I booked this guesthouse on another website for bookings. I was attracted by what I saw being advertised especially the furnishing and mini gym. Upon arrival at the advertised address on Klaserie street, I was directed to another location at Pongola street. Being a lone female traveller I felt uneasy at the gate because the intercom seemed not to be working and the location looked a bit unsafe.
Upon checking in, everything was just not satisfactory except the breakfast which was enough, well presented and delicious.
The staff were also very friendly and welcoming.
I struggled with the gate remote control and I think it's because the place was still under construction. I was not impressed at all.

Disappointed

Phetshile is situated in a relatively upmarket suburb in Middelburg. It is clean and quiet and I have no complaints.
I got the impression, though, that it was relatively new, with some of the little niceties normally found in established guesthouses not being observed. 
For example, the hostess didn't ever introduce herself to me, as a result, I don't know her name and I don't think she knew mine. 
At breakfast, her little son wandered around the dining area while getting ready for pre-school and would stand at a guest's table and stare at them. I have no problem with it, but when it happens every morning, it becomes a little annoying.
The bedroom was immaculately clean, but again little things that weren't quite right. There was an extension cord across the floor powering the bar fridge and the kettle, plonked on top of the fridge had to plugged into this extension when you wanted coffee or tea.
There was only a remote for the satellite TV decoder, but nothing for the TV itself. If the remote worked for both, there were no instructions telling guests how to work it.
The bathroom didn't have a plug for the basin and there was no mirror over the basin for shaving.
The ceiling trapdoor was missing, leaving a huge hole in the ceiling in the bathroom.
All in all, though, I had a pleasant stay and wish the owners all the best.
