10/10 Exceptional

it was so nice to finally find a firstclass hotel in a quiet, bucolic setting away from all the noise and bustle of a major city centre. the staff even more friendly, i felt that i was being spoiled by each and every one. sarah handled the check in and made me feel right at home. ana made the breakfast and it was one of the best omelettes i ever had. that's saying a lot, since i'm so very picky. but the turn down service was the bomb. i was almost brought to tears, as i saw the hot water bottle in my bed, just like my great grandma roth used to do when i spent nights with her. she has since passed 15 yrs ago, but her memory still vividly lives on. thank you for this small detail, but as i told susan, the proprietor, it was the small details that really made a difference and set this guest house apart from any other. i dare you to find any hotel in this day and age that provides a hot water bottle for the turn down service in the evening. just a wonderful setting with a moroccan flare and an eclectic aesthetic that is very homey and pleasing to the soul.

6/10 Good

Room for improvement on facilities
When the front door of the guesthouse is locked in the evening you need to walk around the house to your room and it is dark and there is no light at all. Area also not in a condition to roll your suitcase on the wheels, you have to carry it. Wifi not good.

Wonderful staff and lovely guest house
I had a lovely stay at the wonderful Gooseberry Guest House. The rooms were of a very high standard and very comfortable. The staff were so caring like a family. There was nothing that was ever too much for them and made my stay away from home really wonderful. I will definitely be going back.

Hard to locate. Should consider airport shuttle
Though the place is ok, no meals are served for lunch and dinner making it difficult for someone who is not prepared to go out in search of food

Absolutely Wonderful!
I received a warm greeting upon arrival, with very helpful staff. The gardens are so lovely, and the beautiful swimming pool. The establishment exudes warmth and elegance. There is even a salon on the premises where I could have my nails done and a pedicure. The breakfasts are something to look forward to, absolutely delicious! Susan, the hostess is so very lovely - I so enjoyed my stay! I can't wait to return! I highly recommend 5th Avenue Gooseberry to everyone!

We had a wonderful stay!
We spent 2 nights here in Sept 2012. The owner looked up all the destinations/activities we wanted to visit and provided us with printed driving instructions and maps. The included breakfasts provided lots of options, including fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, juice, coffee, tea, toast, etc. Of course, the included hot breakfast was cooked to order and included eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, etc. Included in our room was free sherry and chocolates. The furnishings were comfortable and the bed enabled a good night's sleep. The neighborhood is safe, and there are restaurants and stores within three blocks.
