“Garden Gate Guest House has a restful garden setting that makes it a real find in Port Elizabeth; I think its proximity to the airport and Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is a big plus. The shared kitchen gives you welcome flexibility, and I noted it's pet-friendly too. It's a comfortable, convenient choice.”
