Runell and her mother are great people, they try to make your stay as easy as possible. Great place to stay especially if you have just flown into Jo'burg or flying out the next morning b/c it is about 10 mins drive from the OR Tambo, and Runell will drive you and pick you up from there. When I was there, the hostel was overbooked and I had to stay in another guest house close by arranged by the Lakeview staff. Still, great service.
