Dear Herman. Thank you for your review!
The Karoo is known for mosquitoes as soon as it starts getting warmer.
Our town is surrounded by the Sundays river and with the recent rain I suppose it may have been worse on the night you stayed here. We were so grateful for the mm we had since we have been in a drought for 8 years but I guess it certainly has it's disadvantages as well. We look forward to seeing you next time!

Dear Fernando
Thank you for your feedback. All our rooms have DSTV as well as air-conditioning with the exception of the room you stayed in. Guests usually book this room when they just need to stay over, hence the price which is almost half the rate of our other units. A description of the room you reserved is also on the website.
We do hope that you will consider booking another room with us in the future.

Ideal location, room and bathroom very neat and clean with all necessary facilities, friendly service, safe parking, value for money.
We were three people who spent one night in Garnaat Kamer. The room was big enough and the bathroom very large with a bath and a shower. The bathroom was not en suite as indicated on the sheet, but it was still a private bathroom just for our use. The guest house is ideally located and we had fast, friendly service. Everything was very clean and tidy. Our car was safely parked inside at no extra cost, which we only had to book in advance. Absolute value for money, and we would definitely recommend @ Karoo Guesthouse.

Disappointing.
The receptionist was very friendly and helpful, unfortunately that was our only good experience. On arrival we wanted to know where we could park, we were then informed that one has to arrange in advance for safe parking otherwise one has to park in the street in front, but luckily the receptionist was able to help us with parking behind a locked gate. We didn't get the room we requested and my wife and I then had to sleep on separate single beds. The sheets were stained and the room was dirty, not swept or dusted regularly. There was also a motorcycle rally across the street, our room was facing the street and the motorcycles and their owners were making noise from the time we got there until we left. The room door handle was broken and looked very untidy and unsafe. The shower door was also broken and came off every time the shower door opened or closed. After a long drive it had not been a nice experience and we decided never to sleep over there again. There is a lot of potential and with a little attention I'm sure other people won't have the same bad experience.

@ Karoo Guesthouse 's response
Good morning Johane,
Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us. The room you booked is not in our control. I understand that perhaps your originally inquired about a room with a double bed but an alternative was sent to you since the other rooms were unfortunately reserved. Accepting the quote and booking can only be done prior to your arrival. We did not change the reservation on our end.
I am baffled as to why you found the room dirty, this is the first time anyone has ever complained to us about that. Our linen is new and after double checking all our sheets and covers, I still have not found anything with a stain on it. As far as the noise coming from a motorbike at another establishment across the road, I wish you had mentioned it at the time since we would have called the owner and made them aware of the fact that it was disturbing you.
We have taken care of the handle on the door but I cannot understand why you would feel unsafe due to the fact that it was a little loose. There is a Yale lock on that door as well making that door secure and safe.
We do hope that you enjoyed our beautiful town and that you will return someday.
Kind regards,
Landie
