Will be back ! Location is close to the university and summerstrand. Great location. Real family rooms that have all you need - booked for a 3 nights stay could have been 3 weeks. Will recommend for anyone visiting PE

Algoa Gust House is lovely clean accommodation in PE with secure parking and scrumptious breakfast ;-). The rooms are well equipped and spacious. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back. Value for money.

Your claim that “Service was Poor” is outrageous. I would remind you that you arrived with your family to check into 3 of our rooms just after 9am. Our check-in times are clearly stated on your confirmation letter as being from 14h00 – 19h00. You will find this is also clearly stipulated on your chosen website of booking. Nonetheless, we...

I recently stayed at this family run B&B, which was delightful. The room was clean, compact with all the necessary amenities, plus air conditioning. The hearty breakfasts were served in the charming dining room, which also offered an opportunity to meet and converse with other guests and share PE experiences, or dine quietly on your own.

Everything was excellent. Though it was raining but we really enjoyed our stay at the guest house. It is closed to most amenities we needed. The breakfast was good, we always wanted to wake up for the breakfast. I suggest that in future they also offer dinner so that if we decide to stay in the room for the day... More
