Breakfast was excellent and stay was very comfortable. Would stay there again for business travel. Excellent value
Personal suuuper amable y acogedor. Habitaciones espaciosas y muy modernas, piscina y espacio exterior muy bonito. El desayuno genial y con amplia variedad.
Se fue la luz y no funcionaban los enchufes en la habitación (la encargada me dijo que no había pasado nunca y ofreció cambiar a otra habitación)
breakfast was big and tasty .
less option for non-beef or pork eaters
My driver stayed there for an Airport pick up. He was happy and the location is great.

Very accommodating, helpful and friendly staff - we ended up staying for 3 days as other travel plans changed due to unforeseen circumstances.

Everything
The location
It was not very clean. I had to ask for the toilet and kettle to be cleaned, and for the hair on the dressing table to be removed. There was also hair on the bedding. The outside patio in front of the two rooms was covered in dust and spider webs. The furniture also needs attention, as the shelves in the wardrobe fell down when I opened the cupboard.
all good , except that Breakfast can be improved by adding variety . I was there for about 4 days and variety would have been good
nothing in particular
No hot water on the first night. Extremely noisy in the evening on the first night, partying. Unable to sleep: Aircon in my unit smelt funny when used Second day of breakfast the same Yoghurt container was used that I did not finish on the first days breakfast?? Stayed here before and the service etc was much better than this stay
The property was clean and well maintained. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable. The breakfast was good.
I was unable to contact the facility from the airport as the number given to me by booking.com was not working. Repeated emails to the property were not answered. This caused me great difficulty as I needed to get to the facility. There is no free shuttle to and from airport and this was not made clear when the booking was made.
Everything was subpar..They even allowed me to overstay and not charge a single cent extra..Breakfast was deliciously made out of love,Victoria and her husband were friendly,I arrived late around 1am ,they didn't mind that it was beyond check in time and still made me feel at home,they were patient with me. I'm definitely booking there again..It was so clean and beautiful 😍
There's nothing I'd change about the place..
L'accueil des propriétaires, la propreté, la cuisine, la vaisselle et la salle à manger à disposition. Sans oublier Netflix. C'est un endroit agréable.

I had a great stay at Woodpecker's Inn. The owners were very friendly and the room was spotless.
The people
All good
The room was clean
It took longer for the owner to open
Sind erst um 22 Uhr gelandet uns waren nach 23 Uhr im Gäste Haus. Sind trotzdem sehr nett und offen empfangen worden.

Every thing
Nothing
Victoria é realmente muito simpática, prestativa e me fez sentir em casa. O quarto é bonito, confortável, com aquecedor e roupas de cama e banho muito limpas e cheirosas. O café da manhã é muito bom e farto. Infelizmente fiquei uma noite de escala entre voos apenas pois o lugar parece muito agradável e não pude aproveitar.
A comunicação prévia à chegada para agendamento do transfer e confirmação de detalhes não funcionou tão bem.
Location safe and secured
Improved breakfast
Close to everything
Great rooms
The owners were very kind. The breakfast was good and big. The area is okay, and the Woodbridge Centre is nearby, where you can find shopping centers, restaurants, banks, ATMs, and a fuel station. My room had a fridge, water kettle, and always-full box of tea, coffee, milk, etc. The Wi-Fi was excellent, the bed was very good, and the apartment was always clean. Next to the pool, there is a small boma; it is a good place to chill and work. Just a note for new guests: because the Guest House is near JNB Airport, sometimes you can hear the landing planes!
Staff was friendly
Furniture is old and uncomfortable. Acoustics are exceptional - you can hear everything happening in the corridor (and even in the dining room). The sliding door between the bedroom and a toilet doesn’t close properly.
The one night stay was very pleasant as the room was clean, the bed was very comfortable and the hosts Andrew and Victoria were very friendly
The toilet paper holder in the bathroom could've been higher on the wall
Staff and owners were very welcoming. The location is safe, and a few mins walk to a mall. Breakfast was also great, and the facilities are well managed and clean

It was all good.
Service
Accomodation
The staff was friendly and rooms were comfortable.
I booked on the 4th June to check in 17th and check out 18th June. Then check in on my return on 4th July and check out 5th July. Both instances my bookings were mixed up and I was told there was no space and had to be sent to the Nightingale bed and breakfast. This is totally unacceptable by the hosts and such a huge inconvenience to guests. Can they please work on getting their bookings right
As above
The breakfast was well prepared and the place was secure.
All services were up to my expectation
Very clean, great breakfast and welcoming hosts...
It would be nice to have electric blankets for winter, the hosts should make a future plan😊...
The owners were very forthcoming and accommodating. A vegetarian breakfast was prepared for me and I could check out later at no additional charge. All in all, great value for money and located very close to OR Tambo International Airport.
The rooms are not soundproof and it gets a little noisy at night and in the morning.
Excellent place to stay in Johannesburg, very clean, cozy and with kind people managing it!
All above and the host/owner was very helpful, friendly. Response time almost immediately. Really tried his utmost best to serve us all we needed. Thank you so much!
Only thing is: The specific guest house didn't match up with the pictures. We would strongly advise that the new owner update the pictures on booking.com
It felt like a home away from home. A lovely quiet street. Hosts were great people and easy to talk to. Bed was very comfortable. Although there was no water for a little time due to a burst pipe down the road, the hosts made a plan.
The rooms are very close to each other and the sound travels through the walls. Host's children are noisy and we experienced yelling kids at 10pm at night. Cute kids, but not exactly what we were looking for. Breakfast was too simple for us and I think the cook needs to brush up on how to make scrambled eggs look appetizing.
Very friendly and accommodating staff. Comfortable room. Tasty breakfast.
A few loud airplanes (under a flightpath)
The staff were very friendly and the place was very clean
Nothing
Really great place with the most wonderfully comfortable bed close to the airport. The hosts are really lovely people who checked in with me to make sure I was safe. The breakfast is amazing. They arranged a driver to pick me up from the airport which was perfect after a long flight.
I can't think of anything I didn't like. Be aware that it is a house and the rooms are not soundproof - it's not a loud house though and it didn't bother me
Clean with friendly staff
