77 guests' feedbackNice, spacious and quiet. Thank you.
What a nice place to stay.
This was the third time I stayed at Kaya4u and I am once again very satisfied with their service and the guest house itself. The WiFi that is on during loadshedding is a big plus for me.
It was the 2nd time I stay at Khaya4u and I really enjoy it again. I like that the staff offer privacy and don't strike up too many conversations. If I come to visit Dundee, I only want to stay here. Very good value for money and peaceful and quiet.
Was on business overnight travel. Was happy with stay.
I made a late booking for my trip back from Howick to Piet Retief (Mkhondo). Khaya4u was a perfect midway stopping point. I stayed comfortably and felt safe and secure. It was also great to have good WiFi connectivity and being able to park my car within the guesthouse property. I will certainly use Khaya4u again for midway stops to or from Piet Retief or if I am visiting the area.
It was neat, clean, quiet and safe and met our requirements. The school reunion had a full program and we were able to get a good night's rest with free access to the accommodation premises.
The pillows were lumpy, the shower soor was broken, the window above the basin had no curtains, so the sun blinded us. No floormats next to the beds. Bathroom door broken. No plug near the mirror. Nowhere to put bags and cases. Walls were dirty. When messaging the host, wait several days for a reply.
It was nice yes, but would have liked an Aircon or fan in the rooms.
We were just on a history trail and wanted to visit Talana Museum and Blood River. Dundee was therefore a good stopover. We slept in the unit outside the main building which was very neat and clean. As a self-catering facility, the kitchenette was a bit of a challenge, as there wasn't any stove and cooking equipment. In the absence of a serving bowl to prepare a meal in the microwave, the overseer was helpful and willing to borrow a glass bowl from the house's kitchen. I suggest investing in a private braai area in front of each of the units.
Comfortable overnight accommodation.
The staff is extremely unfriendly and unhelpful. We had to shower in cold water early in the morning, we were taken unfriendly to another bathroom and there we barely started showering either, then the water was cold.
The personnel were drunk and made a huge noise until after 9 at night. The place was not particularly clean. The shower drain was blocked. The pillows were old and dirty.
Give this one a miss! This was one of the worst experiences at any accommodation establishment we've ever experienced. Not only did we not get the room we booked, but there were no towels, plates, cutlery or glasses. The 'kitchen' was a rickety countertop balancing on a bar fridge with a microwave stacked on top and the coffee tray on top of that. Every time we opened the fridge, the countertop slid out as well, which made for a very inconvenient and uncomfortable stay. The duvet was almost as thin as a sheet and the two pillows on each bed were so old and bumpy, which made for a very restless sleep. The owner and receptionist had varying accounts of why we weren't allocated the specific room which we booked, which clearly indicated deception on their part. Similarly, while wifi is clearly advertised, it was extremely unstable in our room and again the owner and the receptionist had different explanations for this. You can get much better in Dundee than this place.
Room 1's shower faucet knob is loose and falls off when you touch it. Room 2's shower head pipe was broken off in the wall and fixed with "threadtape" (which you actually use to wrap over the thread of a pipe to seal it so it doesn't leak). As soon as you open the shower, the whole head and pipe coming out of the wall falls on you. Clients book in until 1 in the morning and ring the bell non-stop and shout and scream in the corridors. Only one bedside lamp works.
This place is really good value for money. I stayed for three nights and the service was great! They asked me what time I wanted my breakfast ready and it was promptly 8am for me. The breakfast was only R50 and it was so nice and tasty! It was also very peaceful and no noise from other guests. During loadshedding they have a generator and I could still watch Netflix on my laptop and use the lights. My car was always safe behind a security gate and under a canopy. I would recommend Kaya4u and I would stay there again anytime.
Khaya4u is value for money and I would definitely recommend it.
Most beautiful old house. Breakfast delicious.
The accommodation is very cute, neat and clean. The staff is very helpful. All that was a big disappointment was that there was no hot water. It was a freezing cold weekend and the fact that we couldn't take a hot shower was very disappointing. Furthermore, the accommodation has everything one needs. The fridge only froze our groceries. Other than that, it was a very nice experience. The service the ladies provided was very good. The cleanliness and nice finish also contribute to a pleasant experience.
The beds slept well, and although there were no mini fridges or coffee facilities in the rooms, coffee and tea were available outside the rooms. There was no knowledgeable person available to tell us more about the area and what to visit.
The room's fridge was not on, we were tired from the whole day's bowls tournament, no water, no ice trays. Couldn't see the goats playing at all. Went looking for someone, but there was no one. Laundry, sheets, towels hung on wire all night. Toilet ran all night. Shower head is broken, water flows on one side. Behind the door it is full of cobwebs. One bed's warm blanket doesn't work, Floors were dirty and sticky. There was one bright spot. The next morning a lady brought us boiling water for coffee. Sleep a lot, but this place's maintenance is poor. Sorry!
Calm atmosphere. Accommodation is comfortable and tidy.
Well situated in the area. It was safe and secure and very affordable.
The place was close to the work I had to do there. Very convenient.
If you're traveling in that area, that's the place to stay. Clean, safe and the staff is the best.
We stayed in the self-catering apartments and had everything we needed.
Stayed long term for work - 2 weeks, and it was great. Very neat and clean and the most beautiful old house as the main guest house. Stayed in one of the interior rooms. This is my second time staying at Khaya for so long and each time it has been a good experience. The owner is also extremely hospitable and accommodating with the arrangements for accommodation. Happy to recommend it.
Bed sagged on one side. Could be problematic for long stays.
The outside self-catering does not have WiFi. Workers staying on site are noisy late at night and early in the morning.
Receptionist does not make you feel welcome. Very impersonal service. Guest house rooms have no desk/table to work on. Not suitable for business people who want to work in the evening.
I stayed here for one night en route to the East Coast as part of a motorbike trip. I was the only guest and whilst the staff were polite it did feel like my being there was a little inconvenient. The room was very clean (more channels on the TV a would be good) and a cooked breakfast for R50 was a bargain.
We stayed one night and the accommodation was completely adequate and tidy. However, we could not get any meals arranged in advance.
Value for money except there was no one at reception and the rooms I booked were not as quoted.
We were not received kindly. Room was neat and clean. There is no mirror in the room by a power point to blow hair, no milk, nor was there even more Cremora for coffee at the communal coffee station the day we checked out. Doesn't help to ring a bell for service. We only found out when we read later on the website that you could also ask for breakfast, it was never mentioned upon check-in.
We only slept in the room, no breakfast. The room was quaint and absolutely gorgeous. The house as a whole is very neat and clean. Will definitely be returning.
Khaya4u is a very guest house with real wooden antique floors and furniture. It's clean and tidy. Rooms are spacious and there is a nice big garden. Our bed was a bit uncomfortable and we couldn't find anyone to ask for fresh milk for coffee the next morning. All that bothered was the front door that was open all night. Arrangements may be made around its closing. It is ideal for a bride and or groom to dress up there. The spacious rooms and beautiful furniture will make for beautiful photos. Of the modern furniture etc. complements the antiquity of Khaya4u.
Everyone was very friendly. The breakfast was top quality!
Our stay was great. John was friendly and welcoming. The two girls were also very friendly and helpful. Peaceful setting. We felt very safe.
Beautiful well-kept self-catering. Friendly and helpful hosts.
Quiet and peaceful. Breakfast tasty.
Friendly staff.
Recmmended for a quick overnight stay and safe. Just not in a beautiful area of the town.
Unfortunately there was no hot water available. The towels were clean but heavily washed.
Enjoyed our stay. Double bed had an electric blanket that made us forget about the cold. Beautifully clean and quiet. Shower was very small and unfortunately only one small towel for the two of us.
The self-catering unit has adequate facilities and is well situated.
Indescribably beautiful and neat.
Clean, tidy room. Shower broke and was fixed immediately. Towels clean, soft. Breakfast delicious. Service great.
The old house that has been converted so nicely makes you feel at home. To be able to spend the night in our old home town and to be in such a wonderful guest house to feel at home like in the old days.
The staff were very welcoming and friendly. We really enjoyed our short stay.
Lovely stay, very friendly service and nice rooms. Will definitely be back again.
Beautiful rooms and very clean.
Wonderful guesthouse. Beautifully furnished bedrooms with wooden floors making it even more elegant. Highly recommended if you're interested in battlefields and history and need a resting place after a day of exploring the area. We only spent one night, but will definitely return.
The place is really clean, very neat and so safe as can be. I can really recommend it and stay there again. The staff on site's service is not the best. It was improve.
The room we had was nice. The kitchen was simple, but neat. Bathroom clean and in working order.
Couldn't sleep because noisy neighbors. Didn't know who to contact at 2am. Walls very thin. Spot short outside paint. First impressions not good at all. Not too bad inside. Towels rock hard.
One towel for two people. The room had a horrible smell. The headboard in our room is loose, as is the room next door, it kept us awake all night!
See stars.
It was easy and really a pleasure to sleep over here. Friendly and nice.
I was happy with everything. Your place is very clean. Your service is good. Your staff is very friendly, they always there for the clients with a smile on their faces. And the boss is so kind and friendly, i was overwhelmed by his reception. Keep up the good work guys.
Great value for your money, will be back! So clean and friendly staff!
We found the rooms very tidy and comfy, but could do with a full length mirror. The owners are lovely people and very accommodating. We had a lovely evening and a great breakfast the next morning. Very hospitable.
Hartelijk ontvangst door gastheer. Uitstekend ontbijt. Nette kamer in een leuk huis. Gastheer wist een goed adres voor een diner.
Nice big rooms. Nice to spend the night there. Secure parking.
Very peaceful atmosphere and centrally located.
Busy renovating the house. But facilities still available - especially the self-catering unit - excellent.
Pleasant quiet place. Looks like home now. Nice garden. Nice porch. Gives such a farm atmosphere. Chickens wake you up before your alarm goes off.
We may suggest that the room's bath towels should be changed daily if possible.
Can really recommend this place expecially for a longer stay to explore the area. Friendly owner who goes to great lengths - really appreciated it.
Our stay was pleasant - the premises are neat and service was friendly - should we overnight in Dundee again, we will most likely stay at Khaya4u again.
Treated like royalty, thank you!
Warm welcome and peacefulness of the place makes it easy to recommend to anyone.
Was satisfied overall. Would be nice if bottled water was provided. Tap water was awful.
I will book somewhere else next time.
