Thoroughly enjoyed the stay.
We were received as if we were good family. Well equipped room with parking close enough.
Very hospitable, will stay there again.
They went out of their way to make it comfortable for us.
No fridge to keep water or juice cold, it was very hot. No mirror at the power plug to blow hair.
The owner was super friendly. The place is clean, quiet and safe. Would definitely book that place again.
Andries they are very hospitable and incredibly helpful. Would stay with them again any day!
Andries is the friendliest and nicest person you can find. I would definitely recommend The Lantern Guesthouse and I will definitely book my place there from now on.
Had a great stay and thank you for the extra effort for our guests. Will definitely stay there again. My dog child was also very happy.
Our dog also had a wonderful stay. Thank you.
I forgot my earrings there and the guest house immediately let me know and asked for an address to return them to me. Very grateful.
I was well received even though I arrived after 19:00. The place is super neat and there was safe covered parking.
The rooms are beautiful. Clean, tasteful and the loveliest paintings on the walls. A big bonus is the WiFi and Netflix.
