The rooms were modern and well equipped. The kitchen had the normal coffee station and to our surprise, rusks, muesli with milk and yoghurt in the fridge. The bathroom was spacious with everything you needed.

From
United Kingdom
We stayed at 79 on Ridge for a research visit at UKZN's PMB campus. The location was ideal - a short drive from campus and with excellent access to local shops and to the N3. The place itself is an oasis - a beautiful garden (with sweet dogs), comfortable and clean rooms, ample parking space and good security. Denzil and Gys are attentive hosts who went out of their way to accommodate our needs, but also did not intrude on our privacy. I'm sure we will be coming back on our next visit!

    Well because I wasn’t looking for luxury rather convenience, this place is near the UKZN golf road campus of which that is where I had the appointment at, however it is away from the town, I had to order in. I would recommend it for people who are visiting PMB for business, it is quiet, chilled and affordable.

    Excellent stay at 7 on Oakleigh. I travelled with my wife and small baby as I was riding the Amashova cycle race. Communication was great and access easy with safe off-street parking. The location was very quiet and removed from the city but with quick access to the city centre for the race - it is < 5min roll down the hill on the bicycle. The apartment we had was spacious, comfortable and clean, with an amazing shower.
