Good place to stay, super safe and not too far from the key landscapes, shout out to a certain Quennel Tshabadira, made sure we felt welcomed. There is room for improvement with bedding, the sheets are old

Very generous, caring and kind lady in Room 11. Clean kitchen and bathroom. Beautiful art work & photos everywhere. Only issue is WIFI problem. Every 5 minutes I had to login with different usernames.

I spent the night here before an international flight. I found the staff and other guests friendly and respectful of my privacy.The distance was a bit expensive using an Uber but since it was during the peak of the taxi strike, I didn't struggle for transport and it was close enough to Observatory to go grocery and thrift shopping.I was also given the option of transport by the lodge should I struggle to get transport to the airport.Comfortable, quiet lodgings with hot shower.

I stayed at Lighthouse Farm Lodge for 12 days, and it became a very confortable place. Although some other visitors where quite loud at night, or not cleaning after using the kitchen and facilities, in general its a welcoming, peaceful place, appropiate for flexible travellers that don't ask for much. The location is inside a guard protected ecovillage, sourranded by horses, chickens, organic food shops etc. A car, uber or taxi is needed to move around the city, but its not far from other neibourghoods or city center. Another advantage is that the place doesn't suffer the low shedding, as it's next to the Hospital, also has a nice backyard to make a fire, have breakfast etc. Angie, who receives the visitors, is always around and very nice person, always up to help with anything.
