Baie onvriendelike mense.

Die blyplek is onveilig en beslis nie soos beskryf nie. Die kussings is baie hard. Dit is beslis nie die geld werd nie en ek sal nie weer daar oornag nie.

Very unfriendly people.

The accommodation is unsafe and certainly not as described. The pillows are very hard. It is definitely not worth the money and I will not stay there again.

Ons is jammer, sal nie dit aanbeveel nie.

Glad nie die moeite werd nie. Onpersoonlik, nie baie skoon nie, afgeskeep vir R500 per dag per persoon.

We are sorry, would not recommend it.

Not worth it at all. Impersonal, not very clean, neglected for R500 per day per person.

Nie die beste en nie wat verwag is.

Geen toegang met aankoms, eenheid 4 is sub-standaard.

Ons het heerlik gebly in 'n netjiese, skoon eenheid.

Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang. Hy het ons selfs gehelp om 'n app af te laai sodat ons van Uber-dienste gebruik kan maak. Die plek is baie sentraal en ons kon na die winkelsentrum stap. Die tuine is pragtig en goed versorg. Sal enige tyd weer daar oornag.

We stayed in a neat, clean unit.

We were warmly welcomed. He even helped us download an app so we can use Uber services. The place is very central and we could walk to the mall. The gardens are beautiful and well cared for. Will stay there again anytime.

Was gemaklik en bekostigbaar.

Daar was wel geen stoof in die eenheid nie, wat self-catering maar moeilik maak, ons kon net kos koop wat warm gemaak kan word in die mikrogolf oond. Verder het ons lekker gebly. Parkering was bietjie moeilik met ons groot voertuig.

Was comfortable and affordable.

There was no stove in the unit, which makes self-catering difficult, we could only buy food that could be heated in the microwave oven. Other than that we had a nice stay. Parking was a bit difficult with our large vehicle.

Suitable for what we needed: a clean, safe place to sleep for two nights.

Positive: Very friendly, helpful host; bed comfortable; clean room and bathroom; enough hot water; very centrally located. Negative: Amenities insufficient. No shower gel or body lotion. There was foam bath, but no bath. Coffee, creamer, sugar and toilet paper not replenished. We (thankfully!) didn't need extra toilet paper, but a cup of coffee in the morning would have been nice. On that note: as there is a fridge in the kitchenette, why not put a small jug of fresh milk in there? Also, a plunger with decent coffee instead of instant coffee would go a long way to get guests to return.

Good day Sonja

Thank you for your positive review. Hope to see you back soon!

Netjies, skoon en waarde vir geld.

Ons het twee keer hier geslaap. Een keer 2 aande en die ander keer 1 aand. Die eenheid het net 2 kaste met rakke en 1 reling om klere te hang. As ons vir 'n langer tydperk wil kom sal hier beslis nie genoeg pakplek wees nie, maar vir kort tye is dit die moeite werd. Na genoeg aan winkelsentrums, maar tog ook stil.

Neat, clean and value for money.

We slept here twice. Once 2 nights and the other one night. The unit only has 2 cupboards with shelves and 1 railing to hang clothes. If we want to come for a longer period, there will certainly not be enough storage space, but for short periods it is worth it. Enough to shopping malls, but still quiet.

Swak diens.

Het 'n bespreking gemaak vir 3 mans op enkelbeddens vir werksdoeleindes. Daar was net 2 enkelbeddens. Die derde persoon moes op 'n opblaasmatras slaap wat onaanvaarbaar is. Het betaal vir 3 enkelbeddens.

Poor service.

Made a reservation for 3 men on single beds for work purposes. There were only 2 single beds. The third person had to sleep on an inflatable mattress which is unacceptable. Paid for 3 single beds.

Onplesierig.

Groot gesukkel gewees om sleutels te bekom en een van die twee kamers in baie vervalle staat.

Nightmare accommodation.

We were supposed to stay one night at Jessica's B&B for a function we had there, we ended up driving the 200 km home after our event at 23:00 as the accommodation was terrible and I refused to stay in a place like that due to the following: The pillow cases on the bed were ripped and the pillows themselves were terrible. The kitchen looked like a makeshift outside room and had very little privacy, no windows, walls were made out of bamboo sticks, basin was a plastic outside basin with pipes going through the makeshift wall. The towels they offered were stained and dirty, the toilet in the bathroom flusher was broken and held together with a bit of plastic and shower looked horrendously dirty. No DStv was offered, there was a smart TV in the room with streaming offered however internet connection was poor and could not watch anything anyway. We often travel to Umhlanga for business and functions and unfortunately the places we normally stay at were fully booked for the weekend.

Baie lekker gebly.

Net vir een aand oorgeslaap op 'n werksreis. Bed was baie gemaklik, goeie WiFi en Smart TV met Netflix was 'n bonus. Swembad lyk net soos in die foto. Was nie mal oor die stort in die bad nie, maar ontbyt was goed en oor die algemeen goeie waarde vir geld.

Only slept over for one evening on a business trip. Bed was comfortable, good WiFi and Smart TV with Netflix is a bonus. Swimming pool looks just like the photo. Was not a fan of the shower in the bath, but the breakfast was good and in general value for money.
