Thank you for your review from your staff, we really appreciate that the most important aspects of a guest house were met and noted by them and we do hope we also made them welcome and at home. These are part of our 5 pillars. Regards, Gail.

Host didn't leave key for us as arranged, had to make a few phone calls after hours to get access to the unit.
The John Bauer Pottery Studio 's response
Dear Rinie, I am so sorry about the communication issue on our side and that you had to wait 10 min for me to get there after you called. We do contact all guests prior to them arriving so that that have my cell number to call for any issues so they can be speedily resolved.
All our rooms are provided with battery backup bulbs so that they have light during load shedding. Our Wi-Fi has back up and has never been down, even in 4 hour load shedding we have been on line and our geysers stay hot. We are looking at installing a gas hob for cooking as load shedding looks to increase, we do try to be proactive to keep our guests comfortable. I can recommend chatting to your host for future stays as all of us, in this industry, will go out of our way to resolve any problems and make sure you are comfortable. We are generally known for our restful stay but while you were here we did have a young couple celebrating a birthday rather noisy on the one morning, this is not a norm and we allowed a bit of celebrating before asking them to tone it down, perhaps I should have closed it down straight away - a difficult call for a host, as you want to try and keep everyone happy. We handle each situation on its own merits depending on time of day etc. Again if any other guests advise a problem then we close it down straight away. Our bathrooms are a standard en-suite format but we will certainly take a look and see what we can do to make it more use friendly.
I really appreciate the time you have taken to do a review, guest experiences are very important and we will be taking your suggestions to heart and seeing how we can improve the overall experience. Regards. Gail

The guest house was well located for me, well laid out, very clean and tidy. The staff were also helpful and friendly. Just remember not to forget to arrange for parking.

Charming, artsy accommodation, super central location.
Safe accommodation in a comfortable artist's house, close to various restaurants. Lovely morning coffee in a peaceful garden with the birds singing in the background and a beautiful mountain view.

It's fine, but wouldn't stay there again.
The fan in our bedroom did not work. Fresh milk for coffee was nice.

Clean and comfortable. Quiet neighborhood.
Compared to another place in Claremont where I stayed for the whole week for almost the same price, here I had no television with DStv. There were also no biscuits, yogurt or muesli on offer, which can make a stay in a strange place that much more pleasant. John Bauer's pottery studio was close to my office in Claremont which I was very happy about.

Neat and close to everything.
The lady who helped us was very friendly and helpful on the phone. We just had a problem with washing our coffee cups. The only place to wash it is the small sink in the bathroom. My cup couldn't fit in there. There was also only one roll of toilet paper, I would suggest that there should be at least 2.
