Ons sal nie weer van die fasiliteit gebruik maak nie.

Volgens ons is die plek eerder bedoel vir kontrakteurs. My dogter sou in haar eie kamer slaap, maar daar was 'n vreeslike onaangename reuk in die badkamer en sy het op die ou end in ons eenheid kom slaap. Ons eenheid het ook nie baie goed geruik nie. Die stort lek water oor die hele badkamervloer. Ook geen waaier in die kamer.

Translate to English.

We will not use the facility again.

In our opinion, the place is rather intended for contractors. My daughter was supposed to sleep in her own room, but there was a terrible smell in the bathroom and she ended up sleeping in our unit. Our unit didn't smell very good either. The shower leaks water all over the bathroom floor. Also no fan in the room.

Econo Lodge 's response

Ek is baie jammer vir julle ondervinding, ek gaan opvolg oor die reuk. Ek het nog nie voorheen enige klagtes daaroor gehad nie. Ons het redelik kontrakteurs wat by ons bly ook. Indien jy dalk weer vir ons 'n kans wil gee, is jy welkom om met my te praat. Ons het spaar fan's.

A beautiful stay.

The lodge is good if you are travelling alone and just for a sleepover. It can be a little bit noisy and crowded at the reception. Food gets served there and there is an unnecessary snooker table that's also blocking the way. On the 1st day the room was a bit dirty or used. The following day it was cleaned and nice. The caretakers were very nice to me. I will use the lodge again in future. I know what to expect. This is a 3-star lodge, so don't go with very high expectations. My bed was very comfortable and that's one item I do not compromise on. I didn't care for the TV - but also, I didn't see the remotes in the room. The wardrobes are not really conducive for a long stay. It may be best to travel with your own iron just for convenience. Like I said, I will use them again. Just don't expect too much.

Noisy.

Very noisy environment. Definitely not the place to stay if you are working a shutdown. No option for food at the lodge. There is only 1 kitchen for the whole lodge and everyone must use that kitchen resulting in some people not being able to cook before going to work.

Econo Lodge 's response

I am sorry for your experience. We don't have cooking facilities in the rooms you chose, and we let the guys use the kitchen when available, the self-catering rooms are more for the people that need to cook. Unfortunately, this is the busy time of the year with the shutdown.

A bit impractical.

They expect you to let 2 small children (1 & 5 years) sleep alone in a unit. Did move a cot to the upper unit at our request. Very cold; openings in the door let cold wind through and no heaters. I think R1000 p/n for this is a bit expensive.

My stay was just OK.

The place is OK, just it was too noisy. I was tired from work and wanted to sleep early but some guests (contractors) who stayed there were making noise till 10 to 11 PM. Even when I reported it, they continued. Another boring thing was the TV channels, it was automatically changed for you. The place is fine, but I do not think it is perfect for a night guest. Contractors who are booked there make a lot of noise.

Econo Lodge 's response

I am very sorry about your experience, unfortunately specially when there is a few people from one contracters they can be loud.

Dis baie basies en klein maar gemaklik en bekostigbaar.

Almal was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam, ek sou egter aanbeveel dat hulle op hulle webtuiste noem dat geen seep voorsien word nie, daar is slegs twee handdoeke voorsien waarvan een 'n klein gesighanddoekie was en dus onvoldoende was. Dan wil ek net kla oor een ding en dis die kussings, die kussings is oud en pap en ons het glad nie lekker geslaap daarop nie.

It's very basic and small but comfortable and affordable.

Everyone was very friendly and helpful, however I would recommend that they mention on their website that no soap is provided, only two towels are provided, one of which was a small face towel and was therefore inadequate. Then I just want to complain about one thing and that's the pillows, the pillows are old and mushy and we didn't sleep well on them at all.

I am very sorry for the problems, I will follow it up. Just to make a correction, the booking was made for 2 self-catering rooms with 1 person in each, that is why there was just 1 towel in the rooms, at arrival, there were 2 people for the 1 room and 1 for the second room. In the future please phone me if there is a problem for us to sort it out.

Die beste plek vir 'n bekostigbare, skoon, dak oor jou kop met skoon beddegoed en warm stort!

Ek was werklik verbaas, vir die prys, kan mens nie veel verwag nie, maar tog word 'n skoon kamer en beddegoed vereis - en dit is presies wat jy sal kry, ingerig in die styl van 'n kommune - kamers met 'n sentrale gang en leefruimte, maar dit het ons nie in die minste gehinder nie, ons was daar vir een aand, en wou net plek hê waar ons gemaklik kan slaap, en 'n warm stort kan vat - wat veilig is, en veilige parkering bied. Dankie Econo Lodge vir 'n maklike en pynlose ervaring.

The best place for an affordable, clean, roof over your head with clean bedding and a hot shower!

I was really surprised, for the price, one can't expect much, yet a clean room and bedding is required - and that's exactly what you'll get, furnished in the style of a commune - rooms with a central hallway and living space, but that didn't bother us in the least, we were there for one night, and just wanted a place where we could sleep comfortably, and take a hot shower - that was safe, and offered safe parking. Thank you Econo Lodge for an easy and painless experience.

Room is neat and tidy just very small.

Unfortunately it was very noisy therefore we didn't get a good night's rest. I would prefer having a kettle and cups in the room to make coffee.

Econo Lodge 's response

Goeiedag Lelanie,

Jammer hieroor, dit was 'n baie besige naweek. Ongelukkig het net die groot kamers aan die buitekant kombuisfasiliteite. Daar is wel 'n ketel in die voorportaal vir koffie en tee.

Groete,
Econo Lodge

Netjies.

Die kamer was netjies ingerig. Het probleme ondervind met 'n verstopte drein en stortdeur wat nie gewerk het nie. Staf was nie juis behulpsaam of vriendelik nie.

Neat.

The room was neatly equipped. Experienced problems with a clogged drain and shower door that did not work. Staff wasn't really friendly or helpful.

Goeiemore Liani,
Ek is baie jammer dat julle probleme ondervind het en dat dit nie opgelos is nie, ek weet steeds nie van die geblokte drein en stortdeur nie maar gaan defnitief uitvind daarvan.

Disappointing

Very cramped, but the name and the price say it and I should have known better. Check-in Friday after 15:00 a member of staff is lying on the sofa in the reception portal. Cleaning agents and accessories are on the pool table in the portal. Saturday and Sunday morning reception becomes a restaurant with six members of staff in loud conversation sitting around the reception counter and enjoying their breakfast. We struggle with luggage through the small space between them and the front door. At least they kindly say "Bye Bye" Thank you. This will be the last time. Throw away the plastic mat before the shower and replace it with a towel mat. It's dangerous and messy. How about some hooks in the bathroom to hang clothes etc. to hang while showering. Don't say "Sorry to hear" DO SOMETHING

Extremely weak.

Not very clean, walls dirty, door handles dirty, bed uncomfortable, lots of noise from other rooms, no sleep, DStv only one channel. Will definitely not stay there again. Not value for money.

Noise complaint.

The main problem I had, we had a wedding to attend the following day (Saturday) and on Friday night the hosts were making a huge noise past midnight on Friday. I'm pretty sure all the guests could not sleep because of that.

Econo Lodge 's response

Good day,

I am very sorry about this, will take it up with the host.

Clean and tidy, ideal for an overnight stay.

Econo Lodge provides a basic overnight room with bathroom facility, common relaxation area. It almost creates a dormitory atmosphere for the working class. It's ideal for contractors who have to stay overnight for work.

Dit was presies wat ons gesoek het: goeie waarde vir geld, gemaklike bed en warm water!

Ons het letterlik net daar geslaap. Was ook dankbaar vir die koffiegeriewe en kombuis wat tot ons beskikking was.

For a quick overnight stay only.

The rooms are very small, the fridge did not work. Staff are quite friendly and helpful. Cardboard is simply pushed between the roof fan and the ceiling for stabilization, not that it helps much. The place is suitable for a quick overnight stay, definitely not for a longer stay, unless you are only looking for a place to sleep and will never be there otherwise. At least the place is neat and pretty clean.

Cheap does not have to mean untidy.

It was like a hostel. Noisy at night and bedding had a bed smell. Had to ask for towels in the room and no plug for the fridge. We were given extension cord which was then taken in the morning.

Unpleasant.

Bedding was not cleanly covered, so we had to sleep on top of the bedding. Ragged towels were waiting for us, (luckily we always take our own with us) unbearable noise by guests inside the house until after 12:00 am.

Netheid ontbreek in die kamers.

Die beddegoed was nie skoon nie, kussings het 'n reuk gehad, ons ouens het hul T-shirts oor die kussings getrek om ten minste hulself te ruik en die stort was nie skoongemaak nie. Moeilik geslaap. Baie onaangename ondervinding vir hulle gewees, alhoewel die dame uit haar pad gegaan het om vir hul vroeg te kom oopsluit.

Neatness in rooms are lacking.

The linen wasn't clean, the pillows had an odour. We pulled our T-shirts over the pillows to avoid the smell. The shower was not clean. Had trouble sleeping. It was not a good experience, even though the hostess went out of her way to open up early.

We unfortunately hit it - fellow guests rowdy - do not consider other guests

Room F - Front and bathroom doors need attention it is rubbing on floor. Room neat and clean. Does not create a good impression if ironing is done in the reception area. Compliments to the staff at reception - treated us to coffee and very friendly.
