Veilig.

Ek het heerlik gebly. Alles perfek. Ek was wel ongelukkig oor die advertensie wat gesê het daar is 'n bed en ontbyt, en dat daar geen ontbyt ingesluit was nie. Ek moes steeds die volle prys betaal.

Safe.

I had a wonderful stay. Everything perfect. I was unhappy about the ad that said there was a bed and breakfast, and that there was no breakfast included. I still had to pay full price.

Breakfast is an optional extra and charged separately. Unfortunately, we weren't offering this service during the past few weeks due to my wife undergoing an operation. She has been unable to walk, and therefore cannot prepare breakfast. If any guest inquired about breakfast, we explained the situation and they were fine with visiting the nearby restaurants or providing their own food.

After.

Ok, but no hot water to bathe or shower and no breakfast option. Couldn't connect to watch TV. No DSTV.

Boskruin Oasis 's response

Johan. I'm sorry to hear this. I'm a bit saddened that you didn't call us or let us know in some way so we could look into the problem and resolve it immediately. If the problem was severe and we couldn't fix it straight away, there was another room available. It's regrettable on our part that you were not happy with your stay. Please do communicate any issues during your stay to ensure you have an enjoyable time away from home.

Perfekte oornagplek.

Ons het al 3 kamers bespreek. Alles was netjies, modern en skoon. Genoeg komberse vir die koue. Wayne was baie vriendelik en het ons welkom laat voel. My hondjie het saam gereis en die tuinwoonstel was perfek, met uitloop na die gras en 'n lieflike tuin.

Perfect overnight stop.

We have already booked 3 rooms. Everything was neat, modern and clean. Enough blankets for the cold. Wayne was very friendly and made us feel welcome. My dog traveled with me and the garden apartment was perfect, with access to the grass and a lovely garden.

Wat 'n mors van geld!

Die volgende was onvoldoende: 1. Geen prop vir wasbak. 2. Mure in kamer was plek-plek vuil. 3. Teelepels was vuil, een teelepel was beskadig. 4. Geen privaatheid tussen badkamer en slaapkamer - oop na buite met slegs veiligheidshek na buite. (Veiligheidshek kon ook nie sluit nie, geen slot is verskaf nie. ). 5. Geen eksterne deur tussen badkamer en slaapkamer nie - kort buitedeur waar veiligheidshek nou is om privaatheid te verbeter. 6. Spinnerak tussen muur en plafon in een hoek van kamer. 7. Geen bo-laken, slegs duvet. Moes oortreksel afhaal en as laken gebruik. Die duvet self was vol vlekke en baie oud. 8. Daar is ook geen waaier of air-con in die vertrek nie.

What a waste of money!

The following were insufficient: 1. No plug for sink. 2. Walls in room were dirty in places. 3. Teaspoons were dirty, one teaspoon was damaged. 4. No privacy between bathroom and bedroom - open to outside with only security gate to outside. (Security gate also failed to lock, no lock was provided. ). 5. No external door between bathroom and bedroom - short external door where security gate is now to improve privacy. 6. Cobweb between wall and ceiling in one corner of room. 7. No top sheet, only duvet. Had to remove cover and use as a sheet. The duvet itself was full of stains and very old. 8. There is also no fan or air-con in the room.

Hi Faan, thanks for the review and for choosing Boskruin Oasis.
As I mentioned on check-in you did book the Economy Room which is our smallest and basic room, nothing fancy.
We do have other rooms and I also did ask you if all was ok on the check-in and you said yes. If you did not like the room we could have upgraded you to the larger rooms if available at the time.
I have also checked the TV in the room and it is working fine.
I also mentioned on check-in that our cell number is on the info sheet in the room, which you could have called us to come to look at the TV. If it was not working we would have moved you to another room.
There is also a notice on the door which also asks you upon check out to let us know of any faulty items, which you did not.

Skoon en netjies. Lekker stil woonbuurt. Lekker gebly en lekker sentraal in 'n veiligheidsarea.

Ons sal dit aanbveel by vriende en kennisse. Sou net graag wou sien dat daar 'n wasbak was om koppies ens te was. Moes dit nou in die badkamer doen.

Excellent location and good security.

The location is excellent and the premises has good security. Everything was neat. The only negative is that the kettle didn't work, which was a disappointment as we stayed only one night and left early in the morning and we would have loved a cup of coffee. Otherwise, no problem.

Boskruin Oasis 's response

Thank you for staying with us.
I have checked and the kettle is working fine, perhaps you didn't switch it on properly. We do leave our contact number with you and also in the room for any mishaps or problems, so we can resolve these on the spot, to ensure you have a great stay. Sorry we couldn't have sorted this out for your morning coffee.

Was aanvaarbaar.

Ek het die "klein" goed gemis soos seep en sjampoe, al was dit net 'n klein hoeveelheid. Ek het ook 'n kas gemis om klere op te hang en moes uit my sak lewe. Daar is ook nie skoonmaakdiens nie.

I missed the "little" things like soap and shampoo, even if it was just a small amount. I also missed a closet to hang clothes and had to live out of pocket. There is also no cleaning service.
