Reis met kinders en hond.

Ons was vriendelik ontvang deur die bestuurder. Die plek is skoon en netjies, lekker ruim, en daar is plek vir ons hond. Ongelukkig was daar net warm water vir een persoon, daarna het daar niks warm water uitgekom nie. Gelukkig was dit baie warm, en kon ons in koue water stort. Daar is veilige parkering agter geslote hekke. Die mure is dun, maar tog het ons lekker geslaap.

Traveling with children and dog.

We were kindly received by the manager. The place is clean and tidy, nice and spacious, and there is room for our dog. Unfortunately there was only hot water for one person, after that no hot water came out. Fortunately, it was very warm, and we were able to shower in cold water. There is secure parking behind locked gates. The walls are thin, but still we slept well.

Ons het die Gariepdam en omgewing kom besoek.

Paar waarnemings. Ons is in eenheid Riedier geplaas, nie Albatros waarvoor ons bespreek was nie. Badkamer was buitengewoon warm aangesien daar nie 'n venster of ventilasie waaier in is om te ventileer nie. Buitengewoon klein kas in slaapkamer met geen rakke nie, geen plek vir twee volwassenes se klere nie. Geen gordyn voor die kombuis se houtglasdeur nie, privaatheid word ingeboet. Weens swak isolasie in muur van hout wat tussen Riedier en Ting Tinkie direk langsaan is, word alle gesprekke en geluide van gaste langsaan maklik gehoor. Kombuis is ruim en gerieflik. Sal verblyf hier aanbeveel afhangende van mense se behoeftes.

We came to visit the Gariepdam and surroundings.

A few observations. We were placed in unit Riedier, not Albatros which we were booked for. Bathroom was unusually hot as there is no window or ventilation fan to ventilate. Extremely small closet in bedroom with no shelves, no room for two adults' clothes. No curtain in front of the kitchen's wooden glass door, privacy is compromised. Due to poor insulation in the wooden wall that is directly next door between Riedier and Ting Tinkie, all conversations and sounds of guests next door are easily heard. Kitchen is spacious and comfortable. Would recommend staying here depending on people's needs.

Ons 5 vriende het baie heerlik in Suikerbekkie gebly vir een aand.

Teen tienuur die aand het die mense oorkant 'n luidruchtige partytjie gehou, gedans en geskree, en ons kon nie slaap nie. Ek het vir die gasvrou laat weet, en sy het dadelik die probleem opgelos. Ons het daarna heerlik geslaap en het nooit onveilig gevoel nie. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het, was in "Suikerbekkie". Die lieflike storte was 'n groot bederf.

We slept great afterwards and never felt unsafe. Everything we needed was in "Sugar Bekki". The lovely showers were a great treat.

Baie skoon en netjiese, asook stil en veilige oornag akkommodasie. Aanbeveel.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, dit was skoon en netjies. Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang. Ons sou net graag wou hê daar moes meer voorsiening wees vir beurtkrag. Dis wonderlik dat daar 'n gasstofie en ketel is, net jammer daar was niks om dit mee aan te steek nie. Herlaaibare gloeilampe of twee of 'n lampie sou ook gehelp het.

We had a great stay, it was clean and tidy. We were received very kindly. We just wish there was more provision for load shedding. It's great that there is a gas stove and kettle, just a shame there was nothing to light it with. Rechargeable light bulbs or two or a light bulb would have helped too.

Good enough for one night, but will look somewhere else next time.

The place was relatively clean, but don't believe the pictures you see. We expected some double beds, but got 6 singles, which was fine because we were only staying one night. There is black mold on the roof in the one bathroom and in the passage. The outside furniture was dirty, and the wooden structure is falling apart. There seem to be a lot of different houses, so be careful which one you get. I assume at least one of them might look like the pictures, but the one we got definitely didn't.

Teleurstellend! Hopeloos oorprys, in 'n haglike woonbuurt. Lyk nie soos op die fotos nie.

Die advertensie van die blyplek is misleidend. Lyk buite glad nie soos op die fotos nie. Heeltemal oorprys vir dit wat mens kry. Behoort die helfte goedkoper te wees. Ek sal in my lewe nie weer daar bly nie. Die huise in die straat lyk haglik en dit het my onveilig laat voel. Die agent was onprofessioneel, baie gejaagd en wou net wegkom (vir seker bang ons begin kla). Syt ook 'n vuil hemp aangehad. Ek is skoon afgesit by Gariep.

Disappointing! Hopelessly overpriced, in a horrible neighborhood. Doesn't look like the photos.

The advertisement of the accommodation is misleading. Doesn't look at all like in the photos. Totally overpriced for what you get. Should be half the price. I will never stay there again in my life. The houses in the street look awful and it made me feel unsafe. The agent was unprofessional, very rushed and just wanted to get away (probably afraid we would start complaining). Also wearing a dirty shirt. I was dropped off cleanly at Gariep.

Skrikwekkende, onaangename ondervinding.

Hierdie was 'n aaklikge ondervinding. Daar was geen warm water nie. Daar het fisies geen water uit die krane gekom nie. Dit lyk ook glad nie soos die foto's nie. Geen tuin of plante, die grond is gehark en ongelyk. Die heel ergste is die onwettige inwoners (soos per die eienaar) oorkant die straat. Hulle het heelnag lawaai, bottels gebreek en tekere gegaan. Ons was 'n groep van 3 gesinne en het baie onveilig gevoel.

This was a horrible experience. There was no hot water. There was physically no water coming out of the taps. It also doesn't look like the photos at all. No garden or plants, the ground is raked and uneven. The very worst are the illegal residents (as per the owner) across the street. They made noise all night, broke bottles and went crazy. We were a group of 3 families and felt very unsafe.

Baie gerieflike plek om oor te slaap op pad Kaap toe. Eienaar was heel pad met ons in verbinding.

Ons het baie laat daar aangekom, Drikus was daar om ons te ontvang, alles baie mooi veduidelik, Dit was byna "loadsheading," hy het gou oopgemaak sodat ons nog 'n ketel kon koop. Die kamers is ruim en voorsien alles wat ons nodig gehad het. Na 'n lekker nag se rus was ons weer vroeg in die pad. Hierdie eenhede is aan te bevele vir enige oorslaap of selfs langer tyd.

Vyfster!

Die diens was uitsonderlik. Toe my reëlings onverwags verander het, het die personeel my gehelp om my bespreking 'n dag vroeër te skuif. Hulle vriendelikheid en bereidwilligheid om te help was opmerklik. Ek waardeer dit opreg en dit het my verblyfervaring nog aangenamer gemaak. Ek sal beslis hierdie slaapplek aanbeveel aan enigiemand wat 'n dierevriendelike en klantgerigte bestemming soek.

Absoluut beste keuse!

Drikus en Liesl is baie aangename eienaars en baie behulpsaam! Loerie eenheid is baie privaat en baie netjies. Kon ook 'n heerlike nagrus met lugversorging en waaiers geniet. Wasbak se kraan is wel bietjie ongemaklik en mors baie water op die tafelblad - vir gebruik of om skottelgoedjies te was. Ons woefie, Meisie, het dit ook baie geniet om 'n tuintjie met gras te hê. Sal beslis weer daar tuis gaan!

Drikus and Liesl are very pleasant owners and very helpful! Loerie unit is very private and very tidy. Could also enjoy a great night's rest with air conditioning and fans. The sink faucet is a bit uncomfortable and spills a lot of water on the table top - for use or to wash dishes. Our girl, Meisie, also really enjoyed having a little garden with grass. Will definitely stay there again!

Situated in Gariep residential area it is not much to look at from outside. But inside it was very clean, very comfortable and had all the facilities you require for an overnight stay.

Pragtig, netjies en baie vriendelik.

Die Loerie eenheid is baie privaat en definitif dierevreindelik met eie tuin. Die eenheid was pragtig skoon, netjies en baie goed toegerus. My ontvangs was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Kan die plekkie definitief aanbeveel.

Perfect for an overnight stay.

We stayed overnight for one night. The place was neat and tidy and had the basic essentials, as well as an air conditioner as it was very warm in Gariep Dam. No Wi-Fi or DStv, but this was ok as we arrived late and were tired anyway. The facility has secured parking. For the amount we paid, it was value for money staying there. Drikus, our host, was very friendly and helpful.

All we needed for an overnight stay, but a bit expensive for the final product received.

The hosts were incredible, friendly, and helpful. Nice touches like branded soaps and water were appreciated. The overnight stay was all we needed, and the accommodation was very clean. Sadly, the pictures make it look a lot better than it really is, and the price paid was not worth the quality of accommodation. The WiFi did not work and there was no hot water. However, there were no major complaints.

Acceptable.

Accommodation was sufficient and tidy for an overnight stay. Water regulation is something that needs to be looked at. The regulation varied from very strong, to a thin stream, to none, which meant you had to start the process all over again. Not a pleasant experience when you want to take a shower. Wish them well for their future plans.

Baie vriendelike ontvangs, maar alles is nog nie heeltemal op standaard nie.

Alles lyk op die oog af netjies en skoon. Daar is egter ruimte vir verbetering, bv. die vensters en stortdeurspoor. Daar was nie warm water nie - sonkraggeiser is skynbaar nie aan elektrisiteit gekoppel nie en dit was meestal bewolk deur die dag. Die eienaar het ons verseker dat dit veilig is, maar die lig wat op beweging werk het kort-kort deur die nag aangegaan, wat ons onrustig laat slaap het.

Very friendly reception, but everything is still not quite up to standard.

Everything looks neat and clean on the surface. However, there is room for improvement, e.g. the windows and shower door track. There was no hot water - solar geyser was apparently not connected to electricity and it was mostly cloudy during the day. The owner assured us that it was safe, but the motion-activated light went on intermittently throughout the night, causing us to sleep restlessly.

Laaste-oomblik bespreking op pad terug van die Kaap.

Badkamervertrek sluit toilet in sonder 'n deur en enige ventilasie. Geen ventilasie in eenheid, dus geen vensters wat na buite oopmaak nie. Baie mooi skoon, maar nou nie my "cup of tea" nie. Sal dit slegs aanbeveel as daar geen ander verblyf beskikbaar is nie.

Goeie dag, Elize
Die bespreking was gemaak vir ons "Mossie eenheid" met 2 Enkel beddens. Met aankoms was julle egter 3 persone, ek het vir julle die Mossie eenheid gewys asook Albatros eenheid wat n dubbel bed en n bedbank het vir die dogtertjie wat saam gekom het maar nie n bed bespreek is nie, teen geen ekstra kostes. Daar was ongelukkig nie n braai in die Albatros eenheid nie, maar ek het binne 5min wel vir julle n braai gebring wat julle gebruik het. Die klein dogtertjie het wel êrens onder haar voetjie n snytjie opgedoen êrens. Die volgende oggend was daar wel vuur warm water beskikbaar.

We were given a very nice unit, only problem and not your fault was the load shedding at 20:00 to 22:30 and again at 04:00- so we left at 4 am lucky we had already packed the car.

Voldoende geriewe vir oornag.

Kombuisopwasbak is 'n nagmerrie, hoogte van spieël in badkamer vir 6 voet reuse, 'n matjie wat absorbeer by ingang sal teëls skoon hou gedurende reënbuie. Buite-area (sement) seepglad wanneer nat, (pasop vir val), sou graag skuifdeur by slaapkamer wou oopmaak (geen sleutel). 'n Tafel in kombuis (in pleks van stoof) sou gehelp het - werksoppervlakte skaars! Maar beddegoed en matras, handdoeke alles 100%.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Sufficient facilities for overnight stays.

Kitchen sink is a nightmare, height of mirror in bathroom for 6 foot giants, an absorbent mat at entrance will keep tiles clean during rain showers. Outside area (cement) soapy when wet, (beware of falling), would like to open sliding door to bedroom (no key). A table in the kitchen (instead of a stove) would have helped - scarce work surface! But bedding and mattress, towels everything 100%.

Skoon met gemaklike beddens en lugversorging, maar dit is waar dit stop.

Kussings baie swak gehalte en handoeke is al dun van al die gebruik, een van die handoeke het selfs gate in gehad. Die tafel vertoon mooi op die foto nie, maar is redelik lendelam en die blad in die kombuis het brand merke op en is stukkend op plekke. Net omtrent dertig persent van die gaatjies in die stortkop werk. ’n Mens kan baie beter verblyf kry in die omgewing vir dieselfde prys en selfs minder.

Clean with comfortable beds and air conditioning, but that's where it stops.

Pillows very poor quality and towels are already thin from all the use, one of the towels even had holes in it. The table doesn't look good in the photo, but is quite limp and the top in the kitchen has burn marks and is broken in places. Only about thirty percent of the holes in the shower head work. One can get much better accommodation in the area for the same price and even less.

Safety is concern, especially if travelling with trailer with bikes on. Unit smelled like cigarette smoke, not all utensils available (braai, matches, corkscrew, etc).

Not really space for Venter trailer, but managed. Concern is safety (trailer with bikes on it). Unit smelled like cigarette smoke. Not all kitchen utensils. No matches, yet there is a lantern with oil. Shower head needs replacement.

This place was awful.

Firstly, it's called Angel's Lodge and not Angela's Lodge as per the website. Then there was limited security. Our cars were protected by a measly little padlock on a gate. The aircon did not work, probably why there was a fan to use. The toilet had no door, so there was no privacy. The toilet was an old damaged rubbish plastic unit that ran all night. The shower was in the bedroom and the door terribly warped. So, when one showered the water ran out onto the furniture and bed. The roof was cracked and broken. The old door to secure us was a rusted glass door that didn't lock properly. The bedding was stained. The sheets were stained with blood and the pillows and pillowcases with sweat. There were stickers from purchased clothing stuck on the cupboard doors, proof that the place had not been properly cleaned. The curtains were all different and falling off the rails which were falling out of the walls too. When loadshedding happened there was no water either as the pump for the borehole didn't work. The fridge was leaking water and this formed a puddle where the only multiplug to use for charging was lying in. A total hazard. It is disgusting that the owner thinks that they can charge what they did for this place when if you drive a little further up the road you can stay in a place that is compliant and safe. It's a pity that we booked too late. A very disappointing stay, we left the next morning at 4 am as we couldn't sleep. Awful experience.

Duur vir wat mens kry en waar jy bly.

Kliëntediens was OK, maar alhoewel ek presies gesê het hoe laat ons daar sal wees ure voor die tyd en weer 14 min voor ons arriveer het, moes ons wag vir iemand om ons in te check, die een gas het verkeerd geparkeer en dit was 'n gesukkel om ons sleepwa in die straat al af te hak en in te stoot. Die ligging van die akkommodasie, mens ry deur dele van Gariep wat mens onveilig laat voel. Die huise aan die ander kant van die straat lyk of dit deur plakkers beset word. Dis naby aan die restraurant, maar weereens nie paaie deur die beste dele van Gariep nie. Ek het nie veilig gevoel in die eenheid nie. Die eenheid was nie skoon nie, die bedkassielaaie het leë blikke in gehad en een laai het 'n paar ander items in gehad wat my laat gril het. Die shower is so moeilik om 'n konstante temperatuur te kry dat dit amper onmoontlik is om te stort. Die water is of vuurwarm, of yskoud of net weg. Die beddens was ook nie vreeslik gemaklik nie, maar ek het al op erger beddens geslaap. Net jammer die "aircon" het deur toe gewys en kon nie gedraai word om na die beddens toe te wys nie en dit was nogal 'n warm aand.

Expensive for what you get and where you live.

Customer service was OK but even though I said exactly what time we would be there hours ahead of time and again 14 min before we arrived we had to wait for someone to check us in, the one guest parked wrong and it was ' a struggle to cut and push our trailer down the street. The location of the accommodation, you drive through parts of Gariep that make you feel unsafe. The houses on the other side of the street look like they are occupied by squatters. It's close to the restraurant, but again not roads through the best parts of Gariep. I did not feel safe in the unit. The unit was not clean, the bedside drawers had empty cans in them and one drawer had some other items in it that made me cringe. The shower is so difficult to get a constant temperature that it is almost impossible to shower. The water is either blazing hot, or ice cold or just gone. The beds weren't terribly comfortable either, but I've slept on worse beds. Just a shame the "aircon" pointed to the door and couldn't be turned to point to the beds and it was quite a hot night.

Nare ondervinding, plek lyk definitief nie soos op die foto's nie. Ons het onveilig daar gevoel.

Die plekkie is outyds binne, badkamerteëls oud en lyk nie skoon nie. Die braaiplek is onnet en in 'n nou stegie, met geen uitkyk na buite nie. Braaier is vuil en geroes. Die omgewing was ook nie gunstig om in te bly nie. Klein hekkie langs groot hek kon nie sluit nie.

Bad experience, place definitely does not look like in the photos. We felt unsafe there.

The place is old fashioned inside, bathroom tiles old and doesn't look clean. The braai place is untidy and in a narrow alley, with no view outside. Grill is dirty and rusted. The environment was also not favorable to live in. Small gate next to big gate could not close.

Groot teleurstelling, geen waarde vir geld.

Eerste indruk wat kry van die plek is baie swak. 2 ou stukkende swart leerstoele by die voordeur. Die braairooster is so vuil, was nog nooit gewas nie. Die stortvloer is vol aanpaksels, jy wil nie eers daar stort nie. Die ketel is so dik van die kalk aangepak. 'n Venster of 2 kon oopgemaak gewees het voor gaste arriveer. Die plek het 'n bedompige reuk gehad. Die badkamermatjies is opgebruik. Geen waarde vir jou geld om daar te bly nie. Die swembad is 'n groot teleurstelling. Vertoon groot op foto's maar is piepklein. Sodra jy of jou bure die warm krane oopdraai raas die pype in die dak die heletyd.

Big disappointment, no value for money.

First impression that gets of the place is very poor. 2 old broken black leather chairs by the front door. The grill is so dirty, has never been washed. The shower floor is full of tacks, you don't even want to shower there. The boiler is so thick with lime. A window or 2 could have been opened before guests arrived. The place had a musty smell. The bathroom mats are used up. No value for your money to stay there. The pool is a huge disappointment. Appears large in photos but is tiny. As soon as you or your neighbors turn on the hot taps, the pipes in the roof make noise all the time.

Die foto's op die webtuiste gee glad nie 'n ware prentjie van hoe die plek regtig lyk nie.

Geen een van die borde, koppies of glase in die kombuiskassie pas bymekaar nie. Die wasbakkie in die kombuis is power, wanneer 'n mens die kraan oopdraai, loop helfte van die water buite die wasbak en drup op die grond. Die een badhanddoek het 'n reuse gat in gehad. Daar was muf tussen die teëls in die stort. Daar is geen manier om die stort te stel sodat 'n mens nie of verbrand, of verkluim nie. Die tarief van R800 per nag is definitief nie waarde vir geld nie.

The photos on the website do not give a true picture of what the place really looks like.

None of the plates, cups or glasses in the kitchen cupboard match. The sink in the kitchen is power, when you turn on the tap, half of the water runs out of the sink and drips on the ground. One bath towel had a huge hole in it. There was mold between the tiles in the shower. There is no way to set the shower so that one does not either burn or get cold. The rate of R800 per night is definitely not value for money.

Black mould in the bathrooms and on the lounge roof. Furnishings are hodge podge and uncomfortable. Electricity went out in the early mornings and did not come back on before we left. Subdivision of the property done with paper thin walls and offers little privacy.

Very over-priced.

The unit does not have a lot of natural lighting. The internal lights are dim and there's not much airflow through the unit. The windows are sealed shut with screws - for security purposes I assume. It was raining on the day we arrived. The pathway between the carport and the unit had pools of water which needed to be negotiated. The geyser and water system very noisy when the used by nextdoor unit. Overall not a nice feel.

Okay.

Good customer service and an okay stay. We feel that the linen is aged a little, the couches aren't in a good condition, and the noisiness at night from the next door rooms due to the only separation being drywall, caused some discomfort. The solar geysers are very noisy when the hot water taps are opened by any of the rooms. Otherwise we enjoyed our nights' stay and appreciated the aircon in each of the rooms.

Nie ten volle toegerus vir 4 gaste nie. Meubels in sitkamer afgeleef en skep nie 'n goeie beeld nie. Parkering nagmerrie met waentjie. Geen braaitang. Waterpype raas verskriklik en alle gaste is wakker as warm water oopgemaak word.

Sal vir seker aanbeveel as die water probleem uitgesorteer kan word.

Baie vriendelike ontvangs en flinke diens van Johan om ons te neem tot by die plekkie. Baie skoon, gerieflike kamer. Die enigste teleurstelling was die warm stort die aand. Die koue water het byna nie geloop as die krane oopgemaak is nie en die warm water wat na so minuut of so (soos verduidelik deur Johan en notas op die muur) kokend by die kraan uitspuit, maak dit so te sê onmoontlik om die stort water hitte te beheer. Nadat ons so te sê verbrand is, het ons maar net die aand gewas uit die wasbak.

Would definitely recommend if the water problem can be sorted out.

Very friendly reception and prompt service from Johan to take us to the place. Very clean, comfortable room. The only disappointment was the hot shower in the evening. The cold water almost didn't run when the taps were opened and the hot water that after a minute or so (as explained by Johan and notes on the wall) squirts boiling from the tap, makes it practically impossible to shower water control heat. After we were burned, so to speak, we only washed from the sink that evening.

In vergelyking met akkommodasie in Bloubergstrand en George is die tarief regtig belaglik duur.

Veiligheid baie swak, geen diefwering voor vensters aan voorkant wat beteken mens kan nie kamervenster oopmaak nie. Deurslotte by badkamer en kamer werk nie. Voorste skuifhek staan oop. Geen sekuriteit nie. Badkamer baie swak met geen pakplek of handdoekrelings.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Compared to accommodation in Bloubergstrand and George the rate is really ridiculously expensive.

Security very poor, no burglar bars in front of windows at the front which means you can't open a bedroom window. Door locks at bathroom and room do not work. Front sliding gate is open. No security. Bathroom very poor with no storage space or towel rails.

Very comfortable sleep. Value for money. Suitable accommodation for entire family of 6 and nephew.

Very comfortable overnight accommodation. The rooms were very neat and well equipped. We booked all 3 rooms, but stayed in 2 only. We were 4 adults, 1 teen and 2 children under 13. The host was very pleasant and accommodating. We arrived quite late in Gariep. Definite recommendation.

Duur vir blyplek wat sub-standaard is.

Arriveer by gastehuis ongeveer 17:00 en dit is moeilik om plek te vind. Die asblikke was nog vol van vorige huurders se rommel. Volgens webblad sou daar twee enkelbeddens wees en een dubbelbed, maar geen dubbelbed. Eetgerei nie voldoende vir 4 x persone nie. Net 2 messe, 3 vurke ens. Glase en borde nie genoeg asook ander kombuis gereedskap. Slegs klein slaai wasbakkie in sogenaamde "selfsorg" kombuisie. Miere was orals teenwoordig. Die eenheid waarin ons gebly het heet geen lugversorging gehad soos geadverteer nie, slegs dakwaaiers wat geraas en geswaai het aan die dak en dit het slaap moeilik gemaak. Ek sal definitief hierdie plek vermy in die toekoms en al die ander gaste waarmee ek gesels het, het presies dieselfde oor hierdie plek gevoel.

Expensive for accommodation that is sub-standard.

Arrive at guest house around 17:00 and it is difficult to find a place. The bins were still full of previous tenants' rubbish. According to website there would be two single beds and one double bed, but no double bed. Cutlery not sufficient for 4 x persons. Just 2 knives, 3 forks etc. Not enough glasses and plates as well as other kitchen tools. Only small salad sink in so-called "self-catering" kitchen. Ants were present everywhere. The unit we stayed in had no air conditioning as advertised, only ceiling fans that whirred and whirred on the roof and made sleeping difficult. I will definitely avoid this place in the future and all the other guests I talked to felt the exact same way about this place.

Sal dit aanbeveel as die sekuriteit opgeskerp word.

As die onderhoud op die plek gereeld gedoen word, sal die stort nie met stukkende teëls en deure gesit het nie. Was teleurgesteld met die stort waar daar 'n gebreekte teël was. Dit kon 'n ernstige besering veroorsaak het, en die stortdeur wil op jou val as dit oop- of toegemaak word. Dis een ding wat jy gewoonlik wil hê as 'n mens 'n ver pad gery het, om 'n lekker stort te vat en rustig te wees. Die sekuriteit is nie na wense nie, hekke word nie eers gesluit nie. Ons het vir Ronnie gevra of die hekke gesluit word, sy antwoord was "daar is nie inbrake of diefstal hier nie".

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Would recommend if the security is beefed up.

If the on-site maintenance is done regularly, the shower will not be sitting with broken tiles and doors. Was disappointed with the shower where there was a broken tile. This could have caused a serious injury, and the shower door will fall on you when it is opened or closed. That's one thing you usually want when you've driven a long way, to take a nice shower and relax. The security is not as desired, gates are not even locked. We asked Ronnie if the gates were locked, his answer was "there are no break-ins or thefts here".

Hi Renier, we are sorry that you had a bad overnight stay at Angela's Lodge, we have replaced the shower unit as well as replaced the old TV with a large flat screen TV. As all our units have solar geysers, there are aproximately 10 days a year when the hot water is not up to standard, also the basin mixer is somewhat confusing to operate.

Aaklig!

Die mure tussen die kamers is net 'n stuk karton! Ons kon alles hoor wat in die kamer langs ons gebeur het en die spesifieke gaste het tot 03:30 die oggend kliphard musiek deur die TV gespeel. Die veiligheid waarvan gepraat word is net 'n skuifhek wat nie eens gesluit word in die aand nie. As ek nie klaar betaal het nie, sou ek nooit daar gebly het nie. Darem was Ronnie 'n gawe mens. Sal dit glad nie aanbeveel nie.

Horrible!

The walls between the rooms are just a piece of cardboard! We could hear everything that happened in the room next to us and the particular guests played loud music through the TV until 03:30 in the morning. The security that is being talked about is just a sliding gate that is not even locked in the evening. If I hadn't finished paying, I would never have stayed there. At least Ronnie was a nice person. Would not recommend it at all.

Hi Lourens, we are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay at our Angela's Guest House complex. Unfortunately most of these houses at Gariep Dam are pre-fabricated, in fact, some 98% of the houses, and when one has a rowdy neighbour, it can certainly be irritating. We would like to offer you a free-stay voucher for your next visit and the SunRose Group of Guest Houses will make sure that you have a comfortable, safe and quiet unit.
