Aangenaam.

Gasvrou baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. 'n Paar voorstelle ter verbetering: 1. 'n Houer in die yskas vir water sal gerieflik wees, veral op 'n warm dag. 2. Ons is gewoond aan komplimentêre koffie, tee en melk, ens. by meeste gastehuise - veral as mens net vir 1 nag oorbly. 3. Die waaier in die kamer lawaai baie. 4. Die stort se glas is gekraak en water spuit op interessante plekke uit.

Pleasant.

Hostess very friendly and helpful. A few suggestions for improvement: 1. A container in the fridge for water would be convenient, especially on a hot day. 2. We are used to complimentary coffee, tea and milk etc. at most guesthouses - especially if you only stay for 1 night. 3. The fan in the room makes a lot of noise. 4. The shower's glass is cracked and water is spraying out in interesting places.

Meerlust 12 's response

Hi Margaretha,

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoering, ons sal beslis na die stort kyk en die nodige veranderinge aanbring.

Daar is wel 'n 1 liter waterkan beskikbaar in die kombuiskas.

12 Meerlust is 'n selfsorg eenheid, ons is glad nie 'n gastehuis nie. Ons het al in die verlede koffie en tee saamgegee, maar het dan besef dit word meer 'n gastehuis en dan verwag die gaste ook ander eienskappe van 'n gastehuis bv daaglikse skoonmaakdienste, etes ens. Ons gaan ongelukkig hou by selfsorg opsie, waar ons slegs die volgende verskaf:
1 x toilet rol
Handdoeke
Opwas lappie
Skottelgoed seep
Handseep in die badkamer.
Sout en peper
Swart sak
Linne

Dan op versoek kan daar skoon linne en hoeddoeke na 3 dae aangevra word

Groete
Anna-Marie

Lekker en gerieflik.

Het baie lekker gebly. Die ligging was sentraal tussen die wynlande en die Kaap self.

Meerlust 12 's response

Middag Leonie,
Jammer dat julle ons nie ingelig het van die probleme tydens die verblyf nie, maar ons gaan probeer om dit reg te stel vir die volgende gaste.
Ons het bietjie die plek gefumigate nadat julle weg is vir die miere.
Ons vervang slegs die handdoeke vir gaste wat 5 dae of langer bly ( julle verblyf was slegs 3 dae) , ons sal wel dit vervang indien dit aangevra word. Jammer dat julle nie die vrymoedigheid gehad het om ons te laat weet tydens julle verblyf nie.
Groete Anna-Marie

Kuier was lekker. Akkommodasie het te kort geskiet.

Meerlust is seker reg vir mense wat net 'n dag of 2 bly. Ons het 10 dae gebly. Die beddegoed en handdoeke is nie een keer vervang nie. Die asblik is glad nie skoongemaak nie. Daar is geen voorsiening gemaak vir wanneer daar beurtkrag is nie. Geen lampe of kerse of iets nie. So vir langtermyn definitief nie.

Visit was nice. Accommodation fell short.

Meerlust is probably right for people who only stay a day or 2. We stayed 10 days. The bed linen and towels were not changed once. The trash was not cleaned at all. No provision has been made for when there is load shedding. No lamps or candles or anything. So definitely not for the long term.

Bitter koud

Ek sal aanbeveel hul sit koffie, tee, suiker en melk in die huisie as verwelkoming vir gaste. Die kussings is regtig pap, dus kom dit voor asof daar genoeg kussings is maar mens moet 4 opmekaar sit om as 2 te dien. Dis verskriklik koud binne die huisie so ons het verkluim. Daar glad nie genoeg komberse nie. Ons het vir dieselfde geld getrek na 'n woonstel op die strand wat baie verwelkomend en warm was.

Bitterly cold

I would recommend that they put coffee, tea, sugar and milk in the cottage as a welcome for guests. The pillows are really soft, so it appears as if there are enough pillows but you have to put 4 together to serve as 2. It's terribly cold inside the house so we got cold. Not enough blankets at all. We moved for the same money to an apartment on the beach which was very welcoming and warm.

Dit was rustig.

Ons hosts kan net bietjie meer met ons interact het. Dit was lekker om op jou eie te wees maar jy wil ook met diie mense kommunikeer want hle moet jou leer ken en ons moet voel ons hoort daar want ons is in hele plek as 'n familie. Ons waardeer die privacy maar wys darem dat julle ook ons respect soos ons julle plek respect.

It was peaceful.

Our hosts can only interact with us a little more. It was nice to be on your own but you also want to communicate with these people because they need to get to know you and we need to feel like we belong there because we are in the whole place as a family. We appreciate the privacy but at least show that you also respect us as we respect your place.

Alles was die moeite werd gewees, veilige parkering en alles was aangenaam vandat ons daar gearriveer het, net televisiestelsel wat ons bietjie laat sukkel het, maar ek sal Meerlust aanraai vir ander ook. Goeie plek.
