Quiet, comfortable and convenient.
This was the third time I stayed at Kaya4u and I am once again very satisfied with their service and the guest house itself. The WiFi that is on during loadshedding is a big plus for me.

It was the 2nd time I stay at Khaya4u and I really enjoy it again. I like that the staff offer privacy and don't strike up too many conversations. If I come to visit Dundee, I only want to stay here. Very good value for money and peaceful and quiet.

Overnight facility at a very reasonable rate.
We were just on a history trail and wanted to visit Talana Museum and Blood River. Dundee was therefore a good stopover. We slept in the unit outside the main building which was very neat and clean. As a self-catering facility, the kitchenette was a bit of a challenge, as there wasn't any stove and cooking equipment. In the absence of a serving bowl to prepare a meal in the microwave, the overseer was helpful and willing to borrow a glass bowl from the house's kitchen. I suggest investing in a private braai area in front of each of the units.

Very noisy. The maintenance is not up to standard.
Room 1's shower faucet knob is loose and falls off when you touch it. Room 2's shower head pipe was broken off in the wall and fixed with "threadtape" (which you actually use to wrap over the thread of a pipe to seal it so it doesn't leak). As soon as you open the shower, the whole head and pipe coming out of the wall falls on you. Clients book in until 1 in the morning and ring the bell non-stop and shout and scream in the corridors. Only one bedside lamp works.

Comfortable, peaceful and quiet, friendly service and delicious breakfast.
This place is really good value for money. I stayed for three nights and the service was great! They asked me what time I wanted my breakfast ready and it was promptly 8am for me. The breakfast was only R50 and it was so nice and tasty! It was also very peaceful and no noise from other guests. During loadshedding they have a generator and I could still watch Netflix on my laptop and use the lights. My car was always safe behind a security gate and under a canopy. I would recommend Kaya4u and I would stay there again anytime.

Cute accommodation with very good service.
The accommodation is very cute, neat and clean. The staff is very helpful. All that was a big disappointment was that there was no hot water. It was a freezing cold weekend and the fact that we couldn't take a hot shower was very disappointing. Furthermore, the accommodation has everything one needs. The fridge only froze our groceries. Other than that, it was a very nice experience. The service the ladies provided was very good. The cleanliness and nice finish also contribute to a pleasant experience.

Not very satisfied.
The room's fridge was not on, we were tired from the whole day's bowls tournament, no water, no ice trays. Couldn't see the goats playing at all. Went looking for someone, but there was no one. Laundry, sheets, towels hung on wire all night. Toilet ran all night. Shower head is broken, water flows on one side. Behind the door it is full of cobwebs. One bed's warm blanket doesn't work, Floors were dirty and sticky. There was one bright spot. The next morning a lady brought us boiling water for coffee. Sleep a lot, but this place's maintenance is poor. Sorry!

Unfriendly reception, but clean and tidy for the price we paid.
We were not received kindly. Room was neat and clean. There is no mirror in the room by a power point to blow hair, no milk, nor was there even more Cremora for coffee at the communal coffee station the day we checked out. Doesn't help to ring a bell for service. We only found out when we read later on the website that you could also ask for breakfast, it was never mentioned upon check-in.

Value for money for one night.
Khaya4u is a very guest house with real wooden antique floors and furniture. It's clean and tidy. Rooms are spacious and there is a nice big garden. Our bed was a bit uncomfortable and we couldn't find anyone to ask for fresh milk for coffee the next morning. All that bothered was the front door that was open all night. Arrangements may be made around its closing. It is ideal for a bride and or groom to dress up there. The spacious rooms and beautiful furniture will make for beautiful photos. Of the modern furniture etc. complements the antiquity of Khaya4u.

Breakfast was very poor, staff did not ask how we wanted our food.... Low level contractors who were there, and not worth R550 per night.... We are not used to such low level guests around us not a guest house.... Bathroom squeaky small...... Yard behind very dirty and in the eyes of guests..... Staff very bombastic and untidy..... Not at all recommendable for overseas or SA tourism accommodation not....
