★★★★★ I booked at this place yesterday for one night and when I got there there was someone already living there. I tried to call the owner and his phone is off. I just need a refund 😭 I’m still trying to get hold of him on both numbers shown

★★★★★ I didnt enjoy my stay at all , the place was practically filthy and there was lack of preparation and cleanliness for us. Had to wash everything before use , there were numerous spiders everywhere too. We had a very unpleasant stay.

★★★★★ Mhambi was ideal for the purposes of my stay in Grahamstown. I had my privacy and managed work with no disturbances. The place is spacious and clean and has a homely atmosphere to it.
