“I think this B&B distinguishes itself through dedicated hospitality, particularly the attentive owner, who clearly aims to create a welcoming atmosphere for guests. While its Durban location places it conveniently near DUT, I observed the surrounding area shows signs of urban challenges; inside, however, guests find a clean and cared-for environment. This property seems best suited to travelers who value a personal touch and appreciate a host invested in their comfort.”
