Lekker goedkoop bier en die beste diens!

Ons het baie lekker gebly hier! Ons honde kon saamkom wat 'n groot bonus was en met die prys van die bier op tap, is dit net nog 'n rede om hier te bly! Die ontvangsdame is verskriklik oulik en kyk baie mooi na mense en al jou benodighede!

Nice cheap beer and the best service!

We had a great time staying here! Our dogs were able to come along which was a huge bonus and with the price of the beer on tap, it's just another reason to stay here! The receptionist is terribly cute and looks after people and all your needs very well!

Dit was 'n aangename verrassing na 'n dag se ry.

Joliens is op 'n uitstekende plek geleë. Na 'n lang dag se ry, het hulle net die regte geriewe gehad om ons welkom te laat voel en uitterus vir 'n volgende dag se reis. Daardie beefburger by Joliens Kitchen was uitstekend.

Bekostigbaar, skoon en ongelooflik gasvry.

Met oornag plek net oor die grens het ons hier opgeeindig. Wat 'n aangename verassing. Ons is ontvang met groot gasvryheid en het sommer bitter vinnig soos "locals" gevoel. Baie dankie aan Johan .

Een aand oorgeslaap. Baie naby die grens. Aandete in die restuarant was baie lekker. Mooi en skoon, alles wat jy nodig het.

Al wat nie lekker was nie, is die pype of pomp raas wanneer iemand anders om ons water gebruik. Ons het in kamer 5 geslaap. Die oggend was daar geen warm water om mee te stort nie.

Beautiful place.

Directions are not very good. Actually, there are no road signs although the Name is large on the building. Large trucks were parked at the border post, making it impossible to see the name against the building on the opposite side of the train track. A window is set high on the wall with no covering, it lets in good light but the heat of the late afternoon sun is overwhelming.

Planned as a stopover at the border.

Lived up to our expectations on convenience to the border. Immediately (I mean 50 m) after clearing Namibian immigration from SA (or before entering coming from Namibia) turn left and head over the railway crossing towards a very fancy Standard Bank branch. You are there.

Slegte pad.

Personeel is vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Pad is 'n nagmerrie en is slegs geskik vir 4x4-voertuie. Ons het vinnig vasgeval in die sand met ons Ford Tourneo-bussie en sleepwa. Beide die selfoon- en kantoornommer het nie gewerk toe ons vir hulp bel nie. Ons moes ongeveer 500 m ver stap om vir hulp te gaan vra. Ons is vinnig en professioneel gehelp om uit die sand te kom. Vanselfsprekend was ek nie baie gelukkig oor die pad nie veral na 11 ure se ry nie. Daar is 'n ander korter pad wat nie 'n vasval-risiko het nie.

Bad road

Staff are friendly and helpful. Road is a nightmare and is only suitable for 4x4 vehicles. We quickly got stuck in the sand with our Ford Tourneo van and trailer. Both the mobile and office numbers were not working when we called for help. We had to walk about 500 m to ask for help. We were quickly and professionally helped to get out of the sand. Obviously, I was not very happy about the road, especially after 11 hours of driving. There is another shorter path that does not have a risk of getting stuck.

Gemengde gevoelens.

Die plus van Jolien's is dat dit letterlik 100 m van die grenspos af is - dan weer, ook net 100 m van die oornagparkering van die langafstandvragmotors. Ons is gelukkig nie gepla daardeur nie. Dit maak Jolien's geskik vir 'n oornagstop na 'n lang pad en doanepyne. Ons was in 'n koue tyd daar. Die klipkamer en die feit dat die lugreëling nie kon warm maak nie, asook dat ons nie warm water gehad het nie, het nou nie juis gehelp nie. Die kamer is piepklein met twee enkelbeddens en 'n kroegyskassie. Daar is 'n ketel met gebottelde water, maar geen koffie/tee/melk ens. nie. Die stort en toilet is oopplan met net 'n kort skeidingsmuur na die kamergedeelte, maar oop tussen die stort en toilet. Die wasbak is ook piepklein met 'n klein spieël wat te hoog geplaas is vir my vrou om in te kon sien. Daar was geen seep in die stort se vloeibareseephouer nie. Ons het wel nie gestort weens die koue water nie. Daar is eienaardig genoeg ook net een opvoubare stoel vir buite. Die WiFi het nie gewerk binne die kamer se klipmure nie. Die beddens en beddegoed is wel van goeie gehalte en ons het goed geslaap. Die eetkamer is netjies en afgesonder van die vragmotorbestuurders se wegneemete en aansitgedeelte af. Sjef Jaco se aandete en ontbyt (nie ingesluit by die kamertarief nie) was bekostigbaar en uit die boonste rakke. Ons is ook baie mooi gehelp met 'n Namibiese sim-kaart en die insit daarvan.

Mixed feelings.

The plus of Jolien's is that it is literally 100m from the border post - then again, also only 100m from the overnight parking of the long haul trucks. Fortunately, we are not bothered by it. This makes Jolien's suitable for an overnight stop after a long road and travel pains. We were there in a cold time. The stone room and the fact that the air conditioning could not heat, as well as the fact that we did not have hot water, did not really help. The room is tiny with two single beds and a bar fridge. There is a kettle with bottled water, but no coffee/tea/milk etc. not. The shower and toilet are open plan with only a short dividing wall to the room part, but open between the shower and toilet. The sink is also tiny with a small mirror placed too high for my wife to see into. There was no soap in the shower's liquid soap dispenser. We did not shower because of the cold water. Oddly enough, there is also only one folding chair for outside. The WiFi did not work within the room's stone walls. The beds and bedding are of good quality and we slept well. The dining room is neat and separate from the truck drivers' takeaway and sit-down area. Chef Jaco's dinner and breakfast (not included in the room rate) were affordable and top notch. We were also helped very nicely with a Namibian sim card and its insertion.

Lekker plek kort voor die grens.

Jolien's is nie regtig ideaal as selfsorg nie. Daar is eintlik geen kombuisgeriewe nie. Dit gesê, was hulle baie behulpsaam om ons te help met breekgoed, bakke, ens. sodat ons kon braai. Ons kon dit egter nie vir hulle was nie, want die wasbakkie in die badkamer is piepklein.

Jolien's is not really ideal as self-catering. There are actually no kitchen facilities. That said, they were very helpful in helping us with crockery, bowls, etc. so we could braai. However, we couldn't wash it for them because the sink in the bathroom is tiny.

Moenie te veel verwag van hul kliëntediens nie.

Die kliëntediens is swak. Daar was nie water die oggend nie en ek kon niemand in die hande kry op die nommer wat vir ons gegee is nie (na menige probeerslae). Die plek moet verstaan die rede dat mense daar oorbly is vir 'n bed en badkamer, so om nie water te hê nie is vir my net soos 'n bed sonder 'n matras. Daar was nie koffie en tee in die kamer nie: die bestuurder het vir die helper gesê om te bring, maar dit het nooit gebeur nie.

Translate to English.

Don't expect too much from their customer service.

The customer service is poor. There was no water in the morning and I could not get hold of anyone on the number given to us (after many attempts). The place needs to understand the reason people stay there for a bed and bathroom, so not having water is just like a bed without a mattress to me. There was no coffee and tea in the room: the manager told the helper to bring, but it never happened.

All about the location, right on top of the border post.

Basic overnight stay. Very comfortable and neat bedroom. We enjoyed a meal, which was of good quality. Unfortunately, the showers did not have hot water. However, this was a temporary problem and I am sure it was rectified as soon as we let the owner know. We left the next morning.

Comfortable overnight stop.

Rooms was clean and comfortable. Location very close to border with lots of trucks waiting overnight. We chose to have a quick braai and enjoy the sunset and it was pleasant.

Google Maps is wrong. So arrived grumpy.

Everything about it is perfect but the directions are appalling and no signage. It is right at the border. Literally as you leave the covered roof of the border turn left and it's 100 m away just across the railway line. We drove for 20 minutes at night, it was very stressful.

Uitstekende oornagverblyf.

Ons het baie lekker gebly by Jolien's Rest Camp. Die chalet was baie netjies en skoon en die gasvrou baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ons sal vir seker weer daar bespreek!

Gerieflik en bekostigbaar.

Die kamers is klein, maar is gerieflik en baie goeie waarde vir geld. Dit is goed geleë reg langs die Ariamsvlei-grenspos wat veral gedurende die aandklokreël vir reisigers baie help, want mens kan sommer vroeg-vroeg op die pad wees. Alhoewel dit reg langs die hoofpad is, is dit nog steeds redelik stil ten spyte van al die vragmotors.

Convenient and affordable.

The rooms are small but comfortable and very good value for money. It is well located right next to the Ariamsvlei border post, which is especially helpful for travelers during the curfew, because you can be on the road very early. Even though it's right next to the main road, it's still pretty quiet despite all the trucks.

Baie gerieflik.

Jolien was baie gasvry, probeer gerus haar tuisgemaakte gemsbokwors - dit is uitstekend!

Was 100% wat ons benodig het.

Dit was vir ons net 'n een nag oornag, op pad na ons bestemming. Dit het afstandgewys 100% gepas.

Was 100% what we needed.

It was just a one night stopover for us, on the way to our destination. It remotely matched 100%.
