Fantastic!
We received good service from the start. The rooms were equipped with everything we could need during our stay. Everything was clean and tidy. Gene went out of her way to get a room ready for us as we wanted to move in earlier to get ready for a function. She also accommodated our trailer and made sure it was parked safely. The guest house's manager was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay there again!

Would recommend genius nest.
We would recommend Genie's Nest. We had to drop off our stuff earlier with a wedding we had nearby and the host didn't have a problem with that. They were still cleaning our place. We can't fault the place at all. I might just want to bring to your attention that one can see right through the white curtains when the light is on or off in the evening. We changed in the bathroom. Toilet seat was loose, maybe just tightened. There was also a group of young visitors sitting and hanging out right by the pool, which we could hear until late. Our room was by the pool. Not owner's fault, but maybe look at the time to allow a certain time if you want to visit the pool. When they went to sleep everything was peaceful. Thank you for allowing us to sleep there and feel safe.

Very satisfied.
I booked the place for my parents who had to go to Steve Biko. They were very satisfied with the cleanliness and service. The cleaning lady was so helpful and friendly. We just want to thank her once again. The location is also very close to shops and the hospital. They were also very accommodating and we really appreciated knowing that you are dealing with people of heart. Thanks also to the website for the prompt service.

Lovely clean equipped unit.
Had a great stay, the unit is clean and well equipped with everything you need. Lovely clean swimming pool with well equipped outdoor braai area. Only point that could be improved is that the fridge was not switched on before our arrival, so we could not immediately keep our perishable food cold.

Lovely, clean and very comfortable.
We were looking for overnight accommodation for a function we attended in Pretoria. Genie's Nest met all our requirements and quite at a very good price. Although we did not spend much time at the accommodation, the time there was very comfortable. The rooms are very tastefully equipped with everything you could want. Very clean and tidy. Rooms 2, 3, 4 overlook the pool where no. 1 is a little "off" on the side, but overall, very, very nice.

Neat, clean and accessible.
We were pleasantly surprised with our stay at Genies Nest, especially given the affordability of the accommodation. I would suggest that they update their contact details on Google as we had the wrong number and had trouble getting hold of them. Parking was a challenge as we traveled with a pram (if accommodation is fully booked there won't be enough parking). Top accommodation and service, nonetheless!

Genie's Nest 1.
Very tidy, large rooms and comfortable, safe, good location with cutlery, fridge, microwave and double bed. Only downside is no internet during "load shedding", so additional arrangements had to be made to be able to work in another location during the 2 hours. Internet quality is also quite poor and better equipment and a stronger/better Wi-Fi signal would have been ideal.

No aircon, no security gate at room.
The braai facilities are very poor, braais are rusted through, no braai tongs, no bowls to marinate meat. Room very hot, only a fan on the floor, due to no security door, the door cannot be left open during loadshedding. Towels were never changed. Sink in kitchen is very small. No poison for ants. Had to ask for toilet paper. No, who wouldn't go home there again.

BAie dankie vir u terugvoer.
So jammer dat daar nie "aircon" is nie. Definitief sal die prys heelwat meer moes wees vir eenheid met "aircon"
Jammer dat ons plekkie nie geskik was vir u nie.
Omdat dit nie 'n permanente eenheid is nie, het ons nog nooit klagtes gehad oor die klein wasbak, dis 'n oornag plekkie, so volgende keer moet u 'n woonstel aanvra.
So jammer u moes vir toiletpapier vra.
Miere is maar hierdie tyd van die jaar 'n probleem, en ons spuit definitief, maar kan definitief nie gif in die kamer los nie.
Hoop u kry regtig baie beter geriewe volgende keer, en weereens jammer vir u slegte ervaring by ons.

Access door to unit lock was worked out and could not lock. Overall fair for the price.
The position was well located for the purpose of our trip. The unit was fair. The generator for load shedding was in poor condition (smoky badly and black soot blown over the vehicles). It also could not meet the building's needs and shut down after 55 min in 4 hours of load shedding. The parking was unfortunately very limited and only suitable for small vehicles. Fortuners, double cab vans are going to have problems.

Ek is so jammer dat u so slegte ervaring gehad het. Ja, beurtkrag is maar oor die hele Suid Afrika, so ons almal is gedompel in dieselfde situasie.
Indien die generator gebreek het tydens die beurtkrag, is dit regtig nie met opset gedoen, maar bloot iets buite ons beheer.
Parkering is nie 'n probleem as daar net reg parkeer word.
Weereens jammer en hoop u kan 'n 5 ster verblyf kry volgende keer.

We were late. We let the hostess know, she arranged for us to open up, the place was clean, tidy, coffee, tea, powdered milk in the kettle meant a lot to us. A clean, hot shower. Good bed and a good night's rest. In the morning, ehk asked for help with his car and in no time our guest wife sent someone. Thank you very much for the extra, we were truly blessed with the extra mile. Genie's Nest I would recommend to any visitor, there is style here.

Neat, comfortable pocket-sized accommodation.
The room was very well appointed, with little extra details such as color changing cups with Genie's Nest's emblem on them. The bedding is slightly lower quality than standard hotel linen, but it was white and clean and warm enough for a cold winter's night. The parking is restrictively small and less suitable for large vehicles. Overall a comfortable stay.
