Staying at House on York was an absolute delight from start to finish. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the city center, with easy access to public transport and all the local buzz. As soon as you step into the courtyard, you're greeted by a peaceful, thoughtfully designed space that sets the tone for a relaxing stay.

What truly surprised me was finding a small fitness corner tucked in the garden; it’s such a thoughtful touch for guests who want to stay active without leaving the property. The staff went above and beyond—everyone, from front desk team to the manager and even the owner, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. On one evening, the area lost power, and instead of leaving us in the dark, the manager personally brought over two LED lanterns. It was such a considerate gesture that made a big difference. Special shoutout to Tino—he was consistently helpful, professional, and genuinely kind. This place isn’t just a hotel; it’s a true home base with heart.

The stay at Cyrildene Lodge was just average and didn’t live up to my expectations. Upon arrival, we were met with minimal assistance since we paid online—this seemed to be a point of friction for the staff, leaving us waiting without much support. The room was clean but nothing remarkable—basic furnishings with no real character. We had to ask for toiletries, as none were provided upon check-in, which felt like an oversight. Also, the DSTV service wasn’t activated, so we couldn’t enjoy our usual TV entertainment unless we arranged it separately. While the location is decent and the price was reasonable, the lack of attention to detail and basic guest needs made the experience underwhelming. Not something I’d recommend unless you’re looking for a no-frills, budget option.
