As soon as the mom saw the bedroom, she couldn't stop gushing, praising her son with cute nicknames.

At this point, the mom praised her son for his hard work and repeatedly told him how beautiful his place was. She told TikTok user @scelow_hlophe that the place resembled a hotel, jokingly saying she now understands why they don't want to visit home.
