Rustig, skoon en netjies.

Die eienaars was baie vriendelik. Die omgewing was lekker stil en daar was sonkrag, so beurtkrag het nie te veel gepla nie.

The owners were very friendly. The environment was nice and quiet and there was solar power, so load shedding wasn't too much of a problem.

'n Goeie blyplek vir die sakereisiger.

As ek vooraf geweet het dat hulle nie betaalkaartfasiliteite het nie, sou ek nie daar bespreek het nie. Dit is swak kliëntediens om mense te verplig om kontantbetaling of bankoorplasings te doen.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

A good place to stay for the business traveller.

If I had known in advance that they don't have payment card facilities, I wouldn't have booked there. It is poor customer service to force people to make cash payment or bank transfers.

Rustige verblyf, perfek vir die sakereisiger.

Die kamers is netjies versier en die fasiliteite is in goeie kondisie. Die stoep kyk uit oor 'n wildskamp waar jy miskien iets kan raaksien. Die area is baie stil en rustig. Ontbyt is 'n gesonde porsie wat die moeite werd is. Elke dag was daar vars water in die yskassie geplaas en ook 'n vars melkie. Beslis die moeite werd.

Quiet accommodation, perfect for the business traveller.

The rooms are neatly decorated and the facilities are in good condition. The porch overlooks a game camp where you might spot something. The area is very quiet and peaceful. Breakfast is a healthy portion that is worth it. Every day there was fresh water in the bar fridge and also a fresh milk. Definitely worth it.

Teleurgesteld.

Foto's op die webwerf en werklikheid verskil hemelsbreed. Tuin in 'n baie swak toestand en dit skep alles behalwe die indruk van 'n gastehuis. Kinders se speelgoed lê rond en swembad in 'n baie swak kondisie. Lyk eerder soos 'n privaat woning as 'n gastehuis.

Disappointed

Photos on the site and reality are quite different. Garden in very poor condition and it creates everything but the impression of a guesthouse. Children's toys lie around and pool in very poor condition. Rather looks like a private home than a guesthouse.
