Very friendly staff made us feel very welcome.

This was our first visit to St Helena Bay. Our stay at Goblin's Inn was very comfortable, and the beautiful view of the bay from our room was an added bonus.

Alhoewel hulle nog besig is met opknapping, was ons kamer en braai area uitstekend. Heerlik geswem in die swembad en die rustigheid in die boomhuis geniet met 'n koel drankie en mooi uitsig.

Gasvryheid 10/10.

Ons wou net slaapplek hê vd aand. Dit het ons gekry plus mooi uitsig.

Ons het lekker gebly. Gebou en dekor kort opknapping. Meer oppervlakte om jou goedjies neer te sit in die badkamer sal welkom wees. 'n Rakkie in die stort vir sjampoe, ens. sal ook help. Verder, vriendelike ontvangs en veilige oorslaap. Dankie.

Daar was geen naam/nommer op gebou nie en die gasvrou het eers na die 3rde oproep geantwoord.

Alhoewel alles skoon was, was dit afgeleef. Netjiese ontvangs in straat af - was nie eers daarvan bewus nie en die gasvrou het nie gesê ons moet die sleutel daar in posbus los nie - toe so geraai nadat sy vorige dag genoem het sy bly in die straat af. Het eers 45 min na my SMS reageer. Die blykplek skep 'n verwaarloosde en afgeleefde indruk.

There was no name/number on the building and the hostess only answered after the 3rd call.

Although everything was clean, it was shabby. Neat reception down the street - wasn't even aware of that and the hostess didn't say we had to leave the key in the post box there - so guessed after she mentioned the previous day she was staying down the street. Didn't respond until 45 min after my text. The appearance creates a neglected and run-down impression.

Baie veilig, rustige omgewing, netjies en skoon.

St. Helenabaai is seker een van dié veiligste plekke in SA! Beslis ‘n naweek-kuiertjie werd! Goblin’s Inn verskaf netjiese verblyf in ‘n baie rustige straatjie baie naby aan die see. Daar is ‘n koffiemasjien, suiker en Cremora, maar as jy lief is vir tee en melk - onthou om jou eie saam te bring! Meer as genoeg dubbel- en enkelproppe, ’n yskassie en mikrogolf word verskaf. Dierbare, vriendelike ontvangsdame. Die kantoortjie is net hoër op in die straat, ongeveer 3 of 4 huise van Goblin’s Inn self.

Onbevredigend, frustrerend en lawaaierig.

Ons kamer was aantreklik, goed versorg en toegerus met 'n mooi see-uitsig. Die kamer was egter langs 'n "sogenaamde restaurant" wat elke aand kliphard musiek gemaak en geraas het tot 02:00 elke oggend en oujaarsnag tot 03:00. Ons was glad nie hierop voorberei nie en meen die eienaars moes ons gewaarsku het.

Unsatisfying, frustrating and noisy.

Our room was attractive, well maintained and equipped with a nice sea view. However, the room was next to a "so-called restaurant" that made loud music and noise every night until 2am every morning and until 3am on New Year's Eve. We were not prepared for this at all and think the owners should have warned us.

Die plek is verwaarloos.

Ek het uitdruklik gevra of die badkamer privaat is. Die skuif-/swaaideure kan nie ordentlik toemaak of sluit nie. As jy badkamer toe gaan is die swaaideure half oop. Die badkamer is reg by die gedeelte waar jy met jou kos ens. moet werk. Ons was skrikkerig om binne te gaan, want die plek buite is verwaarloos en lyk nie goed nie. Dit het buite aandag nodig. Die kamer se venster het nie gordyne nie, so jy word vroegoggend wakker met die lig wat deur skyn. Orals is daar stukkende vensters.

The place is neglected.

I specifically asked if the bathroom was private. The sliding/swinging doors cannot close or lock properly. When you go to the bathroom, the swing doors are half open. The bathroom is right next to the part where you take your food etc. must work We were scared to go inside because the place outside is neglected and doesn't look good. It needs outside attention. The room's window has no curtains, so you wake up early in the morning with the light shining through. There are broken windows everywhere.

Depending on what the traveler is looking for it is fair

If the traveler like us drives around a lot, the room is sufficient, but if someone likes to cook for himself, this is a problem. It is also very hot in the room and the fan cannot stop the heat. I assume the cleaners also live in the yard because they had people over at the weekend and the noise was quite disturbing. The owners are very nice and the room is very neat. I just suggest an air conditioner to block some of the heat.

Die plek in die foto's is nie die kamer wat ons gekry het nie. Ek het my akkommodasie prys gegee en na 'n ander plek heen gegaan, ten spyte van die geld wat klaar betaal was. Sal nooit die plek aanbeveel nie.

Ek het meer verwag vir self-catering.

Ons het vir self-catering gevra en volgens die foto's en inligting op internet was ons veronderstel om dit te hê. Daar is 'n yskas en rooster in met gewone smeermesse en eetgerei. Daar is geen wasbak om skottelgoed te was nie, tensy jy dit tussen jou skeer en tandeborsel deur doen in badkamer. Daar is geen snymesse, snyborde, 2-plaatstoof of mikrogolf om ontbyt te maak nie. Dis wat ek by self-catering wil doen. Die braai-area is oop vir almal om te gebruik. Jy het geen privaatheid nie. Die badkamer het nie 'n deur nie en almal is nie gemaklik met oop deure vir toilet en stort doeleindes nie. Oor die algemeen is die kamer baie mooi gemeubileer en ek hou van die uniekheid van elke kamer, maar dis definitief nie 'n self-catering as jy in ag neem mens wil ontbyt maak, saans vleis sny met vrugte en eet sonder om dit op die bed of toilet te doen nie.

I expected more for self-catering.

We asked for self-catering and according to the pictures and information on the internet we were supposed to have it. There is a fridge and grill in it with regular butter knives and cutlery. There is no sink to wash dishes, unless you do it in the bathroom between shaving and brushing your teeth. There are no knives, cutting boards, 2-plate stove or microwave to make breakfast. That's what I want to do with self-catering. The braai area is open for everyone to use. You have no privacy. The bathroom does not have a door and not everyone is comfortable with open doors for toilet and shower purposes. In general, the room is very nicely furnished and I like the uniqueness of each room, but it's definitely not a self-catering if you consider that you want to make breakfast, cut meat with fruit in the evening and eat without putting it on the bed or toilet.

Verstom oor die swak gehalte.

'En Suite' badkamer soos in beskrywing is misleidend in die opsig dat daar slegs 'n enkel aparte badkamer is. Dit weerspreek die "en suite" definisie. Smerige sitkamerbanke; yskas wat lanklaas ontvries en skoongemaak was; groot ongebruikte artikels, soos kabeltol en 'n groot swart gevulde sak (met onbekende rommel vir ons daarin) by ons agterdeur; hangkasdeur wat skarnier van los en disfunksioneel was; uiters vuil stortvloer wat ook swak bouwerk reflekteer; geen gordyn by een van die grootste vensters wat privaatheid skend; 'n deur tussen hierdie eenheid en die aangrensende eenheid waaroor daar niks vooraf gemeld is nie (skending van privaatheid); geen beskermde oortreksels op enige van die matrasse; goed gebruikte ongewaste slaapkussings wat nie skoon ruik of is nie, waarvan die meerderheid sonder beskermde oortreksels was; 'n wasbakrand wat baie swak herstel is; vloerteëls wat so beskadig is hoort nie in 'n eenheid wat teen 'n redelike duur tarief verhuur word nie; daar is geen vloerbedekking in die eenheid; so was daar ook geen inligtings- of diensdokumente vir ons insae in die eenheid nie. Die see-uitsigfoto is misleidend aangesien dit slegs die eerste verdieping is wat hierdie kan geniet.

Amazed at the poor quality.

'En Suite' bathroom as in description is misleading in that there is only a single separate bathroom. This contradicts the "en suite" definition. Filthy lounge sofas; refrigerator that had not been defrosted and cleaned for a long time; large unused articles, such as cable reel and a large black filled bag (with unknown junk to us in it) by our back door; hanging cupboard door that was hinged loose and dysfunctional; extremely dirty shower floor which also reflects poor construction; no curtain at one of the largest privacy-infringing windows; a door between this unit and the adjacent unit about which nothing has been mentioned in advance (breach of privacy); no protective covers on any of the mattresses; well-used unwashed sleeping pads that did not smell or were clean, the majority of which were without protective covers; a sink rim that has been very poorly repaired; floor tiles so damaged do not belong in a unit rented at a reasonably expensive rate; there is no carpeting in the unit; so there were also no information or service documents for our inspection in the unit. The sea view photo is misleading as it is only the first floor that can enjoy this.

Onaangenaam.

Ons was op 'n uitgebreide Weskus-vakansie. Hierdie was ons laaste aand. Het juis na aanleiding van die pragtige foto's hierop besluit. Groot teleurstelling. Verwaarloos. Geen gordyne aan voorkant vir privaatheid nie. Geraas en beweging juis teenaan die woonstel met min privaatheid.

Unpleasant.

We were on an extended West Coast vacation. This was our last night. Decided on this precisely because of the beautiful photos. Big disappointment. Neglected. No curtains in front for privacy. Noise and movement right next to the apartment with little privacy.

Gerieflik en netjies.

Die kamers is baie netjies en volledig toegerus. Ons kon opmerk dat dit nog nie voltooide verblyf was nie, maar dit wat daar was aanvaarbaar. Die waarde vir geld sou ek se is effe duur maar die ruim huis en gerieflike braai area kompenseer. Dit is ook lekker naby aan die strand. Ons sal sekerlik weer hier kom bly.

Comfortable and neat.

The rooms are very neat and fully equipped. It was obvious that it is still a work in progress but it was acceptable. A bit expensive but the space and the nice braai area makes up for it. Also close to the beach. We will definitely be back.

Het nie aan die verwagtinge voldoen nie.

Ons was vriendelik ontvang en die eenheid was netjies. Uitsig was baie mooi. Die trap na bo is sonder relings en dus onveilig. Die TV het geen sein gehad nie. Die vensters by die bed het nie blindings of gordyne nie, dus was die kamer nie donker genoeg vir 'n goeie nagrus nie. Die koffie was nie hervul vir die tweede dag se verblyf nie. Eenheid het nie 'n yskas nie, en die opsigter het ons toegang gegee tot 'n ander eenheid met yskas om ons kos in te bêre. Ongelukkig het van die kos verdwyn teen die volgende oggend. Geen behoorlike restaurant binne loopafstand nie. Die plaaslike kroeg/restaurant reg langs Goblin's Inn was raserig tot laat.

Did not live up to expectations.

We were kindly received and the unit was tidy. View was very nice. The stairs to the top have no railings and are therefore unsafe. The TV had no signal. The windows by the bed do not have blinds or curtains, so the room was not dark enough for a good night's rest. The coffee was not refilled for the second day's stay. Unit does not have a refrigerator, and the caretaker gave us access to another unit with a refrigerator to store our food. Unfortunately, some of the food had disappeared by the next morning. No proper restaurant within walking distance. The local bar/restaurant right next to Goblin's Inn was noisy until late.

Average stay.

Goblin's Inn is right next to a pub/restaurant and they have karaoke and play music until late (nothing the owners can do about this though, and I wouldn't blame them). Only 1 teaspoon and no glasses. There was also overflow of water from rooms above us, and every time they bathed/showered or went to the toilet, the overflow ran down/over right in front of our kitchen window. There was an old TV with only 1 channel, which we struggled to get on, but on Saturday DStv was installed in the room, so that's positive. Place was neat and we couldn't have any more complaints.

Die verblyf is nie soos op die foto's op die webwerf nie.

Waarvoor ek vooruit betaal het is een slaapkamer. Wat ek gekry het was by 'n ander bestemming met 'n ander naam. Dit was bloot 'n motorhawe-grootte met 'n bed en 'n stort. Moes 'n uur wag om iemand te bel om gehelp te word met aankoms.

The accommodation is not like the photos on the website.

What I paid for in advance is one bedroom. What I got was at a different destination with a different name. It was simply a car port size with a bed and a shower. Had to wait an hour to call someone to be helped on arrival.

Goblin's Inn is gerieflik naby aan Sea Trader waar huweliksonthaal was.

1. Vullis drommetjie was vol gemors van vorige kliënt. 2. Slegs 'n badhanddoek per persoon - geen gesighanddoek. 3. Langs Goblin's Inn is 'n "PUB" (Sunshine something). Rumoer tot na 03:00 in die oggend - skep baie swak atmosfeer reg langs Goblin's Inn. 4. Geen Naambord op gebou - kon Goblin's Inn nie vind nie. 5. Kon motor net op sypaadjie parkeer - onveilig - veral met besope mense langs Goblin's Inn.

Goblin's Inn is conveniently close to Sea Trader where wedding reception was.

1. Rubbish bin was full of rubbish from previous guests. 2. Only a bath towel per person - no face towel. 3. Next to Goblin's Inn is a "PUB" (Sunshine something). Noisy till after 03:00 in the morning - creates very bad atmosphere right next to Goblin's Inn. 4. No signage on the building - couldn't find Goblin's Inn. 5. Could only park car on the sidewalk - unsafe - especially with drunk people next to Goblin's Inn.

Unsafe, no one knew what was going on, definitely much better places for the same price. Not worth the money at all.
