Ada’s place is very clean, comfortable and secure. This is the second time we have stayed and we hope to return again when we visit family in Linbro Park. The gardens and swimming pool area is very pleasant and we enjoyed using the outdoor gym equipment.

Spacious 4-bedroom home

DimphoRating, 5 stars6 months ago

The house was fantastic for our stay. The pictures represent the location exactly. Anastasia is a fantastic host. Although at times I felt like I was asking too much questions, but her kindness and willingness to help us made me feel delightful. Her response speed was also beyond my expectations. She made sure we got settled in well during our visit and continued to wish us well as we left. Without a doubt, making another reservation.

Spacious stay-in 1bedroom apartment

VishyRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Good location 20 minutes Uber ride from Airport. Host is very responsive and helpful. Was very flexible with our check-in and check-out as the Airlines kept delaying our flight. This apartment we originally checked in had a bad chemical smell. Apparently the maid had sprayed too much bugs repellant everywhere. We were switched to another apartment (smaller, brighter and non smelly) in the same complex. Vukosi’s husband brought us a fan on our request. The house had all the amenities.

Absolutely loved our stay at Angie's house. This Airbnb is fantastic – the house is so spacious and beautifully kept. The outside area was a real bonus, a lovely spot to relax and enjoy. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would definitely book again in a heartbeat!
