The place is laid back, cows on the road, uber not operational but it is possible to walk everywhere. There is urban houses and sort of rural infrastructure. It can be too hot, save to bring a sun hat. I had planned my trip, was kept sufficiently busy and I visited two families. will definitely do the trip again and will recommend to anyone who is adventures at heart.

We found Makhanda has just about all we need... shopping mall, ate at Spurs twice then wanting something a lil more spicy found the Thai/Chinese takeaway. It's not too busy, not too built up therefore pollution levels seemed low. The history of local people exposed. Rhodes university is a beautiful landmark for all to see.

The historical aspects were fascinating, especially the old Churches and cathedrals. These are largely untouched from the general significant decline in basic services. We were only there for a sporting event. Not sure it is a place we would consider a holiday destination.

Grahamstown has amazing old buildings and history. BUT the roads are a disaster !! Giant potholes everywhere and some of the roads you have to actually look for the tar that is left. The municipality should be ashamed. African road between 3 biggest private schools is abysmal

It is a town where one can shop around. The roads are so shocking, there are potholes everywhere and they are bad. I was so worried about my tyres. That is the only reason that would make me not to visit Grahamstown, roads are very bad.

The hosts are friendly and extremely accommodating of all our requests. The accommodation is spacious, clean and every possible detail thought of and provided for. The view from the deck is amazing! Walking out with delicious coffee, from the fully equipped kitchen, to see Grahamstown from above, surrounded by birdsong and greenery! Will definitely make this our go-to spot when visiting Grahamstown!

The house was homey and tidy, and we enjoyed our stay. The complementary coffee and rusks were also nice, and the gowns kept us warm as it was chilly in Grahamstown on those particular evenings. The guest house has borehole water, it is close to the Rhodes University campus and town.
