“Red Apple Guest House offers rooms that can be clean and relatively spacious, a plus for budget-conscious travellers. A comfortable bed and powerful shower also stood out. I note the location is acceptable for those simply needing a base in Pretoria, although the overall experience appears inconsistent.”
