The history of the accommodation was very informative. Thank you very much. The stay was breathtakingly nice.

Die geskiedenis van die verblyf was heel insiggewend. Baie dankie. Verblyf was asemrowend lekker.

It was very interesting and enjoyable. We had a very nice overnight stay. Ate at their restaurant. Very friendly and good service and also affordable.

Dit was baie interessant en aangenaam. Ons het baie lekker oornag. Het by hul restaurant geëet. Baie vriendelik en goeie diens en ook bekostigbaar.

Spacious and neat overnight stop! Very nice overnight stop. The place is very spacious and clean. Nice space outside for children too. Was quiet and peaceful, despite it being New Year's Eve.

Ruim en netjiese oornag stop! Baie lekker oornag stop. Die plek is baie ruim en skoon. Lekker spasie ook buite vir kinders. Was stil en rustig, ten spyte daarvan dat dit oujaarsaand was.

Indescribable. After a very long drive from Witbank we arrived at the Old Jail and got to our accommodation without any hassle. They were very clean and the food was amazing. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Onbeskryflik. Na 'n baie lang pad van Witbank het ons by die Old Jail aangekom en sonder enige sukkel by ons verblyf gekom. Hulle was baie skoon en ongelooflike kos. Ek sal dit definitief aanbeveel vir enige iemand.

Historical place with a lot of meaning, unique experience. Very nice stay, was not noisy at all. It was just terribly hot that day, but luckily there was air conditioning which made it more bearable in the cell. It does make one think back with sympathy to the ABO prisoners who were locked up there without the care that modern travelers receive.

Historiese plek met baie betekenis, unieke ervaring. Baie lekker gebly, was glad nie raserig nie. Dit was net vrek warm die dag, maar gelukkig is daar lugversorging gewees wat dit meer draaglik gemaak het in die sel. Dit laat mens wel terugdink met meegevoel aan die ABO gevangenes wat daar opgesluit was sonder die versorging wat hedendaagse reisigers kry.
