Nutmeg Guesthouse 's response
Thank you for the constructive feedback, Aimee. We are in the process of finalising inventories for each room, which will enable us to keep tighter control on items in the rooms that sometimes get moved between rooms without our knowledge. Regular checking should help.

The apartment was clean, tidy and well equipped. The beautiful gardens create a relaxed atmosphere. Furthermore, the DStv, with all the channels, is a plus. The owner and staff are always friendly and willing to help.

Safe, easy to get, reasonable value for money.
Not all the rooms look like the picture advertised. The room our friends stayed in needs an upgrade. We also had to ask for toilet paper every morning which was a bit annoying. The toilet paper was also extremely poor quality, after the second day we instead bought our own to use. The service was friendly. What did confuse us was that on arrival we were told that breakfast was an extra R90 pp, maybe we misunderstood, but we were under the impression on booking that it was included in the price of the room, but about the overall it wasn't bad value for money.

Neat, but basic.
The reception was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bathroom was very neat, but the kitchenware was very limited. No longevity milk, just Cremora. Communal gas stove outside the rooms, but no matches in the room. Less value for money compared to other places we have stayed elsewhere in the country at a similar price.

Die plek was regtig nie skoon nie en die linne, lakens en komberse was baie oud en ek het nie gemaklik gevoel om daaronder te slaap nie.

Translate to English.
The place was really not clean and the linen, sheets and blankets were very old and I didn't feel comfortable sleeping under them.
The impression created in the photos is that it is an old English Manor House. Meanwhile, it compares well with a cheap old boarding house. The cutlery is odd and completely inadequate to pass as self-catering. I could barely heat up my takeaway and washed all the utensils before eating from them. Not recommended at all for a good night's sleep.

We were looking for relatively pleasant, conveniently located and affordable overnight accommodation not too far from Durban and Nutmeg Guesthouse is exactly what we were looking for.
It's not fancy or impressive, but it's value for money. Reception and accommodation: Very friendly, comfortable and pleasant. Breakfast the next morning: Delicious and value for money! Dinner in 'The Black Olive' (so recommended by the guest house): Definitely worth it! Location: Easy to get to from the N3. Recommendations: (1) The coffee mugs and glasses, of different sizes, which do not fit together, definitely need an upgrade. (2) Two of our towels were in a particularly battered condition and need to be replaced. (3) One senior member of our company walks with a 'roller'. Although there was a path for him, the path's gate was locked after dinner and we couldn't get the lock at reception, which was already locked by then.

Old-world English house, friendly host and delicious breakfast.
We were 3 people who booked a self-catering unit for 3-5. Breakfast is extra, but you'll pay more for less food in town. Other guests were also very friendly. In summertime the swimming pool will be great. Self-catering for light meals with a fridge and basin, but it's no hotel kitchen. It's perfect for people on business in town. The warm water is really warm and there's proper shower facilities. Not the type of shower you have to run around in to get wet.

Acceptable overnight accommodation.
Door handle remains in your hand after you have closed the door - room 2. Already fixed with silicon. The non-matching crockery isn't pretty. We are alos in the hospitality industry and it will do a lot to get uniform crockery. Two plates different types and sizes. Old, hard towels. Linen and mattress same story. The place is quiet old. We stayed two nights and it was fine. No complaints about friendly owner. I didn't like the fact that the staff entered our room everytime we left. I booby-trapped the closet door to know if they opened it, no reason for it, they should tell the staff to not snoop around in the guests' stuff. There was nothing to do late afternoon after we lefte for the wedding, so they went into our room and arranged my shoes. Why? I've got a good mind to stick a piece of paper on the door instructing them to stay out, because it wasn't necessary. Just befor we left they asked us what we wanted to drink, we requested coffee and sugar since there weren't any tea. There never was any tea but it didn't bother me because I don't take my tea with powdered milk, but I also don't drink coffee. They brought the basket and we had to help ourselved and then they still entered the room when we left. Why? I didn't appreciate it at all. Next time I will bring my own lock so they can respect my privacy. Thanks.
