    The studio was exactly as it was in the picture and such a lovely, cozy space. The backup power really came in handy as I was there for school, and the constant loadshedding would have been an issue. There were water interruptions, but the hosts...

    The place is clean and the environment was safe. The room was everything and more.

Jaco-Rien and Bartho
Hidden behind a colourful patio, this recently renovated modern studio flatlet is quiet and comfortable, with all the essentials for short or medium term visits. Ideal for work travellers needing a fast and reliable wifi in a secluded spot with all necessary self catering tools, or leisure travellers looking for a couple days away with walkable access to all Melvilles shops, restaurants and the scenic koppies nature reserve. A must visit for regulars or first time guests to welcoming hosts.
Hosts are husband and wife (mid-thirties) living on property and always available (by phone or otherwise) to ensure you have the best possible visit
Quiet suburbian street. Melville is also well known for its night life and arty surrounds. Setting the trend where old school meets modern, great value for money with its various entertainment venues restaurants and shops. A must for any traveller passing through Joburg, all reachable on foot.
