Hospitality and a warm welcome Margaret's Place
Margaret is a friendly, hospitable hostess and runs her business very efficiently. From our first correspondence she was extremely helpful, interactive, wanting our stay to be as comfortable as possibe. Margaret's Place is the perfect place to spend the night before a flight, it being so close to OR Thambo Airport. We will be staying there again.

very good place
It's a very good place. Everything is ok. The only problem is no working desk. Will try the bigger room next time. It's good to have a emergency light in the room because of the load shedding.

nice little self-catered option in Jo'burg
I had a very nice couple of days at Margaret's Place and Margaret herself was a delightful hostess. I highly recommend this place. The WiFi worked excellently, no shortage of hot water, laundry facilities on site and there was cereal, milk, coffee and tea waiting in the little kitchen.
