Read before booking.
We booked a stay for 7 days but left after the first night. We cancelled and moved out for several reasons.
1) As a tourist travelling in from abroad, I feel the least an Airbnb host should do is describe the state of the place. There is load shedding in South Africa but this wasn’t highlighted. It is highly problematic and undesirable for tourists travelling in and wishing to enjoy their holiday.
2) The pictures are accurate to some extent. As there are so many showpieces, dust piles up and it was not cleaned up well. There was also cigarette ashes left all over and not cleaned up.
3) We lost water supply for a day. And the host was slow to respond and said it was not in his hands. It was tough and we decided it was best to move out.
I have stayed in many Airbnbs and definitely can say this place needs a lot of improvement. The pictures need to be retaken as the place has deteriorated more.
