Vriendelike en hulpvaardige personeel.

Daar was nie 'n afdroogdoek en waslap in die kombuis nie. Ons het DSTV uitgestel, en albei probleme is reggestel nadat ons dit aangemeld het. WiFi was nie beskikbaar nie, 'n groot teleurstelling. Verstaanbaar as sein vanaf die verskaffer 'n probleem was.

Friendly and helpful staff.

There was no drying cloth and washcloth in the kitchen. We deferred to DSTV, and both problems were fixed after we reported them. WiFi was not available, a big disappointment. Understandable if signal from the provider was a problem.

Hi daar Adri.

Jammer oor die klein ongerief, ek is bly dat my personeel vinnig diens gelewer het. Yes, die internet was uit vir 7 dae en dit het ons 21ste-eeu lewe baie gedemp. Jammer daaroor, maar soos jy tereg sê, dis ons verskaffers en ons kon niks aan die saak doen nie.

Functional overnight facility.

The unit we stayed in was a little neat with an extra mattress in the living room - as if it was being used as a storage space. My husband and I slept on single beds. We have traveled a lot recently and now compare it to other overnight places in this price range. We thought the place might need a modern makeover. However, the staff were friendly and helpful.

Hallo Marius, baie dankie dat jy Elkoweru ondersteun het en vir die mooi resensie. Ons hoop dat julle weer by Elkoweru 'n draai sal kom maak.

Ons bied alle etes aan en ook kospakkies. Ek is seker my sosiale media platforms sê dat dit optioneel ekstra is. Ek is jammer as ons dit iewers gemis het om vir julle te noem of aan te bied. Kom eet gerus volgende keer saam met ons 'n lekker groot ontbyt met goeie koffie.

Groete,

Die oornag verblyf is baie basies en die kamer met 3 enkelbeddens. Is maar redelik beknop.

Die kamer was skoon, maar geen kragpunt naby die spieël nie, koffie- en tee-opsies baie basies en beperk. Slegs een bed het 'n elektriese kombers op gehad. Nietemin - jy kry waarvoor jy betaal.

Dankie vir julle resensie.

Die huis is reeds jare terug gebou en kamer se uitleg het verander. Die krag punt is wel nie by die Spiel nie maar net om die hoek van dit.

Ook was dit Covid19. Ons dorp is baie ver van alles af weg en glo my ek het gaan warm komberse soek en hier is niks te koop in hierdie dorp nie. So ja, 'n bietjie ongerief vir julle maar ek het geen ander opsie gehad nie.

Nie heeltemal wat ons verwag het nie.

Die eienaar is ‘n vriendelike persoon wat graag help. Ek het die idee gekry dat hy nie 100% in voeling is met sy eie gastehuis nie. Daar was een of twee goedjies wat ons gepla het, maar dit was aangespreek en ons verblyf was aanvaarbaar.

Not quite what we expected.

The owner is a friendly person who likes to help. I got the idea that he is not 100% in touch with his own guest house. There were one or two things that bothered us, but they were addressed and our stay was acceptable.

Ek is al 25 jaar by hierdie gastehuis en is lief vir wat ek doen. Ek besit wel ook ander besighede en dalk het julle my gevang tussen dit.

Hierdie is my inkomste en ek hou van toer en my kennis deel. Onder geen omstandighede sou ek julle sommer net uit gevoel uit hanteer het nie.

Ek is bly julle kom Namakwaland sien en ek hoop dat julle weer eendag in ons wereld sal n draai maak

Dit was verskriklik vuil. Alles. Van die beddegoed, matte, alle kombuisware ens.

Die woonstel was baie vuil. Alles was vuil. Veral die kamers en kombuis. Onder die beddens kon mens sien dis jare laas skoongemaak. En die stoof was seker nog nooit skoongemaak nie.

Baie netjiese plek met uitstekende geriewe.

Ons was aangenaam verras met die beskikbare ruimte en gerieflike, ruime badkamers. Die kombuis/eetkamer is goed voorsien. Die grootste verrassing met die koue weer was die beskikbaarheid van warm komberse! Ons het 'n paar goed daar vergeet en hulle het onderneem om dit vir ons te koerier. Uiteraard op ons koste.

Gerieflike verblyf met sentrale ligging.

Ons verblyf was aangenaam. Die kamer was gewoon maar netjies. Ons was aanvanklik ontevrede omdat ons 'n gesinskamer gekry het pleks van twee aparte kamers. Alhoewel dit nie sy fout was nie, was die eienaar egter tegemoetkomend en het ons ander opsies aangebied. Elkoweru se ligging en uitsig oor die dorp is fantasties.

Comfortable accommodation and central location.

Our accommodation was so lovely. The room was run of the mill but neat. Initially we were a bit unhappy because we they gave us a family room instead of 2 separate rooms. Even though it wasn't his fault the owner was very accommodating and gave us other options. Ekowru's location and view of the town is fantastic.

Acceptable accommodation! Disappointing service.

Rushed, impersonal check-in. Booking was made inclusive of breakfast and confirmed by LekkeSlaap. After discussing this with staff upon arrival - a disagreement ensued and refused to accommodate the inclusion of breakfast stating that LekkeSlaap had the incorrect information and that we would have to resolve the dispute with them directly. The morning of our departure, the staff tried to recover the breakfast situation (telephonically) only when they heard us leaving the property, which we declined as other plans had already been made.

Elkoweru Guest House 's response

Good day,

Thank you for your review.

Firstly I would like to apologise for the inconvenience. Our prices are all quoted without breakfast and I personally made this agreement with you. I had to leave and my staff did not know. My mistake. They immediately resolved the problem with Lekkerslaap and with you and the next morning phone call was to confirm if we still await you.

We try our best to make everybody happy and to treat everybody equally. With internet these days everyone can name and shame a family business like mine operating for 25 years giving our best to clients to make sure they are happy and that we have food on our table, without thinking of the damage you are doing with not stating the whole situation and without understanding that a deal like this with breakfast included does not make me any profit. I have made contact with you personally on email without any reply. We tried to communicate with you.

I work 05h30 to 00:00 every day Sunday to Sunday to make all my clients happy. Please state the whole situation in your next review and also reply to an owners apology via email.

Thanks,
Konrad

Oud en afgeleef.

Weens die feit dat WiFi nie beskikbaar was in die kamer waar ek ingeboek was nie, het die ontvangsdame my na 'n kamer nader aan die kantoor geskuif. Die kamer is oud, afgeleef. Die beddegoed, gordyne, matte en handdoeke is oud, dun en uitgerafel. Die prys vir die afgeleefde kamer het dieselfde gebly as vir die kamer wat ek aanvanklik bespreek het. Die area is ook baie "dodgy". Slegste verblyf ervaring ooit! En ek reis elke week vir werk.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Old and shabby.

Due to the fact that WiFi was not available in the room I was checked in, the receptionist moved me to a room closer to the office. The room is old, shabby. The bedding, curtains, carpets and towels are old, thin and frayed. The price for the shabby room remained the same as for the room I had initially booked. The area is also very "dodgy". Worst accommodation experience ever! And I travel every week for work.

Goeie dag,
Ek is jammer dat u ondervinding so uitgedraai het. Ons plek word elke jaar gradeer en ek peprsoonlik hou my hand op die plek. Ek stem saam daar is wel kamers wat aandag nodig het maar daar is baie ander kamers om van te kies waar u wel Wi-Fi gaan kry. Ons adverteer ook nie Wi-Fi in kamers nie, ons het 'n publieke area waar u wel die gerief kan gebruik en dis wat ek adverteer. Ook so het u die geleendheid gehad om enige van my 12 ander kamers te kies na u keuse wat op goeie standaard is.

Ons area is ook nie dodgy nie. Springbok is baie veilig en Elkoweru is gelee op 'n baie rustige area. Ons het nie probleme hier nie. Hierdie is nie die stad nie, dis Namakwaland.

Ek hoop u reis elke week vir werk is veilig en suksesvol. Dankie dat jy wel ons ondersteun het en dankie vir jou insette ek sal onmiddelik aandag gee daar aan.

Groete,
Die eienaar

Tweede keuse, dis nie presies wat ons wou hê, maar 'n goeie plek as dit is wat jy wou hê.

Goeie uitsig, maklike en vriendelike inboek, netjiese enkelkamer met badkamer (slegs stort), yskassie en ketel, opruimdiens. Baie trappe en gedeelde kombuis onder, maar sekerlik nie vir almal 'n probleem nie. Ons het blomme gaan kyk en Elkoweru is goed geleë om die omgewing te besoek.

Elkoweru Guest House het sy goeie en swak punte.

Die dogter by die ontvangs het nie baie aandag aan ons gegee nie, ek dink sy wou net huistoe gaan, ons moes self vra of ons ontbyt kon kry. Die kamer was skoon, maar so baie koud en die battery van die lugversorging was amper pap, so jy kon hom moeilik stel. Die trap is baie hoog om jou koffer na die kamer toe te bring. In die nag was daar baie lawaai van die straatkant af met motorfietse en karre wat net resies hou. Die vrou wat die ontbyt versorg was so baie vriendelik en die ontbyt was goed versorg. Ons sal nie teruggaan na Elkoweru as ons Namibië toe gaan nie, daar is ander plekke in Springbok wat baie beter is.

Elkoweru Guest House has good and bad points.

The girl at reception did not pay much attention to us, I think she just wanted to go home and we had to ask whether or not we could get breakfast. The room was clean, but so cold and the battery of the aircon was almost flat so you had difficulty adjusting it. The stairs are very high for taking your suitcase to your room. During the night there was a lot of noise from the street with motorbikes and cars that just wanted to race. The woman who made breakfast was so friendly and breakfast was good. We won't go back to Elkoweru when heading to Namibia again. There are other places in Springbok that are much better.

Elkoweru Guest House 's response

Goeie dag, baie dankie vir die terugvoering van ons diens. Dis al hoe ons die diens kan verbeter.
Die dame by ontvangs werk al 'n geruime tyd by my en al my gaste hou van haar vriendelikheid, as sy 'n af daggie gehad het, vra ek namens haar om verskoning. Ons etes is alles ekstra en ek het reeds die saak aangespreek hoekom hulle nie aan u 'n ete aangebied het nie.
Batterye van 'n remote is by enige huis iets wat kan pap raak en hier is op voorraad genoeg batterye om u te kon help, sou u die saak aangemeld het wat u nie gedoen het nie. Ons help enige tyd van die dag en dra voorraad van alle gebruik items.

Die insident dat daar geraas was moet definitief 'n "once off" wees want ek bly nie naby besige strate nie en teen die koppie waar ons geleë is is dit altyd rustig. Ongelukkig kan ons niks aan Jan Publiek doen nie. Ons perseel is baie veilig en ook oor die algemeen baie stil. Ons vra ook gereeld ons gaste om respekvol teenoor ander gaste te wees na 22:00 waarna ek as die eienaar self optree teenoor dit.

Die meisies by ontbyt is baie vriendelik en baie dankie vir daardie kompliment, ek het dit so aan hulle oorgedra.

Daar is verseker baie goeie gastehuise in Springbok, maar ek verseker u dat ek as eienaar altyd op die perseel is en seker maak dat, as ek wel weet van die insidente, self sorg dat die probleem uitsorteer word. Ons streef na goeie diens na 25 jaar en ook die laagste pryse.

Dankie dat u ons help om n beter diens te kan lewer,

Groete
Konrad Steyn.......die eienaar ;)

Ons was baie vriendelik ontvang en het baie lekker geslaap.

Die verblyf was baie lekker. Ons het sommer die selfsorgfasaliteite baie goed benut en saam met twee ander reisigers ook geëet. Die gastehuis met vriendelike ontvangs deur Elzaan is hoogs aan te beveel.

Baie nice gastehuis en goeie waarde vir geld.

Ek gebruik die afgelope drie jaar al Elkoweru Gastehuis vir oornagverblyf as ek Namibië toe reis. Dis goed geleë en bekostigbaar. Baie hulpvaardige gasheer en heerlike ontbyt! Ek kan dit met 'n geruste hart aanbeveel.

Ongerieflik.

Die kamer was uiters beknop vir 3 volwassenes. Daar was geen geriewe om klere te hang nie. Ek sal eerder 2 kamers aanbeveel as 3 in 1 kamer. Die gedeelde kombuisgeriewe is ook maar ongemaklik.

Gemiddelde akkommodasie, met 'n neutrale, hotel-tipe atmosfeer.

Kamer was skoon en netjies, maar skiet tekort aan die warmte en huislike gevoel wat van 'n gastehuis verwag word.

Ek was onder die indruk dat die prys wat ek betaal het (R400 p.p.p.n) ontbyt ingesluit het, maar dit was nie so nie. Ek sou verkies dat dit meer duidelik sal wees volgende keer.

Nie wat ons verwag het vir die prys nie.

Kamer was baie klein en die oop area buite die kamer het oorweldigend na ou sigaretrook geruik. Daar was ook 'n oneindige gedrup van water onder die venster wat ons uit die slaap gehou het. Die stortwater het kort-kort gewissel van yskoud tot kokend warm terwyl jy stort. Ons het definitief gevoel die tarief was uitbuiting vir die waarde wat ons gekry het. Jammer, maar hopelik help ons opmerkings om die ervaring beter te maak vir toekomstige besoekers.

Not what we expected for the price.

Room was very small and the open area outside the room smelled overwhelmingly of stale cigarette smoke. There was also an endless drip of water under the window that kept us from sleeping. The shower water periodically changed from freezing cold to boiling hot while showering. We definitely felt the rate was extortionate for the value we got. Sorry, but hopefully our comments help make the experience better for future visitors.

Ons was hier tydens 'n blommetoer.

Die trappe is te erg vir ons met die bagasie. Ons hou nie daarvan dat die woonbuurt se mense teen die gastehuis verbyloop nie. Die kamer is baie ruim en goed toegerus. Konrad is besig met opgraderings, en dit is oor die algemeen aanvaarbaar.
