Too short.

Yes, I would, but they need to add a noise rule as the noise level is too high with the vacationers.

Netjies, mooi en gemaklik!

Baie netjies en homely. Vir seker een van die beter backpacker stoppe waar ek al was. Boomryk, lekker spasie en verskillende vertrekke waar jy kan ontspan. Die gasvrou het ons goed geakkommodeer en haar diens was baie goed. Vir seker 'n lekker oorslaap!

Very neat and homely. For sure one of the better backpacker stops I've been to. Tree-rich, nice space and different rooms where you can relax. The hostess accommodated us well and her service was very good. For sure a nice sleepover!

Regte backpacker opset.

Met ons aankoms was die kamer wat ons geboek het nog nie beskikbaar nie omdat dit dubbel bespreek is. Ons is toe 'n ander kamer aangebied wat nie te sleg was nie. Ons het net daar geslaap. Die tuin en voetpaadjies het aandag nodig.

Real backpacker setup.

When we arrived, the room we booked was not yet available because it was double booked. We were then offered another room which wasn't too bad. We just slept there. The garden and footpaths need attention.

Goeie fasiliteit, maar nie geskik vir my doel nie.

Alhoewel ons bespreking en intekening vlot verloop het, is hierdie nie die tipe verblyf wat ek verwag het nie. Park House Lodge sou ek eerder beskryf as 'n "backpacker" fasiliteit as 'n "lodge". Die kamer waarin ek gebly het, is baie minimalisties. Die MacGuyver-herstelwerk aan die bed was kommerwekkend en die matras moet eerder vervang word.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Good facility but not suitable for my purpose.

Although our booking and check-in went smoothly, this is not the type of stay I expected. I would describe Park House Lodge more as a "backpacker" facility than a "lodge". The room I stayed in is very minimalistic. The MacGuyver repairs to the bed were alarming and the mattress needs replacing instead.

Dit was net nice.

Al het ons net daar geslaap, het ek so deur die plekkie geloop en dit lyk ongelooflik. Ek sal definitely weer daar boek, maar die keer vir langer en dankie vir die goeie diens wat ons gekry het. Die kamer was netjies en als op plek.

Dit was oraait om een nag oor te slaap, maar sal nie vir langer daar bly nie.

Voldoende vir 1 nag se oorslaap, niks meer nie. Baie steil trappe, geen glase in kamers of koffie fasiliteite nie. Dit is 'n back-packers, maar word nie op 'n lekekrslaap so geadverteer nie.

It was fine for a one night stay, but wouldn't stay there for longer.

Sufficient for 1 night's sleep, nothing more. Very steep stairs, no glasses in rooms or coffee facilities. It is a back-packers, but is not advertised as such on a laycr sleep.

This is a backpackers, not family friendly at all.

This was the worst experience. WhatsApp interaction with host/receptionist. Communal toilets and kitchen. Very unhygienic, cheap cleaning products in the facility. Bedding did not seem 100%clean and didn't smell fresh. This is my hometown and this is not what our town should represent, I'm disgusted. This is for a single person or couple just moving through town and just needing a bed. No kettle, no fridge, just beds and cupboards. Sharing a bathroom/toilet with strangers and you need to wait to use the toilet for basic needs. No one took us around the property to show us around. This is not child friendly and the surrounding is very loud with a tennis court and people in the hallway, so no sleeping in at all. You able to hear when people are utilizing the toilet. This is not my idea of fun at all.

Onsmaaklik.

Sal nie sommer Park House Lodge aanbeveel nie. Ons kamer was só vuil, orals was spinnerakke en blare, die beddegoed was nóg vuiler, ons het so gegril om op dit te slaap, gelukkig het ons ekstra komberse gehad wat ons oor die bed kon gooi en onder slaap. Nie eens om te noem dat ons bed gebreek was nie. Die badkamer wat gedeel word tussen 4 kamers was so vol muskiete jy moet Tabard spuit nog voor jy uit die stort uit geklim het om te verhoed dat jy nie deur die muskiete gevreet word nie. Alhoewel die plek 'n streng beleid het teen ontwrigtende gedrag, het dit elke aand so geraas dat dit moeilik was om te slaap. Hierdie was maklikste die mees onplesierigste plek waar ons al oornag het.

Distasteful.

Would not recommend Park House Lodge. Our room was so dirty, there were cobwebs and leaves everywhere, the bedding was even dirtier, we were so scared to sleep on it, luckily we had extra blankets that we could throw over the bed and sleep under. Not even to mention that our bed was broken. The bathroom which is shared between 4 rooms was so full of mosquitoes you had to spray Tabard even before you got out of the shower to avoid being bitten by the mosquitoes. Although the place has a strict policy against disruptive behavior, it was so noisy every night that it was difficult to sleep. This was easily the most unpleasant place we have ever stayed.

Disappointing will not recommend to anyone.

Family Room with shared bathroom, suggests that the family shares the bathroom, not with backpackers. Unit was only cleaned after several requests. Two bath towels for a family of 4. Upon request I was informed that they did not have enough. Place was overfull and stacked with tents in the garden. Upon booking a lodge I do not want to stay in a backpackers place. This place must be marketed as such.

Baie teluerstellend gewees.

Baie rumoerige plek gewees met net een badkamer en toilet op die vloer wat gedeel word en 7 uit 10 keer beset was. Letterlik net 'n kamer met beddens. Nie aan ons gewone vereiste voldoen nie. Jammer.
