If you want an authentic experience, and if you want to be part of a South African family, this is the place for you. The owners are incredibly kind and are always looking out for you. They want you to have the best experience. The location of the property is very safe, and so is the neighbourhood. And please don't hesitate to go to Soweto because of the things you read online. The ambiance is amazing, people are very friendly and Soweto carries a very dark history which should be known by everyone who is travelling to South Africa. Change has arrived in Soweto, and it is the perfect location to stay if you also want to explore some sights in Johannesburg by using the Hop-on hop-off bus tour.

Everything was great. Room was super-comfy and Lungi and Cynthia take great care of their guests. I stayed 2 nights. Was able to attend an Orlando Pirates game, then went to Johannesburg and Pretoria the next day, and of course did the signature bike tour of Soweto, which is of course a must if staying here.

Lungi and his wife are very friendly and Lungi is a very good guide through the town of Soweto. We learned a lot of interesting things about apartheid and history of the country and their way of life today.

A very nice and welcoming family made us feel at home at once. We felt safe walking around in the neighbourhood and met a lot of friendly sowetans. Lunghi, the owner of the house, has lived his whole life here and he is a very interesting and authentic guide with strong opinions about the development since apartheid.

The welcome we received, the genuine care shown to us, the delicious meals specifically prepared for us by Cynthia, and the priceless knowledge shared by Lungi of Soweto itself and its wider role in South Africa's transition to universal suffrage - all 10/10!

Our stay with Lungi and his family was memorable ! Staying with them is like being part of their family for a short time. You get to experience historical Soweto as well as today’s reality, through the eyes of a local that lived through its history. The food, cooked by Cynthia, and shared with the hosts, was absolutely amazing. We did the 4-hour + lunch bicycle tour and it was super interesting. Lungi was very knowledgeable about Soweto’s history, but also very generous in sharing the untold stories of his city. Don’t miss out ! Oh and the room is perfect, spacious and very confortable.
