Avoid if disabled.
Definitely not recommended for people with disabilities. The host was unhelpful and patronising. I would not recommend staying there. Things would have been better if the gentleman were polite and professional. First bad experience in Colesberg ever! Being a seasoned traveler, this was the first time that I was treated like an inconvenience. Very disappointed.
