Dit was heerlik om daar te bly, Tannie Gerda is baie gasvry en sy gaan uit haar pad uit om dit lekker en gemaklik vir die gaste te maak.

Sorry for that, we do have WiFi available. When you sign in, you get the password at the desk. There are also cameras around the whole premises.

Nie beïndruk nie.

Met aankoms het dame nie eers gevra wie ons is nie. Ons deurgevat na ander kamer en toe gesê sy kan vir ons vir R700 per nag gee. Ons het wel in Desember al volledige bespreking betaal. Het kamer nommer 4 bespreek, maar kon nie daar bly nie want dit was besig om geverf te word. Het toe maar kamer 5 gevat waar my man self bed moes terugskuif omdat dit ook geverf was. Wou 'n koppie koffie maak, geen teelepel in kamer. My man moes gaan vra vir die hek se remote sodat ons later die aand self kon inkom. Het 'n troue gehad en het eers laat die aand teruggekom by gastehuis, het gesukkel vir parkering en moes laat ander gaste ons vasstop sodat ons almal parkering kon hê. Nie beïndruk nie. Sal nie weer boek nie.

Not impressed.

Upon arrival, lady didn't even ask who we were. We were taken to another room and then told she could give us R700 per night. We did already pay full reservation in December. Booked room number 4 but couldn't stay there as it was being painted. Then only took room 5 where my husband had to move the bed back because it was also painted. Wanted to make a cup of coffee, no teaspoon in room. My husband had to go and ask for the gate's remote so that we could come in ourselves later that evening. Had a wedding and didn't get back to guest house until late at night, struggled for parking and had to let other guests block us so we could all have parking. Not impressed. Will not book again.

Geen water.

Ons het vroeër ingeboek na ons sekergemaak het dis reg so, begin stort om klaar te maak vir 'n troue toe is daar 5 druppels koue water. En eweskielik geen water. Moes hare afspoel met 'n 5 liter-waterbottel. Het die bestuurder ingelig daar is nie water nie. Net om te hoor jammer almal het daar kom wasgoed was en nou is die water op. Baie swak. Sal nie weer daar slaap nie.

No water.

We checked in earlier after we made sure it was all right, started showering to get ready for a wedding then there were 5 drops of cold water. And of course no water. Had to rinse hair with a 5 liter water bottle. Informed the manager there was no water. Just to hear sorry everyone came there to do laundry and now the water has run out. Very weak. Will not sleep there again.

Hallo Melissa, dankie vir kommentaar, die deel van dorp het reeds twee maande nie water van Munisipaliteit nie.
Die gastehuis is geseend met boorgatwater, met jul verblyf was ek nog nuut met regulering van tank. Ek is jammer.

Het Gerda as gasvrou baie geniet.

Die groot aantal kontrak-werkers wat naby ons kamer sit en drink of met bottels bier rondgeloop het, het ons baie onveilig laat voel. Uiteindelik was ons bekommernis verniet en was daar ook nie onnodige lawaai nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Really enjoyed Gerda as a hostess.

The large number of contract workers sitting near our room drinking or walking around with bottles of beer made us feel very unsafe. In the end, our worries were for nothing and there was no unnecessary noise either.

Hostess Gerda was extremely kind and friendly and accommodating.

We arrived early for things we needed to accomplish in Hartswater. Our hostess could not have been kinder and more helpful. She also provided a tea tray and made sure our needs were well met. We were thankful for her kindness! Charis means God's grace and we found in her a very graceful and gracious hostess. The rooms were well-equipped and clean and lovely.

Baie dankie aan Gerda, wat ons ingewag het en elke oggend persoonlik ingeloer het om seker te maak dat ons 'n goeie nagrus gehad het en of ons enige iets anders benodig. Die uitwys van die houtkappernes was vir ons 'n hoogtepunt!
