Small, sweet & cheap.

It is very clean and service is good for small money. Please give WiFi password with check-in or leave it in the room. Security at the gate is also friendly. But the window/door is only easily locked, which feels a little uncomfortable. Bed is a little too small for 2.

Lekker gemaklik gebly en geslaap.

Die plek is goed geleë. Was perfek vir ons en het definitief aan ons behoeftes voldoen. Daar was wel paar dingetjies waarop gelet kan word: Ons was vriendelik ontvang en oppad na die kamer kon ek ruik die dame ruik na alkohol. Sy het gesukkel om die sleutel in die sleutelgat te sit. Sy was duidelik onder die invloed. Dan kan daar gelet word op iemand wat op hul pos kan wees wanneer mens uitklok. Laaste ding. Sou gordyn of blind voorstel in die badkamers. Behalwe dit, het ons baie lekker gebly, dankie.

Stayed and slept comfortably.

The place is well located. Was perfect for us and definitely met our needs. There were a few things to note: We were received kindly and on the way to the room I could smell the lady smelling of alcohol. She struggled to put the key in the keyhole. She was clearly under the influence. Then attention can be paid to someone who can be at their post when you check out. Last thing. Would suggest curtain or blind in the bathrooms. Other than that, we had a very nice stay, thank you.

Personeel onbehulpsaam.

Ons het geskakel vooraf om uit te vind watter kamers trappe het sodat ons 'n eenheid sonder trappe kan bespreek vir my skoonma wat met moeite stap, net om daar aan te kom en 'n kamer te kry sonder trappe. Toe die aand glad nie geslaap nie, want die 2 kamers langs ons het gekuier en geraas tot 4h45 die oggend. Ons het dit die oggend gerapporteer, want niemand was daar deur die nag nie. Die bestuurder en dame wat gehelp het, het net gelag en gesê "eish". Andersins baie netjies, maar personeel onbehulpsaam.

Staff unhelpful.

We called ahead to find out which rooms had stairs so we could reserve a unit without stairs for my mother in law who has difficulty walking, only to arrive and get a room without stairs. Didn't sleep at all that night, because the 2 rooms next to us chatted and made noise until 4:45 in the morning. We reported it in the morning because no one was there through the night. The manager and lady helping just laughed and said "eish". Otherwise very neat, but staff unhelpful.

TV het nie gewerk nie, ons het gedink ons kry ontbyt ook, net om te hoor daar is nie 'n sjef nie.

'n Gastehuis is veronderstel om ontbyt die volgende oggend te gee, die koffie- en teeskinkbordjie het ook net 1 koffie en 2 suiker gehad. Ek en my man drink nie tee nie, die volgende oggend toe ons ry, was daar niemand om die sleutel voor te gee nie, en ons het hom maar by die hek deur 'n venster gegooi toe die remote agter ons toegemaak het.

TV didn't work, we thought we would get breakfast too, only to be told there is no chef.

A guest house is supposed to provide breakfast the next morning, the coffee and tea tray also only had 1 coffee and 2 sugars. My husband and I don't drink tea, the next morning when we drove, there was no one to give the key to, and we just threw him through a window at the gate when the remote closed behind us.

A warm welcome by Gugu, who brought us to our very comfortable room.

Our room was more than comfortable, with fridge, coffee and tea facilities, a very good bed and a lovely little patio with outdoor shower and bad. Receptionist Gugu herself collect our ordered sushi, since the restaurant didn't had a delivery service. We had a great stay at Calla Lily GH.

Nie wat ons bespreek het nie.

Twee van die kamers wat ons bespreek het was heeltemal nie waarvoor ons betaal het nie. Toe word daar gesê dat op webtuiste hulle nog nie opgedateer het nie. Het op ander webtuistes gekyk en was dieselfde. Wou met bestuur praat maar is gesê hulle is nie beskikbaar nie. Die dubbelkamer wat ons vir die meisies gevat het het 2 koninggrootte-beddens en 'n houtvloer, nou ewe skielik een koninggrootte-bed met 'n sementvloer en 'n vuil sleeper couch, buitebadkamer het net 'n stort nie 'n bad soos op foto's nie. Het soos 'n idioot gevoel toe my vriende hulle kamer ingaan en heeltemal nie gekry wat ek hul belowe nie, het ons kamer maar opgeoffer, die verskoning is toe dat die nou 'n kantoor is.

Not what we discussed.

Two of the rooms we booked were totally not what we paid for. Then it said on website they haven't updated yet. Checked on other websites and was the same. Wanted to speak to management but was told they were unavailable. The double room we took for the girls has 2 king size beds and a wooden floor, now all of a sudden one king size bed with a cement floor and a dirty sleeper couch, outside bathroom only has a shower not a bath as in pictures not. Felt like an idiot when my friends went into their room and totally didn't get what I promised them, sacrificed our room, the excuse then is that it is now an office.

Net 'n plek om oor te slaap.

Daar was nie gesê dat die 2 kamers 'n badkamer deel nie, en die badkamer kan nie toemaak van een kant af nie, wat beteken dat as jy dit wil gebruik moet die ander paartjie uitgaan. Daar was ook geen koffie die volgende oggend of opsie vir ontbyt nie. Die bed was goed maar die raam was al uitgeleef.

Just a place to sleep over.

It was not stated that the 2 rooms share a bathroom, and the bathroom cannot be closed from one side, which means that if you want to use it, the other couple has to go out. There was also no coffee the next morning or option for breakfast. The bed was good but the frame was worn out.

Teleurgesteld oor die netheid van die plek.

Die buitearea waar die stort en bad geleë is, was baie vuil daar was insekte en blare in die wasbak, stort, bad en op die vloer. Die kliënt betaal ekstra vir die gerief maar was te vuil om gebruik te word. Wanneer daar water in die bad getap word, loop daar water by die lig in die badkamer uit. Een van die kussings het ook nie 'n sloop op gehad nie.

Disappointed with the cleanliness of the place.

The outside area where the shower and bath is located was very dirty there were insects and leaves in the sink, shower, bath and on the floor. The customer pays extra for the convenience but was too dirty to be used. When water is tapped in the bath, water runs out of the light into the bathroom. One of the pillows didn't have a tear on it either.

Close proximity to the tennis courts as we were there for a tennis tournament.

When we arrived we were shown a room with one bed, I believe I booked two queen size beds, we waited 10 mins for them to say we could have another room. No introductions from staff on arrival, no orientation to our room, no checkout procedure so we did not feel very welcome. The air-con didn't work but it seemed like too much effort to find someone so we left it. The bedside lamp was broken, it worked but the glass decoration was broken.
