention with many things that just look and are bad. A good duster can also be good. No plug in the bathroom sink and the lighting is very poor. Service was also not very friendly and breakfast was tasteless and bland.
