"Olive Grove review"
1 night Arrived 4 Nov 2014
"Room & bathroom were quite nice, but the bare concrete floors were rather unwelcome. The receptionist was very helpful.
We were a bit surprised when they wanted to close the lounge area by 9pm, stopping any use of the computer. Breakfast was fine if unremarkable. Overall, a pleasant but not exceptional B&B." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia; 4n in Botswana
