Nie aan ons verwagtinge voldoen nie.

Dit was nie ons eerste besoek by Karoowerf nie en ons vorige verblyf was altyd baie goed. Die diens was ook baie goed en daar is moeite gedoen. Die kamer was goed, maar die kombuis was piepklein, selfs die yskasdeur sukkel om toe te maak a.g.v. spasie. Die grootste probleem was egter die stort. Ten spyte van aanwysings was albei aande se storte of yskoud of so warm dat dit gevaarlik is. Die dubbelbed en die enkelbed raas ook geweldig baie met die geringste beweging. Die beddegoed was heerlik.

Not meeting our expectations.

This was not our first visit to Karoowerf and our previous stays were always very good. The service was also very good and effort was made. The room was good, but the kitchen was tiny, even the fridge door had trouble closing due to space. The biggest problem though was the shower. Despite directions, both nights' showers were either freezing cold or dangerously hot. The double bed and the single bed also make a lot of noise with the slightest movement. The bedding was lovely.

Maar net gewoond en niks besonders.

Eenheid 6. Bed lekker gemaklik. TV verouderd en geen ontvangs. (decoder) werk nie. Hek sou gesluit gewees het in aand - glad nie gedoen nie, dus veiligheid nie juis op standaard nie. Kombuis opwasbak teen deur van eenheid - beknop. Badkamer kon met meer deeglikheid skoongemaak word, veral in hoeke en rante van stort en klomp miere op vloer.

Translate to English.

But just usual and nothing special.

Unit 6. Nice and comfortable bed. TV outdated and no reception. (decoder) does not work. Gate should have been locked in evening - not done at all, so security not exactly up to standard. Kitchen sink against door of unit - cramped. Bathroom could be cleaned with more thoroughness, especially in corners and ridges of shower and bunch of ants on floor.

Photos on Lekkerslaap's web far from what we found.

For value for the price, you probably can't expect better.

Teleurstellend vir die prys wat gevra word.

Kamer 1 kort baie opgraderings. Elektriese drade hang uit die dak waaraan die lig gekoppel is. Die stort werk maar net. Die kragproppe werk nie. Die staanlamp werk nie. Daar is buitelug stompies op die erf. Die waterbottel is vuil en die water is oud.

Translate to English.

Disappointing for the asking price.

Room 1 needs a lot of upgrades. Electrical wires hang from the roof to which the light is connected. The shower just works. The power plugs don't work. The floor lamp does not work. There are outdoor stumps on the yard. The water bottle is dirty and the water is old.

Lekker geslaap en doodstil daar.

Ja, alles was goed. Het eers 7nm daar aangekom en dit was geen probleem vir die gasheer. Moes volgende oggend weer 6vm ry, so dit was 'n vinnige oorslaap.

Slept well and dead quiet there.

Yes, everything was fine. Didn't get there until 7pm and it was no problem for the host. Had to drive again next morning at 6am, so it was a quick sleepover.

We had to overnight in Cradock. The facilities were very nice.

The host was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend KarooWerf to friends.

Lekker warm geslaap, genoeg komberse, elektriese komberse én verwarmers teen die winterkoue. Kamers ruim, genoeg plek vir ons tasse. Ons hond was ook welkom.

Daar was battery-ligte vir die tyd wat dit beurtkrag was. Dit sou lekker wees as wifi ook beskikbaar was tydens beurtkrag.

Slept nice and warm, enough blankets, electric blankets and heaters against the winter cold. Rooms spacious, enough space for our bags. Our dog was also welcome.

There were battery lights for the time it was load shedding. It would be nice if wifi was also available during load shedding.

Lekker Karoo-huis naby food festival aktiwiteite en museums en restaurante.

Lekker Karoo-huis. Houtvloere, hoë ceiling. Lekker stoep en braai-kuierarea. Mooi tuin, WiFi en TV. Vriendelike ontvangs, kry inligting wat jy nodig het.

Uiters teleurstellend.

'n Verotte tuinbankie, vuil braaigeriewe sonder braaigereedskap, 'n handwasbak wat mors, beknopte spasie in die kombuis reg agter die buitedeur. 'n Gebreekte gloeilamp en blinders sonder toutjies. Basies is die instandhouding maande agter.

Extremely disappointing.

A rotten garden bench, dirty barbecue facilities without barbecue tools, a hand sink that spills, cramped space in the kitchen right behind the outside door. A broken bulb and blinds without strings. Basically the maintenance is months behind.

Enigste instelling wat troeteldiere toegelaat het.

Ons was ongelukkig vir net een aand daar. Het rustig geslaap in 'n lekker skoon bed. Alles was daar wat ons nodig gehad het. Vriendelike en besorgde gasheer.

Verblyf naby Bergsebrapark.

Ons het by KarooWerf bespreek maar is teen dieselfde koste in De Oude Pastorie ingeboek. Ons het 'n keuse gehad. Ons kan dus geen kommentaar op KarooWerf gee nie. Kommentaar hierin geld vir De Oude Pastorie.

Accommodation near Mountain Zebra Park.

We booked at KarooWerf but were booked into De Oude Pastorie at the same cost. We had a choice. We therefore cannot comment on KarooWerf. Comments herein apply to De Oude Pastorie.
