Most enjoyable.

It was all we needed for the night. However, it is very much a business destination, and if you are spending time in Richards Bay, it is a major port.

Dit was baie aangenaam en verfrissend.

Om dit uitstekend te maak sou ek graag 'n vashoupyp in die stort wou hê. Dit sou baie behulpsaam gewees het vir ouer mense.

It was very pleasant and refreshing.

To make it excellent I would like to have a holding pipe in the shower. It would have been very helpful for older people.

Maar nie Saterdaeaande nie. Moet sê dit was Valentynsnaweek.

Dis 'n nes van drank en halfkaal vrouens in die swembaddens. Sondag word wakker van 'n gedoef reg voor my deur, toe ek my deur oopmaak is 'n party reg voor my deur.

But not Saturday nights. Must say it was Valentine's weekend.

It's a nest of booze and half-naked women in the swimming pools. Sunday I woke up to a thud right outside my door, when I opened my door there was a party right outside my door.

Baie rustig.

Ek wil net vra dat hulle asb. gedurende die nag 'n plan maak met die stoepligte aangesien dit bo die gordyn inskyn en mens sukkel om te slaap want dit lyk die heeltyd asof dag is. Baie dankie dit was lekker.

Very calm.

I just want to ask that they please during the night make a plan with the porch lights as they shine above the curtain and you have trouble sleeping because it looks like it's daytime all the time. Thank you very much it was nice.

Gerieflik en ruim.

Ons was nie gelukkig met die netheid nie. Die asblik was oorvol met leë bottels en daar het vullissakke rondgestaan. Die swembad het koppies in gehad en die afdroogvadoeke was vuil. Die aircon se remote batterye was ook pap. Ons het geskakel oor alles en daar is niks aan gedoen nie. Baie swak diens gewees maar die plek is modern en oulik.

Comfortable and spacious.

We were not happy with the cleanliness. The bin was overflowing with empty bottles and there were rubbish bags lying around. The pool had cups in it and the drying towels were dirty. The aircon's remote batteries were also dead. We talked about everything and nothing was done about it. Very poor service but the place is modern and cute.

Spacious, clean and good food.

Gecko Inn is spacious. The rooms are clean and well maintained. There is a restaurant on site and food can be ordered late at night even. There were even some vegetarian options.

Dit was 'n wonderlike ervaring, ek sal beslis weer daar bly!

Ek was vriendelik verras gewees toe ek daar gekom het. Die personeel was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. My kamer was skoon en het meer as genoeg spasie gehad. Ek't nie besef dat mens aandete daar kon eet nie maar sal beslis in die toekoms daarvan gebruik maak. Baie dankie!

Veilig, vriendelik en gerieflik.

Baie tegemoetkomende personeel wat ons bejaarde mede reisiger gemaklik en veilig laat voel het. Die kamers is ruim, luuks en gereiflik. Die klein swembadjies is 'n wenner.

Kon ander gaste deur die nag hoor en dit was steurend.

Hoewel als baie netjies en skoon was, kon mens die ander gaste deur die nag hoor praat wat steurend was. Die aandete van die spyskaart het lank gevat om voor te berei.

Could hear other guests throughout the night and it was disturbing.

Although everything was very neat and clean, you could hear the other guests talking throughout the night which was disturbing. The dinner from the menu took a long time to prepare.
