  • 4/5 Christie S. 3 years ago on Google
    My sister and I stayed at the Retro Room with Rose and Ale and had a wonderful time. It is walking distance from the beach and has a wonderful location. It was safe with electric fencing and a parking space. The apartment was bigger than expected, even if the bedrooms are somewhat small. The apartment is very private and neat. It was exceptionally clean and well-stocked in the kitchen. I would have loved to give Rose and Ale's Retro Room a 5/5 but for stays as long as I planned (and I expect I would stay even longer in the future) a washing machine would have been wonderful, especially as all the other amenities like drying racks and pins are provided.

    We stayed for three weeks in the Rose Cottage at Rose & Ale ... and had a great time! The cottage had everything we needed - it was super clean when we arrived and the staff was friendly and attentive. There is a bright swimming pool (which we didn't need as it is winter now) ... and the bonus: We had a small "braai" stand at our cottage ๐Ÿ˜. It's (a short) walking distance from Gonubie beach and also very close to the Super Spar for all your shopping needs. Thank you to the owners of Rose & Ale for a great stay (and introduction) to East London.

    The host Lynn went as far as putting my guests in a suitable room , I then had to book in a extra night last minute so she made arrangements for my guests to keep their current rooms and not be moved around , great service and neat rooms

    Most of the time I book with Rose and Ale at the last minute... Luckily they always had a spot for me, but they already know itโ€™s me phoning when I ask, โ€œdo you have a bed for me for tonightโ€ Clean, quiet, convenient, friendly (staff and guests) and affordable! Save their details, donโ€™t google further.

  • 4/5 Jessica B. 5 years ago on Google
    Nicely decorated, clean place. Love that they had so many extra towels in the cupboards just in case. Pet friendly garden was good, had nice high walls. One suggestion would be adding a heater for those cold nights. Overall a great place to stay.
