Lekker geslaap.

Amore was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Goeie ligging. Lekker groot ruim kamer (nr 1). Neon Moon is 'n gastehuis met baie potensiaal as alles wat stukkend is net reggemaak word en meer aandag gegee word aan klein goedjies, bv. 'n stortmatjie, matrasbasisoortreksels, gordynhakkies, tee/koffie. Ons was 3 gaste, maar net een handdoek was voorsien. Die toiletpapier was ook min. Ons sal wel weer daar bly.

Slept well.

Amore was very friendly and helpful. Good location. Nice big spacious room (no 1). Neon Moon is a guest house with a lot of potential if everything that is broken is just fixed and more attention is paid to small things, e.g. a shower mat, mattress base covers, curtain hooks, tea/coffee. We were 3 guests, but only one towel was provided. The toilet paper was also scarce. We will definitely stay there again.

It was in a good location. The room was clean.

The gate not working was a worry and it was very heavy, which made opening and closing an issue and a safety concern. There were no utensils, just 1 coffee cup for 2 people. It was nice and clean though, and the aircon was a definite must.

Okay for one night only.

We arrived to be greeted by the hostess and her children, very friendly. The place was fine, it just needs some TLC. Maintenance. There was no light in the bathroom, which they replaced immediately after reporting. They forgot our towels. No soap amenities. Very itchy toilet paper. Leaky toilet. The door needs to be fixed because it scraped along the wall causing damage. The bed was lumpy. It's okay for a shower and overnight, but not two nights. The gate remote does not work - open manually and is very heavy. The walls need to be cleaned - the ceilings are sagging. The spare door has a window at the top which was broken. Aircon needs a service. Not very soundproof.

Too small for two people.

Although the hostess is very good, the room is extremely small and the whole room was filled with black ants. There was no basin to wash the cups. The gate was broken and had to be opened by hand. It is very heavy and difficult to open and close. The warm water in the shower was either very hot or cold. The bedding was clean and we had fresh towels.

Onaangenaam.

Ongelukkig was daar nie matte nie. Die badkamer was ook nie veilig nie. Daar was nie badkamer matte nie, en muurverf was orals gemors en het nie 'n aangename reuk gehad nie. Daar was ook 'n tekort aan lepels en koffie, en die televisie het nie gewerk nie. Gelukkig was die beddens wel skoon.

Unpleasant.

Unfortunately there were no carpets. The bathroom was not safe either. There were no bathroom rugs, and wall paint was all over the place and didn't have a pleasant smell. There was also a shortage of spoons and coffee, and the television did not work. Fortunately the beds were clean.

Very nice and quiet.

The unit, Room No5 needs a lot of attention, although very comfortable there, bedding (linen) very clean and tidy, but no cleaning service. Don't know exactly where reception was, had to leave key in door when we checked out. Security can become a problem as anyone can walk around the premises as the security gate does not work. Will be able to use Noen Moon again in the future.

Teleurstellend.

Jammer, maar die ervaring was onaangenaam. Gastekamers kort aandag. Onveilig, hek word bedags oop en toe geskuif, kamer nie op standaard nie, aircon buitewerking, geen verwarmer, matte vuil, gangdeur bly klap, wind waai onderdeur kamerdeur, geen badkamerdeur. Beddegoed was skoon en bed gemaklik. Geskuif na kleiner kamer waar aircon werk. Die kamers is ongelukkig nie op standaard nie.

Disappointing.

Sorry, but the experience was unpleasant. Guest rooms need attention. Unsafe, gate is opened and closed during the day, room not up to standard, aircon not working, no heater, carpets dirty, hallway door keeps slamming, wind blows under room door, no bathroom door. Bedding was clean and bed comfortable. Moved to smaller room where aircon works. Unfortunately the rooms are not up to standard.

Ons het huistoe gery nog dieselfde aand.

Gastehuis se hek is nie elektronies nie. Moes dit self oop- en toeskuif. Ons het onveilig gevoel vir ons voertuig. Ons deur se handvatsel was los, so enige persoon sal maklik kan inbreek in die kamer. Toe ek die aand bel en sê ons gaan maar eerder terugry huistoe toe het die bestuurderes glad nie eers gevra hoekom nie. Gastehuis se ligging is nie ideaal nie. Kamer kort maar 'n bietjie TLC. Daar was nie eers melk/poeiermelk vir koffie nie. En ek wag nou nog vir die wifi password.

We drove home the same evening.

Guesthouse's gate is not electronic. Had to open and close it myself. We felt unsafe for our vehicle. Our door handle was loose, so any person could easily break into the room. When I called that evening and said we were going to drive back home instead, the drivers didn't even ask why. Guesthouse's location is not ideal. Room just needs a little TLC. There wasn't even milk/powdered milk for coffee. And I'm still waiting for the wifi password.

Goeiedag.

Die hek was nie gesluit nie omdat ons 'n funksie gehad het, ek sluit die ek in die aand. Ons sal verseker kyk om die kamers op te knap en die deur se hand vatsel reg te maak. Ek het nie gevra waarom julle ry nie, het nie geweet of dit privaat was nie, het gedink indien daar enige iets is wat pla julle sou vra. Vriendelike groete Amore

Nie gelukkig

Ons is glad nie gelukkig met Neon Moon Guesthouse. 1. Met aankoms het ons kamer 1 gekry en nie kamer 5 soos bespreek nie. 2. Daar was nog bollie in toilet en geen toiletpapier. 3. Die kwaliteit van toiletpapier was die goedkoop, bruin toiletpapier en moes Saterdag weer vra vir 'n rolletjie. 4. Daar was geen suiker, moes vra vir dit. 5. Geen toiletborsel. 6. Geen seep. 7. TV stukkend. 8. Elektroniese hek werk nie, moet hom oop en toe skuif. 9. Lampie se aan/af sit knoppie se bedrading oop. 10. Lig nie eers 'n cover op.

Not happy

We are not happy at all with Neon Moon Guesthouse. 1. On arrival we were given room 1 and not room 5 as booked. 2. There was still balls in the toilet and no toilet paper. 3. The quality of toilet paper was the cheap, brown toilet paper and had to ask for a roll again on Saturday. 4. There was no sugar, had to ask for it. 5. No toilet brush. 6. No soap. 7. TV broken. 8. Electronic gate not working, have to move it open and close. 9. Lamp's on/off switch button's wiring open. 10. Don't even lift a cover.

Slegs die normale kamers nie die moeite werd vir die ekstra R200pn vir die honeymoon-suite.

Ons kamer was foutiewelik aangeteken. Nadat ons geskakel en bevestig het ons is op pad en sal na die gewone inkloktyd aanmeld. Dit was baie teleurstellend dat die kamer glad nie gereed was nie, en ons was eers ongeveer na 5 uur by die perseel. Ons het spesiaal die ekstra fooi per nag betaal wat die honeymoon-suite is. Ongelukkig was daar geen microwave in die kamer; ons moes die gemeenskaplike kombuis gebruik het. Die bedliggie het nie 'n globe nie, die hooflig was ook buite werking. Ek het gevoel hulle kon ons tegemoetgekom het, en normale fooi gehef het deurdat dit nie 'n honeymoon-suite was nie.

Only the normal rooms not worth the extra R200pn for the honeymoon suite.

Our room was booked in error. After calling and confirming we are on our way and will check in after the usual check in time. It was very disappointing that the room was not ready at all, and we were only at the premises after about 5 hours. We specially paid the extra fee per night which is the honeymoon suite. Unfortunately there was no microwave in the room; we should have used the common kitchen. The bedside light did not have a globe, the main light was also out of order. I felt they could have accommodated us, and charged normal fee as it was not a honeymoon suite.

Netjies maar kort bietjie herstelwerk.

Geen spieël in kamer om jou hare droog te blaas nie. Een teel is af in stort. Gordyn se hakkies is nie almal ingehaak nie en hang slordig. Gordynhaak val uit die muur uit. Vir dié prys het ek al in mooier plekke geslaap. Hangkas se rakke het vetkolle op.

No mirror in room to blow dry your hair. One teal is down in shower. Curtain hooks are not all hooked in and hang sloppily. Curtain hook falls out of the wall. For this price, I have slept in nicer places. Hanging cupboard shelves have grease spots on them.

Our stay was okay, the host was friendly, but had to be seeked out because there wasn't any form of communicating with them whilst in the same yard.

The cellphone/phone was on voicemail throughout, the emails were not being responded to, the main gate was not working and one had to open and close it themselves which was not an issue during the day, but was risky at night. There is no proper reception where one can go or call to get more information. More attention is needed from the host to the guest in terms of servicing the rooms every day and finding out what needs to be replaced in the rooms every morning. The host was friendly when we did find her. The room was clean and welcoming, but can they please make sure that all their TVs and decoders have their remotes and that they add on solar lights and put buckets of water outside the rooms to flush the toilets as they know that South Africa is going through a crisis of water and light. It was uncomfortable having to drive out to find toilets in town because we didn't want to sit with a smell in the room. And for every little thing we needed we had to go downstairs to look for the host because their cell phone is on voicemail and they don't have an alternative number. I would recommend Neon Moon because it's very clean, but they don't go the extra mile for their guests.

Good day Mamokete, thank you so much for your honest review. I really do appreciate honesty as that allows us to continuously improve our service. We take note of your concerns, and trust me, it will immediately be addressed. We apologise for the water and electricity problems, we are in the process of putting measures in place, to provide alternative power and water supplies at our premises. Our guests are our family, and we always want family to come back again and stay with us. Neon Moon Guesthouse
