More than satisfied. This is a cosy little gem. I've fallen in love with the braai area.

Excellent value for money and I’d gladly stay here again. Highly recommended. We had a great experience during our stay. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was friendly, responsive, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The location was convenient, quiet, and felt safe — perfect for both work and rest.

Wonderful rest. What a wonderful place to stay with incredibly friendly and helpful people who welcome you and make sure you are comfortable. They go out of their way for you.

Wonderlike rus. Wat 'n wonderlike plek om oor te bly met verskriklike vriendelike en behulpsame mense wat jou ontvang en seker maak jy is gerieflik. Hulle gaan uit hul pad vir 'n mens.

Weak! In over 10 years of regularly using the website for accommodation nationwide, this is the worst customer service from a host, and definitely not value for money. They don't even put a bowl of ice in the freezer for you, or even just a bottle of cold water — it was 35° when we checked in. The place was dirty; I had to wipe the dog hair from previous guests' dogs myself and shake it off the bedding and chairs. The large room smelled of cigarette smoke. We are non-smokers, and the place is also advertised as non-smoking accommodation. The WiFi didn't work at all in the five days we were there. The drain overflows every time you shower, at the porch where you enter. There is an air conditioner shown in photo 15 of 18, top left corner, but there is no air conditioner. The fan above that double bed also only blows on one slow speed, no matter what speed it is set to. Not pleasant at all in the scorching heat! You also don't know where to leave the key on the day of check-out. These are things that should be discussed with guests in advance, and at least something small with the towels on the bed — like a flower or small chocolate — to make guests feel welcome. You are told the towels are in the cupboard; you can get them yourself. I cannot recommend Bonsai. I am used to much better standards at other accommodations on the website.

Swak! In meer as 10 jaar wat ek gereeld die webtuiste gebruik vir akkommodasie landswyd, is hierdie die swakste kliëntediens van ’n gasheer, en beslis nie waarde vir geld nie. Daar word nie eens ’n bakkie ys vir jou in die vrieskas gesit nie, of selfs net ’n botteltjie koue water nie — dit was 35° toe ons ingecheck het. Die plek was vuil; ek moes self die hondehare van vorige gaste se hond afvee en dit van die beddegoed en stoele afskud. Die groot kamer het na sigaretrook geruik. Ons is nie rokers nie, en die plek word ook geadverteer as nie-roker-akkommodasie. Die WiFi het glad nie gewerk in die vyf dae wat ons daar was nie. Die drein loop elke keer oor wanneer jy stort, by die stoep waar jy inkom. Daar word ’n lugversorger gewys op foto 15 van 18, links bo in die hoek, maar daar is geen lugversorger nie. Die waaier bo daardie dubbelbed waai ook net op een stadige spoed, maak nie saak op watter spoed dit gestel word nie. Glad nie plesierig in die erge hitte nie! Jy weet ook nie waar om die sleutel te los op die dag van uitboek nie. Dit is dinge wat vooraf met gaste bespreek behoort te word, en darem net iets kleins saam met die handdoeke op die bed — soos ’n blommetjie of klein sjokolade — om gaste welkom te laat voel. Daar word vir jou gesê die handdoeke is in die kas; jy kan dit self uithaal. Ek kan Bonsai nie aanbeveel nie. Ek is gewoond aan baie beter standaarde by ander verblyf op die webtuiste.

Nice and comfortable. What a nice place! We will definitely book here again if we are looking for accommodation in the area.

Lekker gemaklik. Wat 'n lekker plekkie! Ons sal definitief weer hier bespreek as ons opsoek is na verblyf in die omgewing.
