Convenient and comfortable.
Comfortable, neat and comfortable accommodation with everything we need. The owner welcomed us kindly and showed us everything. I would suggest that a separate WiFi router be provided for the apartment as the WiFi was very bad and we couldn't connect the TV at all. Extra pillows maybe also for the sofa bed. But overall we had a nice stay. Air cooling was a lifesaver in Kimberley's heat.

No lines on walls, advertisement indicates that there is WiFi, was not a problem for us.
On our arrival the owner was not very friendly. He started on us immediately because we were 4 and only booked for 3. I tried to explain. Fortunately, his wife arrived, a very nice lady, and we were able to come to an agreement. We immediately found other accommodation the next day. Felt terribly uncomfortable after the man's approach.

As n gas, gee ons vir jou ook n lae resensie.
Jy het ons kraan oopgelos vandat julle uit is (tussen 9 en 10 AM) tot en met12:30 die middag. (Gelukkig was geen proppe in nie).
Julle het ook vensters oop gelos terwyl dit gereen het.
As n gas is dit belangrik om iemand anders se eiendom te respekteer.

Baie dankie vir u resensie,maar ongelukkig stem ons nie heeltemal saam met u oor sekere punte nie.
Daar is niks fout met die ketel nie. Dit was na u ook gebruik deur ander gaste en daar was geen kritiek. Mense se opinies oor waardes verskil so baie, ons respekteer dit.
Ons hekke is elke aand gesluit,en die deure kan ook sluit. Die woonstel is ook toegerus met ’n veiligheidshek.
Ons plek is veilig en dus voel ons dat 2/5 nie die ware terugvoering is nie en ons kan dit bevestig met vorige resensies.
Wees asb. eerlik in die vervolg wat dit aan betref.

Place centrally located, but not up to the usual standards. Although the place itself was clean, there were dirty marks on the living room sofas, the TV was old with bad picture. There was no attention to detail either. Joan's rest unfortunately did not live up to our expectations.

Netheid en waarde is juis iets waaraan ons baie aandag gee.
Ons plek is altyd skoon en dis n leun dat die banke vuil was.
Ons is nie n ster gegradeerde plek nie, maar voldoen steeds aan die verwagte vereistes vir gerieflike oorslaap met kwaliteit oorslaap geriewe. As u dus dan hoë ster gegradeerde verwagtinge het, boek dan by n ster gegradeerde plek in die vervolg.
Ons is seker nie Kimberley se diamant nie, maar definitief n wolkie met n goue randjie.

Couldn't sleep because of sprinkler system.
Every 2 minutes and 26 seconds (yes, I measured it) the sprinkler system turns on and turns off shortly thereafter. The water tank is opposite the window of the master bedroom and the noise, in the silence of the night, is deafening. I couldn't get any sleep because of this, and am tired-tired the next day. We arrived late (my fault, not Joan's Rest) and spent half an hour struggling to find Joan's Rest in the dark. Nowhere could we find a sign or the street number.

Joan's place was really clean and tidy. The bed and couch just definitely need to be replaced. It sleeps and sits no longer very comfortably. Water was nice and hot, but cold tap too tight to turn on. Hot faucet knob falls off. Furthermore, the place was really clean and very enjoyable to use. The chocolate was also special.
