Redelik teleurstellend. Daar is 'n gebrek aan aandag aan detail.

1. Die kantgordyne is op 'n paar plekke al geskeur soos dit deur die son gebrand is. 2. Die badkamerkassie het nie rakkies nie. 3. Die matras is deurgeslaap. 4. Die vloer was steeds vuil nadat dit gediens is. 5. Die bedlampies se gloeilampe verskil. Die een is "warm white", die ander een is "cool white". 6. Die klerekas se deur kan nie toemaak nie, dit druk vas teen die klerehangers. 7. 'n Selfsorgeenheid behoort 'n pan te hê. 8. Die bedkassies se onderste deurtjies se kettings wat dit vashou, is stukkend.

Pretty disappointing. There is a lack of attention to detail.

1. The lace curtains are already torn in a few places as they were burnt by the sun. 2. The bathroom cabinet has no shelves. 3. The mattress was slept through. 4. The floor was still dirty after it was serviced. 5. The bedside lamps' bulbs are different. One is "warm white", the other is "cool white". 6. The wardrobe door cannot close, it presses against the clothes hangers. 7. A self-catering unit should have a pan. 8. The chains that hold the lower doors of the bedside tables are broken.

Overall good.

The accommodation was good. However, there were pots and pans available, but no stove top or hotplate to use the pots. Only a microwave oven in which a person could not use the microwave.

Northgate Lodge 's response

Good morning Mariza

We apologise for the inconvenience caused. We do keep stoves on hand in our storeroom for safety reasons, and we regret that we did not offer one as per our custom. We hope that you weren't too inconvenienced and enjoyed the rest of your stay with us!

Kind regards

Ideaal geleë.

Alles was honderd. Net baie spinnerakke in die kombuiskaste en kombuisarea.

Gemiddeld.

Die toilet in die een badkamer het vreeslik gelek, so ons kon daardie toilet glad nie gebruik nie want as ons hom druk dan spoel die hele vloer vol water. Die eenheid was nie baie skoon nie. Die gras van die grasdak het orals in die wasbakke en op die vloer gelê wat wys dat die eenheid nie skoon gemaak was voor ons in gekom het nie. Ons het vreeslik lank vir diens gewag by die reception, ons moes later die werker wat na die beeste kyk vra vir hulp. Met load shedding werk net die ligte, geen waaier of aircon werk nie - eenheid is baie warm.

Average.

The toilet in one bathroom leaked terribly, so we couldn't use that toilet at all because if we press it, the whole floor is full of water. The unit was not very clean. The grass from the thatched roof was everywhere in the sinks and on the floor showing that the unit had not been cleaned before we entered. We waited an awful long time for service at the reception, we later had to ask the worker who looks after the cattle for help. With load shedding only the lights work, no fan or aircon works - unit is very hot.

Overnight Business Travel.

Very nice setting, green and well kept gardens. Unfortunately, the experience was let down by two things: Self Catering as advertised - A steel frying pan and cooking pot are provided but nothing to cook on. No stove/hob or even a two plate stove. The only means of heating was a microwave oven. (Thankfully I travel with my own gas bottle and cooker top). Load shedding - 1 candle provided with no matches. Load shedding has been with us for years now so it is not acceptable that a guest facility not provide some basic form of back-up lighting, if not a standby generator.

Northgate Lodge 's response

Good afternoon Mark,
Matches and 2-plate stoves are available on request. We do not keep these items in the rooms for security and safety purposes. Yet when you called requesting matches, you declined as you explained you have your own lighting. We also explained that we are in the process of connecting our rooms to a solar system. We are aware of load shedding and the repercussions it causes and we strive to keep our customers satisfied. Your complaint about the 2-plate stove is confusing since this has not been your first stay with us. Regardless, we apologise for your unpleasant stay with us. Thank you for the compliment concerning our gardens.

Heerlike stop op pad na die noorde van die Kruger.

Ons gesin het vir twee aande by Northgate Lodge oornag. Die huisies is goed toegerus, en die braai-area kyk uit oor die lieflike gras en groot swembad. Ons sal die lodge aanbeveel.

Great stop on the way to the north of the Kruger.

Our family stayed at Northgate Lodge for two nights. The cottages are well equipped, and the braai area overlooks the lovely grass and large swimming pool. We would recommend the lodge.

Baie gerieflik.

Ons het Northgate Lodge baie gerieflik gevind. Dis maklik om dit te bereik en is ideaal vir oorslaap na 'n mens se eindbestemming. Alles in die eenheid het ons verblyf vergemaklik en die tuin is pragtig. Ons sal definitief weer daar oornag indien ons moet reis na die noorde van ons land of selfs as ons ons buurland gaan besoek.

Very convenient.

We found Northgate Lodge very comfortable. It's easy to reach and is ideal for a stopover to one's final destination. Everything in the unit made our stay easy and the garden is beautiful. We will definitely spend the night there again if we have to travel to the north of our country or even if we are going to visit our neighboring country.

Nice, clean accommodation. Pleasant for 1 or 2 nights stay.

The room was clean, tidy and well equipped, I would suggest a bigger fridge as only bar fridge was available which was not expected. Northgate Lodge was a overnight stay on our way to holiday destination, so with only bar fridge, the freezer was not equipped to handle our meat. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Our 1st unit had a leaking roof and she gladly relocated us to another unit. Pool and braai area also seemed nice, we however opted for a night out at a place the owner recommended, glad we did. I would recommend as a one night stopover, maybe 2, but not longer.

Baie lekker gebly.

Baie lekker gebly, kombuisie kan dalk net bietjie upgrade. Sou graag 'n paar extra kombuis ware wou gehad het soos steak messe, nog potte en panne. Maar verder het ons baie lekker gebly en rustig geslaap.
