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.

We just wanted a place to sleep for the night. We got it plus nice view.
We had a nice stay. Building and decor need renovation. More surface area to put your things down in the bathroom would be welcome. A shelf in the shower for shampoo etc. will also help. Furthermore, friendly reception and a safe overnight stay. Thank you.

Daar was geen naam/nommer op gebou nie en die gasvrou het eers na die 3rde oproep geantwoord.
This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.
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.

Very safe, quiet environment, neat and clean.
St. Helena Bay is probably one of the safest places in SA! Definitely worth a weekend visit! Goblin's Inn provides neat accommodation in a very quiet street very close to the sea. There is a coffee machine, sugar and Cremora, but if you love tea and milk - remember to bring your own! More than enough double and single plugs, a small fridge and microwave are provided. Dear, friendly receptionist. The little office is just up the street, about 3 or 4 houses from Goblin's Inn itself.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
