138 guests' feedbackWe had a wonderful stay, thank you very much!
Had a great stay. Henz also accommodated our request for a barbecue. Quiet environment, close to shops etc.
Enjoy our stay at Tranquility and very understanding that we could clock in before 15:00.
It is always a pleasure to go home here. We choose the place every time located close to everything.
It was very nice.
Thanks to the host, always so kind. This is our 3rd time at Tranquility and we will definitely be back.
Enough space in the room to be able to take out and open all the suitcases.
See stars.
It is always neat and clean.
It's always nice to stay here. It is centrally located and close to the places we need to be.
We had a warm welcome from the host. He waited for us and immediately knew who we were when we stopped in front of the gate, even opened the gate for us. Everything was very tidy and one of the best overnight accommodation we stayed at, very helpful. All we missed was a small box of milk to have an evening tea and morning coffee. The rest was all available. Thank you for your kindness and help with an inquiry of a place.
I loved the view we got from every window and door in the room. The bed was pretty comfortable, and the place itself made us feel at home.
The host was so accommodating, the stay was peaceful, comfortable and had all things which may be needed for a stay.
Affordable, clean and tidy and secure parking. Host kindly received was very accommodating. Had to check in 2 hours before check in time.
Yes, very nice stay close to everything and quickly on the main road too.
It was nice, the host made us feel very welcome and was very helpful. The room we stayed in was very cosy and I love the view at night!
It was short lived, but the one night we spent there was very nice.
The little apartment at Tranquility was very neat and clean and had an excellent view, which made it truly amazing. I would definitely go there again. PS. Room number 2.
Neat and clean, which is most important to us. There is everything you need. It is a quiet environment. Good Wi-Fi. Secure parking.
We had a very nice stay. The room is nice and spacious, so you have space.
This place is awesome I highly recommend it.
Neat, beautiful, clean, safe, quiet, central.
Absolutely nothing to complain about.
There are a few units on the same premises. My husband is on crutches so luckily our accommodation could be changed to the ground floor! Excellent privacy, friendliness and communication!
It was very peaceful.
Quiet area. Friendly reception. Beautiful apartment.
Our place had a balcony and large windows that looked out over Table Mountain and the Cape lights!
It is centrally located and very good hospitality.
We always enjoy staying there, it is central and close to everything, will stay there again.
The place is neat and I liked the decor. There is everything one needs for one night. Even provision for load shedding. Just a bit small for 4 people, so a bit cramped. Definitely value for money.
The full size fridge and Wi-Fi backup during loadshedding is well appreciated.
Loved the full-size fridge/freezer.
It's always nice to stay.
Neat, cosy place for a small family. Just wish they had a business stamp for their invoices.
Owner forgot my reservation, even though I contacted him directly as well. Room is very compact, cockroaches walking around, shower is quite a creepy sight and we had terribly busy and noisy guests next to us until late at night. Depends where you want to go, but location is quite out of the way of any good centers or sights.
There is absolutely nothing to complain about. Good value for money, neat and clean.
There is never anything to complain about. We always try to stay here when we go to Cape Town. We are going to stay here again this weekend.
Nice central, neat, sunny, especially the daybeds by the windows. Lovely view and very helpful host. I can't think of anything negative. Perfect accommodation.
The area is very quiet.
Practical layout with all necessities at your disposal. Picturesque view of city in quiet peaceful area. Definitely a must for any traveler.
Very friendly welcome.
Quiet and safe environment. Accommodation is centrally located near shopping malls and service stations.
This is always our one stop when we come to the Cape and they have space available.
If I can highlight 2 things it is that the place needs new towels and maybe only allocated parking per room. Was awesome! Will definitely recommend. Everything you need for a self-catering unit. We just slept there in the evenings so for us it worked 100%.
It is a home away from home.
See stars.
It was nice to stay there I will stay there again. Friendly and safe.
Very good value for money. And the customer service is top notch. I would like to give 5 stars for value for money also because there was fresh milk and coffee available, the good fast internet is also a big plus point. I would have given cleanliness 5 stars as well if there weren't a few cockroaches here and there. I also only gave 4 stars for safety because the parking spaces are shared and a bit cramped. Other than that, our stay was perfect.
Value for money. If you need just a break with your spouse.
We will definitely use again.
For an overnight stay where you're just looking for a bed to rest your body for a weekend, Tranquility is definitely the place. Our only negative comment is that you waste a lot of water waiting for hot water, which we can't really afford in the Cape. But for a quiet area near most major shopping centers and hospitals, it is the best.
There is all that is needed.
No hot water in bathroom sink.
Nothing more to say. I stayed there before and was disappointed that the room was disappointing. Previously it wasn't the case. Perhaps they didn't have time to clean but we checked in late so that cannot be the reason.
Shower head is clogged, little water coming out & the place is very cold.
The accommodation is pleasant and well located. However, we had a problem with hot water at the dish sink as well as the hand sink in the room. After we ran the faucets for a long time as the owner said to do. No fire holders for the lamp intended for loadshedding. Cell phone lights are only used. On top of that, we will definitely stay there again in the future.
It's a 10/10 for me.
Tranquility offers tidy, private accommodation. Safe parking place was a highlight. The owner was incredibly nice. Would definitely recommend.
We felt welcomed the moment we stepped foot there. We brought our kids with it was unplanned and I totally forgot to let tranquility know. But they were so kind to let them stay without paying extra and gave extra clean linen. Thank you so much. We will definitely recommend tranquility to our friends and family.
Sorry our time was limited, but would love to stay there again. Henk was absolutely so helpful and extremely professional. We are happy to recommend Tranquility.
Clean tidy and centrally located. The owners are very helpful and friendly.
Will stay here again!
Very happy, accommodation suited our needs perfectly. Very quiet and tranquil as the name suggests. Great location, close to the airport, close to the venue and was not far from the beach. Very comfortable beds. No complaints whatsoever. Will book again should the opportunity arise. Thank you.
It was a peaceful area and the tranquility suited us. I would definitely like to come back again. Thank you very much.
It was so nice and quiet.
The host was awesome. Made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Quiet and comfortable. Will definitely go back again.
I would recommend this guest house.
It is very centrally located and a quiet residential area.
It's our second visit in less than two months and each time we've been very well received. The rooms are so neat. You feel at home. I would recommend the place to anyone or couple who wants value for their money. I would definitely go again!
Very nice stay, thank you.
We arrived just before a storm broke out with heavy hail showers. Absolutely beautiful view of Cape Town through and the host friendly and hospitable.
Will surely stay there again.
What a breathtaking stay at Tranquility. It was easy to find it. I will come back again. Will also recommend it to family and friends.
The people at Tranquility are very helpful.
Tranquility is definitely value for money and it's pocket friendly. We would definitely like to stay there again.
The coffee, sugar and milk were a bonus.
The place was comfortable and very neat. The owner was also very friendly.
The towels did not smell pleasant at all, had an odd smell. The pillows also smelt odd.
We are satisfied. Clean and tidy. The view in the evening is beautiful with the lights.
Otherwise it was okay. Owner only impersonal.
See stars.
Henz is very helpful and goes out of his way to please you. Will knock on his door again anytime.
I really enjoy the stay it was a one in a lifetime experience that I would love to experience again.
Awesome getaway place
Thank you very much, we were welcomed by our host. Apartment was neat and clean, quiet area, we had a good rest. Apartment is centrally located. Will use it again for future stays.
I went to Cape Town for job training. The room was very comfortable. It is quite sufficient if one goes for a business trip. It would even be nice if one would check in as a family. There is full DStv and WiFi. It is centrally located and the room has a beautiful view.
Tranquility is located in nice, quite, residential area of Cape Town (Avondale). In walking distance from small mall and few groceries shops, ca. 10 km from the international airport. The rooms are comfortable and suitable for 1-2 persons. Equipped in basics items (stove, cupboards, microwave, bed, table and some chairs, bathroom towels) to make the stay pleasant. Even a longer stay. Each room has it's own small bathroom. The rooms are cleaned once week (if you stay longer) or after guests departure. The price per night is average for the area and adequate to the service provided. If necessary you can always contact the owner.
The price is very reasonable and the unit was very neat. I also like all the doors and windows because you could cool the place down quickly. The reception was also cordial and Henz communicates very well.
Our place was clean, tidy and very comfortable.
Everything was neat and tidy, good value for money. Was just unsure if there was WiFi available.
Accommodation within walking distance of shopping centers etc. yet located in a peaceful environment.
Value for money, only the kitchen faucet needs repair or replacement.
Value for money. I always come back. Host is welcoming and helpful recommend anyone who need a place in this area to use it.
When we checked in, the room's beds were freshly made and very clean. Room smelled bad of cigarette smoke which was bad for us. Fan not very effective. Rest was perfect.
I doubt they're following Covid-19 protocols. Cutlery was dirty and looks very old, basin (sink) looks ugly, the tap makes a noise, there was literally 20 ml dishwashing liquid, basically most of the kitchenware looks disgusting. The shower's handle falls off when you want to turn on the tap, the bathroom basin does not drain water. Toilet roll was on its last. There was no hand wash or soap. No WiFi password was given. We've been to much more satisfying, neat cottages and guest houses before for the same value. Just thought we'll try out Tranquility. Anyway, besides the above mentioned, the place is quiet and secured. The bedding was neat.
When you turn on the shower, you stand with the handle in your hand. Plug of the sink in the bathroom does not close tightly. Wash your face under running water. Kitchen sink plug leaking and saucepan full of water. Cockroaches in your bed. Cutlery sticky. Everything you want to use must be washed.
We would love to stay there again on our next vacation.
It is safe and quiet, clean and tidy. Breathtaking view of the city, with small balcony on the side. Would have appreciated more if there was an outside barbecue, enjoy lighting a fire.
Host was waiting for us. We arrived very late. Was friendly and helpful. I will stay there again. Twelve minutes drive from the airport.
Very quiet, I was just disappointed when I came there and the gate was locked, we were shouting but no one opened, my partner had to jump over the gate and one of the residents opened for us, other than that I have no problem with the place, it was a very nice weekend.
We were very happy at Tranquility, it's value for money.
Very peaceful environment and the place is nicely equipped with stove, microwave, kettle, etc. The owner made us feel comfortable with his kindness. I will return again anytime.
Henz received us very kindly, we immediately felt at home and stayed very nice. Guest room neat and clean with all necessary amenities. We were wonderfully rested in the mornings, would definitely recommend it.
The accommodation is very well furnished, tidy and really a peaceful area to stay. Reception from the owner very friendly and well received. Thank you very much again.
Great, special place with awesome views. Definitely going back for a 2-night stay.
Accommodation was perfect, highly recommended.
Thank you very much Henz for the weekend, your place is well located and the decor just makes you feel at home. We have been to different budget apartments and this one is the best. It is nicely centrally located. Thanks to the host for being accommodating with the earlier check-in time as well.
My son had 2 wrestling competitions. We were located very close to the Velodrome, and had an absolutely wonderful stay. I would recommend the guest house to anyone.
We really enjoyed our stay at tranquillity. Value for money. Very welcoming. The best part about the place is the location. It's super safe and close to almost everything. Excellent!
It was a wonderful place to stay and close to where we needed to be. Very safe and peaceful and we had a lovely rest.
We had our own space, we got the peace we needed. The place was neat. We will go there again.
This is value for money! The place is easily found, and a real gem.
Absolutely worth your money.
There was a bit of a misunderstanding with a double booking, but it was resolved quickly and efficiently. The place is centrally located and safe. It is value for money accommodation and I will definitely use it again.
A nice place close to the airport. I will definitely stay here again.
Will book with them again anytime. Environment was peaceful, felt like I was on vacation.
The accommodation was affordable for us and we enjoyed the stay. Our host was very friendly even though we woke him up at one o'clock that night because our train only arrived in the Cape at 24:00.
For the purpose of my one night stay, the place suits my needs.
Clean facility, safe neighbourhood and facility, good customer service and it feels like home away from home. I loved it.
Excellent service, safe and secured.
Net die stortwater wat lank vat om warm te word.
I enjoyed my stay but I would suggest that they hire housekeeping team.
Definitely value for money.
Very clean and just needs work with the shower.
Finishing touches needed with the place overall.
They have tea and cookies in the room.
Place not suitable for more than 2 adults. Unfortunately, it didn't feel like we were expected. Place did not appear clean either. Soap in the bathroom to wash hands is necessary. Otherwise, we got a good night's rest. The environment was peaceful and the view of Table Mountain and city lights very beautiful.
The reception from us was not lasting. The sleeping place was not comfortable. Would not recommend it.
The room had not been cleaned adequately before occupancy.
We have been using your services regularly since the inception of the website, with great success and satisfaction! This was the first time we were disappointed in accommodation offered by you. We feel very strongly that Tranquility does not meet the website's good standard! This should not be on your list! First, I found Tranquility below Plattekloof, and it is definitely not located there. Reception on arrival was not welcoming at all and parking too small for our car. We had to find co-guests to move his car, so we could both get in and out of our cars. Our room was not up to standard at all. The shower's water was ice cold when we wanted to shower and there were no hot water taps in the sink of bathroom nor kitchen - have to boil kettle for shaving water and dishes. The towel rail had been broken off and was lying on the floor, there was no toilet paper holder (and the cardboard roll of toilet paper had fallen out - therefore of poor quality) and when the shower tap turned on you were standing with it in your hand! The bed's duvets were very poor - the inside kept shifting to one side, with the result that one person was lying with a thin cloth and the other person with a bunched-up stuffing on him. The electricity connection is a dangerous bundle of wires. The door does not close properly, with the result that neighbors' barbecue smoke entered our room, along with a cold draft. The cloths and cleaning supplies were lying around, so there was an effort to clean, although I washed all the crockery, cutlery and cups before use, as it seemed questionable. Without a doubt the worst accommodation we have ever experienced.
Easy to reach and not far from establishment where we needed to be.
We had a very nice stay in Tranquillity. Will stay there again. I have no complaints.
The place is nice but the fridge is too small for 4 people. The bedding was never changed for 4 nights. Not even given clean towels. No air-con while it was so hot, the roof fans didn't work at all. The place itself is a bit small for 4 people.
The drive-in to the parking is a big steep. The front door is difficult to lock.
