Tastefully decorated accomodation in a good location
Pros:

The accommodation is very tastefully decorated and it is just a short walk from the sea. The owner was nice and even gave us an upgrade. It is quite impressive how the owner managed to create multiple accommodations on the same property, while our accommodation still felt very private and unique. The area felt safe walking back from the restaurants in the early evening.

Great location with a wonderful manager Janet but very run down property.
Pros:

The location is great. Walking distance to town and the property is quiet and peaceful. Janet the manager is great and very helpful

Cons:

The property needs a huge upgrade…..eg 3 different knobs on the cooking top. Ceiling fan has old tatty strings. Bar fridge doesn’t keep milk cold. The door to the unit wouldn’t stay closed until it was locked. The shower didn’t drain quickly enough so the water built up. The bathroom floor had long black hairs on it so it hadn’t been cleaned properly. Although the bed was comfy and the linen clean.The room needed painting and the cracks filled up. The cupboard doors were sticky and difficult to handle. I understand that this is an older property but it needs a lot of maintenance. This is our 3rd visit but unfortunately we won’t be returning. Certainly not value for money….

Very comfortable night stay in Hermanus! Just what we needed!!
Pros:

Great location to town. Very comfortable room and bed. I didn’t realized we would have a kitchen - so that was a pleasant surprise! The host met us and showed us our room which was very cozy. She had a great recommendation to Chard for dinner. We had a delicious steak dinner. We also had secured parking which was very helpful for us. We also left some medicine in the refrigerator. Thankfully, once we realized it, we were able to drive back and obtain it. We very much appreciated the ability to have it held for us until we were able to get back.

Cons:

The bathroom was small but not a big deal. We were there for one night and you couldn’t beat the value of this cute place.
