JoBurg seemed like an unsafe place, but Terrylin's was like a nice oasis amidst all of the turmoil that the city has. Steven and Joy were very kind and helpful. Steven drove us around when we needed food and really went the extra mile to make my stay enjoyable. The rooms were very clean and the bathrooms were exceptionally nice... More

We were traveling across southern Africa and flew in JoBurg from Windhoek hoping for a pleasant and safe night before our next day return flight to the States. We had heard some shady stories about JoBurg while in Cape Town and southern Africa, but right away as we entered the guest house we were greeted by Steven. He was very... More

I stayed at Terrylin twice during my stay in South Africa and it's a strange place. It's very close to the airport, the rooms are clean (but weirdly decorated) and if you don't mind sleeping under a thick blanket with no sheets that might not get washed from person to person, you might like it.

I found Terrylin on the Internet in Johannesburg Airport looking for a place to stay. When I called to inquire about a room, Joy was very pleasant on the phone.

I arrived here with a group of friends at a very unsocial 6 am in the morning. We were greeted by the owners and shown our accommodation with no fuss. It wasn't long before I was sleeping peacefully after a long plane journey from the UK. Waking up a few hours later I was able to have a lovely bath.... More

We arrived early morning after 20hrs of travel from UK and were welcomed with welcomed arms. Joy and Steve were great and very helpful. Nothing was too much and there were such a warm homely feeling. We also stayed at the end of our holiday in the area and it was like coming back to old friends. Rooms were very... More
