Delicious. Anker Guesthouse is a real little cozy place where guests quickly become friends and dogs can play, a real Karoo farm place where the pool feels like you can just relax and swim. Thank you very much for your place.

Lekkerte. Anker Gastehuis is 'n regte klein knus plekkie waar gaste vinnig vriende word en honde kan baljaar, 'n regte Karoo plaas plekkie waar die swembad voel of jy net kan rus en swem. Baie dankie vir julle plekkie.

Nice guesthouse in Philippolis. Nice stay with fantastic service, good WiFi signal and a nice hot shower to wash off the Karoo dust.

Lekker gastehuis in Philippolis. Lekker gebly met fantastiese diens, goeie WiFi sein en lekker warm stort om die karoostof af te was.

Nice, with unfortunately a few negative things. The location of the guesthouse was nice and quiet. Unfortunately the stay was not so pleasant. The toilet leaked and the bathroom floor was wet all the time in the area, resulting in the walls already being damaged. The lack of curtains in the room we stayed in, 'Sunroom', meant that the room was brightly lit throughout the night and was not a restful sleeping experience. The pool was a big plus and my son and I really enjoyed cooling off.

Lekker, met ongelukkig 'n paar negatiewe dinge. Die ligging van die gastehuis was lekker en stil. Ongelukkig was die verblyf nie so aangenaam nie. Die toilet het gelek en die badkamer vloer was heeltyd nat in die area, met die gevolg dat die mure al skade het. Die gebrek aan gordyne in die kamer wat ons gebly het, 'Sunroom', het veroorsaak dat die kamer helder verlig is deur die nag en nie 'n rustige slaapervaring was nie. Die swembad was 'n groot pluspunt en my seun en ek het die afkoel baie geniet.

Comfortable and peaceful. This was a cozy little home away from home. The children loved it too.

Very nice. Was a nice place. Would recommend that they either get bigger fans or air conditioning. It's very hot in the room. Would also be nice if they maybe provided water in the fridge. Even if it's just one bottle. Other than that, the service was perfect!

Baie lekker. Was 'n oulike plekkie. Sal graag aanbeveel dat hulle of groter waaiers kry of lugversorging. Dis baie warm in die kamer. Sal ook oulik wees as hulle dalk water in die yskas verskaf. Al is dit een botteltjie. Verder was die diens perfek!

Very pleasant. Had a great night's sleep. Reception from guest was not very welcoming and/or friendly at all, but considering it was a Sunday afternoon and people are probably tired. We were also not informed what the Wi-Fi password was, couldn't see in the room where it might have been written down on a table on a note.

Heel aangenaam. Heerlik oor geslaap. Ontvangs van gas was glad nie baie verwelkomend en/of vriendelik nie, maar in ag geneem dit was 'n Sondagmiddag en mense is seker maar moeg. Ons was ook nie ingelig wat die Wi-Fi wagwoord was nie, kon nie in die kamer sien waar dit dalk op 'n tafel op 'n nota neergeskryf was nie.
