Good.

Very nice place. Just one thing. With the amount of water problems in South Africa, the shower must be fixed. Cannot run the shower for 10 minutes to get warm water. That is a lot of water wasted.

Ons het basies net daar geslaap, die kamer was netjies, en die mense was vriendelik.

Die TV-opvangs was baie sleg, ek kon net SABC2 ontvang.

Swak diens, plek is verwaarloos.

Water skade in die badkamer, handdoeke was stukkend daar was selde iemand by die ontvangs om te help, eerste kamer waarin ons geprop is se deure kon nie sluit nie. Min en moeilike parkering.

Poor service, place is neglected.

Water damage in the bathroom, towels were broken, there was rarely anyone at the reception to help, the doors of the first room we were stuffed into could not close. Few and difficult parking.

Baie netjies en bekostigbaar, kan dalk verbeter met 'n veiligheidshek voor glasdeur, was nogals ongemaklik met loadshedding die aand en kan nie met oop glasdeur slaap. Let wel daar is geen ander vensters nie, slegs skuifdeur. Verder baie rustig en heerlik gekuier. Sal beslis weer daar tuisgaan.

Het dorp besoek om begrafnis by te woon. Die koffie is heerlik wat in kamer gesit is. Net jammer 3 koffies vir 2 gaste en geen tee, maar kon darem elk koffie drink voor slaaptyd.

Translate to English.

Very neat and affordable, could perhaps improve with a security gate in front of the glass door, was quite uncomfortable with loadshedding in the evening and can't sleep with the glass door open. Note there are no other windows, only sliding doors. Furthermore, a very peaceful and wonderful visit. Will definitely stay there again.

Visited town to attend funeral. The coffee is delicious which is put in room. Just a pity 3 coffees for 2 guests and no tea, but at least everyone could drink coffee before bed.

Die eienaar was vriendelik en behulpsaam. Daar was net een handdoek vir ons twee maar hy het nog een gebring nadat ek gevra het.

Beslis nie enigsins luuks nie. Geen Jacuzzi. Geen internet. Slegs 'n kamer. Gordyne in haglike toestand. Krag af van 20h00-22h00 - nie Eskom se toedoen nie. Ek persoonlik dink die eiendom word verkeerdelik beskryf.

The owner was friendly and helpful. There was only one towel for the two of us but he brought another after I asked.

Definitely not luxurious at all. No Jacuzzi. No internet. Only a room. Curtains in terrible condition. Power off from 20h00-22h00 - not Eskom's doing. I personally think the property is described incorrectly.

Netjies, maar ongemaklik.

Gaste het heelnag musiek gemaak in die eetsaal tot omtrent 03:00 die volgende oggend - eienaar/bestuurder moes dit aanspreek. Bed slaap baie ongemaklik en raas. Baie beperkte kanale op die TV, moes dit so spesifiseer op die informasie van die gastehuis. Water vat vreeslik lank om warm te word in die stort.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Neat, but uncomfortable.

Guests were making music in the dining room all night until about 3am the next morning - owner/manager had to address this. Bed sleeps very uncomfortable and noisy. Very limited channels on the TV, had to specify this on the information of the guest house. Water takes an awful long time to warm up in the shower.
