I think it is the cheapest option for accomodation near airport. You can even go by walk there although it isn't very comfortable. Inside guesthouse there are clean rooms and shared shower. Quite place. There aren't any shops or restaurants near. Only at the airport.

Joy and Steve were very helpful. They arranged a city tour for us, got our washing done and helped us with any request satisfactorily. Despite no meal plans, the cokking facilities were very useful and the drinks and cookies were welcome.

The Terrylin was very convenient from the airport, and the owners, while there were kind of generous with their time and advice. The neighborhood is not walkable at night.

I was just staying overnight, so chose this place for its price and proximity to the airport. It was clean, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. It's basic, but comfortable. Would stay there again.

Location close to airport. Security Staff. For accommodation that depends on airport customers it is not very accommodating with check-in time. My flight landed @ 0600 and I requested early check-in, it was refused and I was told to adhere to the 1400 check-in. I hung around the airport till 1100 and headed to Terrylin. We were greeted and told to wait outside on the porch room wouldn't be long. There was no other guest in the place. We were left sitting outside the house till 1400 ridiculous. Went in to use the toilet around 1300 and the owner was sitting out the back smoking, Left us outside for 3 hours to prove a point, bad business. Plenty of places to stay around the airport area pick a different 1 avoid Terrylin

Great value!!! Very helpful staff, Clean bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, etc. Good location re: mini-grocery, bus route, & airport. Excellent breakfast. Electric blankets for cold nights. Beautiful backyard. Good security. All of the basic needs for the active traveller without the unnecessary frills that add to the cost.

Near Airport. Personnel made us feel comfortable. The were no extra blancets in the rooms. The bedding was not enough for a cold night. Personal belongings should not be in bathrooms and kitchen which guests use.

Breakfast was much better than they suggested when they warned us that it is a "light breakfast". Staff was nice and very helpful. Now I understand what "guesthouse and backpackers hostel" means, the whole place was full of written notes of what can and cannot be done, warnings and interdictions. At least one of the beds in the family room was horrible. No heat provided, had to rent heater for the night for 100 zar, very expensive. The place was in a nice and safe location, close to the airport, inside it looked like a house, too much stuff all over the place, not nice. The Internet has Godspeed but is only one hour, otherwise is very expensive at 80zar.

niente, al massimo la posizione vicino allìaereoporto JNB premetto che all'arrivo nella guesthouse la signora(titolare) ci ha accolto spiegandoci che la stanza che avevamo prenotato era fornita di tutti i confort descritti nell'offerta, ovvero: bagno in camera riscaldato e wi fee. il riscontro è stato pessimo, la camera era sporchissima ed erano presenti cartacce di un precedente cliente, le lenzuola puzzavano, il bagno era vicino ma freddissimo il wi fee assente. Inoltre quando siamo usciti per fare un giro in citta al nostro rientro in guest il campanello del citofono esterno per entrare non funzionava piu per cui ho dovuto scavalcare un muretto di cinta della casa alto piu di un metro per poi bussare alla finestra della signora per farmi aprire il cancello della guesthouse. pessima esperienza in una citta che oltre tutto è rinomata come non sicura
