AmandaSouth AfricaNice view, but we weren’t ready for the uninvited guests in our room
Location. Easy check-in and check-out. View from the deck. Friendly host.
Rooms are way too cluttered and could use some modernising. Bats in our room.

Tranquil stay on the riverbank in Upington. Lovely pool, self catering facilities and plenty of off street parking. Gardens are lush and beautiful. Bird life abounds. Bring your binoculars.
