16 March 2010 Musa would recommend this property

Liked: The property is very secure, I have been in many places but I never met friendly staff like HostelBookers staff, to be honest initially I was doubting but as soon as I entered the building I felt home, I felt more secured and free. I wish HostelBookers management can call it home. because it is home. I was in Pretoria for conference but I tell people more about HostelBookers. In one word, HostelBookers is AWESOME,
