Very pleasant, comfortable and enjoyable. Friendly hosts. I enjoyed my stay very much. Pet friendly. The airport shuttle was very convenient. The accommodation was huge, with a spacious bedroom and massive lounge area. Fridge, TV, microwave and kettle were provided. Highly recommended.

Very comfortable, warm hospitality and quite unique. I enjoyed the hospitality. The owner welcomed my mother, daughter and me very warmly. The upstairs room was very spacious with a well-stocked fridge, a living room area to enjoy. It had a lovely aerial view, very comfortable beds and easy entrance and exit. Overall, a lovely stay.

Friendly and warm reception and helpfulness. The booking was for a friend who is going to do his honors in Theology at UKZN. He had a very warm and friendly welcome and the owner went out of his way to help him. He enjoyed his stay and said it was good value for money.

Vriendelike en warm ontvangs en behulpsaamheid. Die bespreking was vir 'n vriend wat by UKZN sy honneurs in Teologie gaan doen. Hy het 'n baie warm en vriendelike verwelkoming gehad en die eienaar het uit sy pad gegaan om hom behulpsaam te wees. Hy het sy verblyf geniet en het gesê dit is goeie waarde vir geld.

Thank you for your kind words. Indeed, Reverend Dube soon became a friend for whom our door will always be open.

Dankie vir die vriendelike woorde. Eerwaarde Dube het inderdaad gou 'n vriend geword vir wie ons deur altyd oop sal wees.

We did not stay at The Crafty Coal Stove as it couldn't accommodate the 5 adults comfortably. The place looked like no one had attended to it. Right when you enter, you are hit by a smell of mold and wet carpet. There is a thin pathway in which to walk because there was a lot of clutter everywhere. It did not look anything like what we saw on the booking because we had seen it to have multiple rooms, only to find a single bedroom with 1 double bed and 2 single beds in the same room. The beds and bed sheets looked unkempt. Basically, the whole place didn't look healthy to stay in.

Good food and service with a smile. Leendert and his family was very accommodating with any and all requests. Can happily recommend them if you're looking for a stopover or short stay in Pietermaritzburg.

He stayed because it was paid for and too late to find another place. He mentioned that he could get a better place than what he paid for. His second accommodation was around the same rate and the service in all categories was pleasing.

Place very dirty, mould in fridge. Not worth the money charged, the towels provided were all torn, and surface areas were very dirty, toothbrush glass in the bathroom looked like haven't been cleaned for months inside and mould in the fridge.
