Rustig, superskoon met groot buite areas.

Ons het net 'n oornag plekkie gesoek en hierdie was ideaal. Dit was stil en rustig met 'n lekker swembad en baie plekke om te braai en buite kuier. Die manager was altyd beskikbaar en het altyd baie gou my vrae beantwoord. Die WiFi is uitstekend. Daar is 'n TV-skerm, maar daar is net SABC en eTV beskikbaar, so moenie gaan as jou plan is om 'n bietjie DStv te kyk nie. Ons het sommer 'n movie op ons laptop gekyk en dit was piekfyn. Die kos was deeglik en die plek was superskoon. Baie rustig. Die kamers kan warm raak, maar daar is dakwaaiers wat bietjie help. Die kamers en badkamer is lekker groot.

Quiet, super clean with large outside areas.

We were just looking for an overnight place and this was ideal. It was quiet and peaceful with a nice swimming pool and lots of places to barbecue and hang out outside. The manager was always available and always answered my questions very quickly. The WiFi is excellent. There is a TV screen, but only SABC and eTV are available, so don't go if your plan is to watch some DStv. We just watched a movie on our laptop and it was great. The food was thorough and the place was super clean. Very calm. The rooms can get hot, but there are ceiling fans which help a bit. The rooms and bathroom are nice and big.

Ons is vriendelik ontvang.

Die gasheer was baie vriendelik, hy het gesorg dat ons die beste verblyf geniet, maar ook bonus was dat ons ontbyt was ingesluit by ons prys, daar was geen extra betaling nodig. Ek dink die matras op ons bed kan dalk vervang word, maar ons het tog heerlike tyd daar geniet en was baie naby aan ons bestemming waar ons besig was die naweek. Ek beveel die gastehuis definitief aan vir enige iemand wat plek benodig om oor te slaap. Ontbyt was ook perfek na ons sin.

We were kindly received.

The host was very friendly, he made sure that we enjoyed the best stay, but also a bonus was that our breakfast was included in our price, there was no extra payment needed. I think the mattress on our bed might need to be replaced, but we still had a great time there and were very close to our destination where we were busy at the weekend. I definitely recommend the guest house to anyone who needs a place to sleep over. Breakfast was also perfect to our liking.

Teleurstellend en nie die prys werd nie.

Dis redelik onveilig en ver van alles af. Die braai was vuil en vol bossies. Die matrasse moet vervang word. Die eienaar was nie tegemoedkomend m.b.t. ontbyt nie. Ons moes vroeg ry om 'n tennis toernooi by te woon en het dus nie ontbyt ontvang nie. Ons het slegs 1 aand gebly en vir die tweede aand alternatiewe akkommodasie gesoek.

Disappointing and not worth the price.

It's quite unsafe and far from everything. The braai was dirty and full of bushes. The mattresses need to be replaced. The owner was not accommodating regarding no breakfast. We had to drive early to attend a tennis tournament and therefore did not receive breakfast. We only stayed 1 night and looked for alternative accommodation for the second night.

Aangenaam oornag.

Bedoel as 'n oorgang vanaf die lughawe na ander dele van die noordelike provinsie. Die plek is ideaal geleë in 'n rustige en veilige omgewing. Dis dalk nie ideaal vir die meer toeriste-areas van Johannesburg en Pretoria nie. Die onbyt sal enige eetlus tevrede stel. Die kamers is mooi skoon en is heeltyd aan die kant gehou.

Pleasant overnight stay.

Intended as a transition from the airport to other parts of the northern province. The place is ideally located in a peaceful and safe environment. It may not be ideal for the more touristy areas of Johannesburg and Pretoria. The breakfast will satisfy any appetite. The rooms are nice and clean and kept on the side all the time.

Peaceful and quiet.

Was supposed to attend seminar but I was not ready and decided to still go to Gateway Guesthouse and work on my assignments. Had a huge desk in my room to work on and ample supply of coffee. It was quiet and peaceful with the chickens and ducks in the garden. The room was spacious and breakfast was really good too.

Baie aangenaam.

Voorstel van gemotoriseerde hek vir persone wat uitgaan en weer laat arriveer. Het onveilig gevoel om uit die kar te klim en met 'n slot te sukkel. Handelings by die trappe na die tweede vlak, waar ons ontbyt eet, kan 'n probleem wees in ongure weer en vir ouer mense.

Very pleasant.

Proposal of motorized gate for persons leaving and re-arriving late. Felt unsafe getting out of the car and struggling with a lock. Actions at the stairs to the second level, where we eat breakfast, can be a problem in inclement weather and for older people.

The place is a bit tired.

Maybe it was just the room that I had. It could do with a bit of refreshing. No adaptor in the room to charge a cell phone. Yes a bit tired.

The place is ok but could have an air conditioner.

To me it is a sleepover and not outstanding.
