Fantastic. Upgraded my room with no extra cost and of their own accord. Very comfortable and peaceful stay. Highly recommend Goblin's Mead. Will be back.

A one-night stay over before returning to Varsity the following day. My stay was absolutely perfect. I'd highly recommend Goblin's Mead to anyone.

Affordable and well located. Hostess is very helpful. Rooms in the house let sound through and are sometimes disturbing.

Bekostigbaar en goed geleë. Gasvrou is baie behulpsaam. Kamers in die huis laat klank deur en is soms steurend.

Dear Jeanette, thank you so much for your lovely 4.8/5 review and for your kind comments about our helpful hostess and the convenient location of Goblins Mead. We’re delighted that you found your stay affordable and enjoyable overall. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the sound between rooms. As Goblins Mead is a character-filled guesthouse rather than a large modern hotel, some sound transfer can occasionally occur between shared living spaces. We do, however, always strive to maintain a peaceful and respectful atmosphere for all guests. Thank you again for your valuable feedback and for choosing Goblins Mead. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Kindest regards, The Goblin Team

Good overnight stay for a business trip in the area. The place is clean, but quite old and in need of renovation. The bathroom has been nicely redone.

Goeie oornag vir besigheidstrip in die area. Die plekkie is skoon, maar wel redelik oud en kort opknapping. Die badkamer is mooi oorgedoen.

Dear Mariantha, thank you for your review and for choosing Goblins Mead during your business trip. We’re pleased that you found the guesthouse clean and comfortable, and that you enjoyed the newly renovated bathroom. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the age of the property. Goblins Mead is an older, character-filled guesthouse, and while we continuously renovate and improve different areas, we also try to retain some of its original charm and homely atmosphere. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. Kindest regards, The Goblin Team.

Satisfied with the room. Satisfied with the room and its privacy, except the kitchen was not clean in the morning, dirty dishes and no pot suitable to use.

Dear Christo, Thank you for your review and for your kind comments regarding the room and the privacy you experienced during your stay at Goblins Mead. We’re pleased that you were comfortable overall. We are however sorry that the communal kitchen was not as tidy as expected during the morning of your stay. As the kitchen and lounge areas are shared guest facilities, we do rely on guests to clean up after themselves between our scheduled servicing times. Unfortunately, if some guests do not do so late at night or early in the morning before staff arrive, the kitchen may occasionally not appear at its best. We do nevertheless appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving the guest experience wherever possible. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. Kindest regards, The Goblin Team

Excellent stay - some minor enhancements required. Safety and parking were excellent. The neighbourhood is very quiet, peaceful and ideal for relaxing. The establishment is within close proximity to shopping centres and main arterial routes. Overall, the stay was excellent and great value for money. The establishment could do better in ensuring more frequent towel changes, sweeping and cleaning, considering that it is an accommodation establishment and should be geared for the festive season and holidays.
