Corrie is a good hostess and her meals are top notch.
Room 5 was allocated to us. I was uncomfortable with the fact that the room opens directly into the dining room. The tables are directly opposite and next to the door. Would not recommend room 5. WiFi password is not shown anywhere. Had to ask. Other guests asked us. We and other guests did not know that meals were available if booked in advance.

Although the place looks a bit neglected, we had a nice stay there. The hostess made an effort to make us feel at home.
We had breakfast there once and it was good. The one time we enjoyed dinner was special. We could choose the main course between chicken, lamb chops or whole lamb neck with vegetables. Real farm food. All the guests chatted comfortably around the table and were able to exchange information about each other. The room was very cold and it would be nice if electric blankets could be provided. Linen and towels are a bit tired.

Hi ek wil net om verskoning vra vir jul ongerief. Kamieskroon het n groot water probleem. Die Munisipaliteit gee net 2 ure per dag vir die dorp water en dan is dit tenke met pompe wat ons gebruik. So as die krag af is kan die pomp nie loop nie. Ek as eienaar is nou self hier vir die hele seisoen dat as hier n probleem kom, dan is ons hier.

Things were a bit busy during flower time, we had a nice stay though. Marigold is not luxurious, but clean, tidy and value for money. There were problems with water every now and then, but they were soon repaired with a night's rest. We would prefer a shower over a bath, big round bodies find it difficult to get in and out of a bath.

Disappointing.
We slept nice and warm, but customer service was not to our liking. The place is unkempt. For example, the doors close with difficulty or not at all. The power kicks out because plugs are too heavily loaded and extension cords to stoves etc. are installed. The fridge in communal kitchen did not work.

Outdated building offering poor value for money.
Your first impression of the place, even from the street, and more so when you enter the dining room, is that the place is old and shabby. Room 5's finish is poor - the painting was done by an amateur years ago. The sink's one faucet is not attached to the sink and if you try to open or close the faucet, the whole faucet first turns a little. The mattress is weak - should have been replaced years ago. There is an empty TV cabinet in the room that just takes up space. It serves no purpose. The water supply works from a pressure pump and it is impossible to balance the hot and cold water supply in the shower. One moment you are burning and when you turn the taps a little it's just cold water again. The staff were very nice and helpful - they made special custard for us one night when it was already time to go home. The food is excellent - breakfast and dinner.

Disappointed
The place is very neat and clean, but that's where it ends. We didn't enjoy rain and crawled in early. As the night progressed the lights went out and there was no water. When standing up, all 3 groups of people had to scramble for lights. There were candles with no matches or candle holders. We had to carry bottles of water around to flush the toilets. I sent a message to the owner, but got no response. Furthermore, Lekkeslaap markets them as a BnB, but there was no breakfast. The lady who received us threw up and said that they no longer serve breakfast for more than a year, but offered to make breakfast, for a price. Still the notice on the front door shows that it is Gousblom BnB. This visit was extremely disappointing, at a time when the economy is pressing and one expects service providers to put their best foot forward.

Room is neat and very spacious, although totally impractical. There is no work place or chair available in the room. If one wanted to use a computer like that, one had to do it in the dining room. There is a common lounge with TV (who watches what?) available. Dinner was good country food - just a real shame we are non-smokers and although there are no smoking signs in the rooms, the hostess smoked in the kitchen and the whole dining room stank of smoke so much that the food had a hard time going down. No hot water was available the next morning and we had to settle for bitterly cold water. When we reported this to hostess when she arrived much later, the explanation was that the power "tripped". We only stayed one night instead of the two nights we booked for.

A disappointment.
Gousblom B&B Guest House was a disappointment for us. Gousblom advertised that it had only one self-catering unit and when I made our reservation about a month before our visit, I specifically asked for it because my husband has a special diet and so we always stay in self-catering. The booking was confirmed. Upon our arrival, the manager (not the owner) informed us that the self-catering unit has already been occupied by a person who made a booking a long time ago and who regularly stays there. She told us that the owner said she had to put a small stove on the counter in the room that was used as the dining room for the guests and we could put our perishable goods in the fridge in the same room, but it is also where the guesthouse's goods are stored. The manager was very helpful and apparently very embarrassment because I was not happy, but it was already late in the afternoon and very cold and we didn't have the energy to drive back to Springbok. But to our surprise, 3 more couples arrived and were under the impression that they had booked the self-catering unit. The one lady was terribly angry and demanded that her deposit be refunded and they were gone. The other two couples also stored their perishable goods with ours in the fridge. I have already reported this situation to LekkeSlaap and the owner replied by saying that we and the people in the self-catering unit were the only people in the guesthouse that night. It's not true because that night there were 12 people at the table for dinner. We didn't want to prepare food in the dining room with so many other people who had to eat there too, so I also ordered the meal and we gave my husband some of his leftover food from the previous day. We feel that the owner did not act in good faith by accepting our booking knowing that the place has already been booked. We feel deceived and will not go back there. I hope future guests will not be caught in the same trap. The highlight for us was Wilima, the manager's willingness to accommodate us and the good company we enjoyed with the other guests that night. Otherwise, the guesthouse was okay and unfortunately on our second day there was a power outage for the whole Namaqualand from 6 am until just before 10 pm. It was beyond everyone's control and fortunately for the manager, it was only us that night in the guesthouse and we used our own portable gas stove to cook for my husband and I had dinner with the managers. The other people were still in the self-catering unit.

Will not stay there again.
Aircon does not work, plug above sink very dangerous, cupboard is crooked, too afraid to put something on it or take something off e.g. glasses, one TV in the house with several guests does not work. Not everyone wants to watch the same channel.

Cheap but did not feel safe.
Kindly received. The room was ok but the shower and toilet were constantly dripped. Nothing to do in Kamieskroon and did not feel safe either.

Hallo Ernie, ek is jammer vir toilet se spoel. Ons probeer so ver moontlik as ons bewus is van 'n fout by iets, dit so gou as moontlik herstel. Die hond is ongelukkig die buurman se hond.

Extremely disappointed.
I'm not one to complain normally, but this was shocking. We arrived just after 2pm and there was no water available! Couldn't use any shower, toothbrush or toilet. Throughout the night we were left like that and even the next morning we were told that we could not take a shower. It is clear that nothing is being done about the problem. Nothing is said until you get there and your money has already been paid and you have no other option but to stay. Furthermore, there are not even enough chairs/seats for everyone in the guest house and you have to sit on your bed! Extremely poor and extremely disappointed!

Bad.
Very bad and not worth the money. Ran around for space for us. Placed in a room, all of our clothes are lying on the floor because there is no space to hang it. Owner needs to pay more attention.

Geseende dag,

Not what we expected.
Gousblom Guest House on Kamieskroon was a "run-down guest house" that had seen better days and definitely needed a lot of TLC! The place was clean and tidy and we were received very kindly. The meals we ordered were also flavorful, we ate well and the staff made a lot of effort, thank you very much!
