Valley Guest House

Hosts and breakfast were super! Accommodation was clean, safe & secure.

Nope- was all good.

I am sorry we couldn't stay for the breakfast, because my son had to be checked in at the hospital by 6 am. I would have liked to. Our welcome was first class; kind and considerate. Our beds were extremely comfortable. The location was perfect, fairly central, but peaceful, quiet, one felt as if one was out of town. We even saw a little dassie run along the perimeter wall. There was barely a hum of traffic, so lovely and quiet. We could relax and enjoy a peaceful evening. We loved the privacy, the big tree in the back garden, the faint glimmer of town lights through the tree, the beautiful art works, especially the wonderful zebra painting, and the beautiful hedgehogs on the verandah.

I don't know how you could change/improve this, I just had to watch not to trip over the big tiled steps up to the bathroom. Not a criticism, just wondering.

Lovely family who went out of their way to make me and other guests welcome and comfortable.

Breakfast was very nice. The location was convenient. There is a beautiful garden right outside the room I booked, and the area was quiet.

I booked my room specifically because the listing mentioned that there would be a fridge available. When I asked about this, the host switched the fridge on... but when I opened it, it was clear that it had not been cleaned in a long time, and I ended up having to clean mold out of it. Arriving at the property and checking in was awkward: I was waved in, but then waited outside the building for about 10 minutes after being assured someone would let me in soon, and then I had to make another phone call before that happened. The area is quiet, which is lovely, but when fellow guests had their breakfast very early (on the floor right above my room), their noise woke me up. The bathroom was also slightly flooded when I checked in - not a big problem, and the host apologised for this, but it still seemed like it would have been nice to double-check the room when expecting a guest to arrive.
