Nice to stay B&B
It was a great stay, very friendly people who go out of their way to make it comfortable and pleasant. The rooms are beautiful and very clean. The only negative is that there are people in the area who plays load music late at night which is disturbing

Bad customer service, hotel didn't honour booking
The hotel didn't honour the booking. We called ahead before booking on the site to ensure that the room would be available, but when we arrived 1 hour later they had given the room to another guest. We were understandably a little annoyed, but the owner was super rude over the phone. When I tried to explain that we had made a non-refundable booking on hotels.com, and that we called beforehand and were told the room was available, he told me to "be quiet, I'm trying to be nice about this." When I later requested a refund through hotels.com, the owner told hotels.com that they had already refunded us by paying for another room in another hotel, which was not true. They had offered to do that, but only if we could wait around for hours for them to arrive from somewhere else in Namibia. So we found another hotel on our own and contacted hotels.com for a refund. When I called to ask the owner to clarify the situation with hotels.com, I was interrupted and hung up on. Then he forced me to listen to a lengthy explanation about how his booking system works. Very very poor customer service. It's a shame because we would have liked to have had a good experience, the hotel facilities seemed nice.

Comfortable stay
Stayed here on our way back to Windhoek. The Guest House is located in a suburban area not far from some decent restaurant and it has secure parking. The owners were very helpful. The rooms were average but comfortable and the breakfast in the morning was a mix of continental and cooked to order which was cooked perfectly.

good stop over
An okey place to break up the drive in between destinations, it has all the basics and the couple running the place is very friendly but it's basic.
