Pros:

I liked the communication from the owners. I liked the pool area and the bathrooms. It's really a lovely place and the location was perfect. In morning I could walk down the street and buy pastries and coffee it was also very safe.

Okay stay but overpriced
Pros:

Central location in Franschhoek and a refreshing pool

Cons:

The room had a bad smell. Smelled like vomit. Also we didn’t particularly appreciate the dead animal decoration and furniture. Wouldn’t recommend for the price paid.

Great apartment - would return
Pros:

Nice warm welcome and the proximity to restaurants and the wine tram made it a super choice.
Our apartment had great air conditioning which was a Godsend as it was late 30s. Bed was really comfortable and everything was spot on.
The garden with the splash pool was perfect.
Loved the rabbit & baby chicks.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike.

Pros:

Alles! Angefangen vom einfachen Check-in, Parkmöglichkeit genau vor dem Haus und einer unglaublichen modernen schönen Ausstattung. Unser Zimmer war riesengroß mit allem, was man für einen schönen Aufenthalt benötigt. Darüberhinaus war das Badezimmer ähnlich so groß wie das Wohnzimmer - sogar mit einer Badewanne:). Die Lage war super zentral und alles fußläufig zu erreichen. Für die wunderschöne Weinregion steht sogar ein Weinkühlschränk zur Verfügung:). Wir haben nichts auszusetzen und können es nur weiterempfehlen!! Danke für die schöne Zeit.
