Our hostess and her husband were very kind to allow my family of five to stay for one night. They were very welcoming and friendly. It was exactly what we needed.

The back garden, at night, with the lights shining on the succulents up into the koppie, is just so peaceful.

Hallo Mariana
Ek is jammer om te hoor dat jy ongelukkig was oor die kussings.
Die kussings is die standaard hotel kussings wat op die mark beskikbaar is.

Skoon, gemaklik, alles wat 'n mens nodig het!

Lieflike woonstel. Super skoon. Definitief een van die beste plekke waar ons nog oor geslaap het. Let wel dat daar nie 'n muur/omheining rondom die perseel is nie. Daar is wel beams rondom die woonstel en dit is 'n baie veilige area.

Okay for what you pay.

It wasn't bad but not the best either. The hot water would just suddenly go cold in the middle of your shower even after I had explained the issue to the host; the issue persisted. The gas tank is too small for the furnace heater. Also, it isn't suitable for two couples, maybe for one couple and older kids. The top floor is quite unsafe for young kids as my toddler could easily fall through the railing if I wasn't constantly watching her. It is also quite noisy if there are people awake downstairs while you are trying to sleep. Lastly, I wasn't able to contact the host ahead of arriving after multiple attempts as we were ahead of schedule. When we got there, she was a bit weird about us arriving slightly earlier as the place wasn't ready for us yet. It didn't feel like a very nice welcome.

Arend Cottage 's response

We replaced the gas bottle as requested, and since we received no further comments, we assumed that the issue had been resolved.

The layout of our property is clearly detailed and shown by photos, which are provided to ensure guests can make an informed decision before booking. We also have a baby gate available for use by request. We were here at all times to assist.

Our check-in and check-out times are clearly communicated at the time of booking. The guest arrived at 12:15 PM, while check-in is from 2:00 PM, particularly after hosting guests the previous night. I was cleaning the guesthouse when they arrived, and I welcomed them while explaining that the house would be ready in about 15 minutes. Unfortunately, I was unable to respond to their call immediately, as I was busy preparing the property. We take all feedback seriously and are always improving our services. While the majority of our reviews reflect our commitment to providing excellent accommodation, we will use your advice to enhance our guest experience further. Thank you, and we wish you all the best.

Baie netjies en waarde vir geld.

Die cottage is in 'n stil buurt geleë en is baie veilig. Salamien is 'n baie goeie gasvrou. Die cottage het alles wat nodig is vir selfsorg en is keurig gemeubileer. Ons het heerlik gebly en sal beslis weer daar tuisgaan.
