Verified reviewvery good

A pleasant stop over on the way to Sodwana. Elsie was an extremely friendly and informative hostess - gave us a list of activities (and supplied maps) that we could do in a day in Swaziland (awesome that the border is only a kilometer away). The rooms were comfortable, neat and tidy. Kitchenette needs a bit of maintenance. Elsie is very passionate about the monkey rehabilitation center - interesting to hear about the monkeys personalities. We will definitely be back.
