Aangenaam verras deur Pofadder Inn, die kamer voel luuks.

Die kamers het my verras, nogal luuks vir so 'n afgeleë dorpie. Die ontvangs was vinnig en vriendelik. Die kos was bietjie duur volgens my, en die gehalte kan verbeter. Sal weer daar bly as ek die keuse het.

Oasis in die Noord-Kaap.

Baie oulike plekkie wat goed ingerig is. Die staf is vriendelik en die area stil en rustig. So bietjie te duur vir wat jy kry en waar dit geleë is, maar ek sal weer daar bly as ek Pofadder deurry. Dis goeie verblyf in die area en mens verwag nie so 'n mooi plek in die middel van nêrens nie.

Oasis in the Northern Cape.

Very cute little place that is well furnished. The staff are friendly and the area quiet and peaceful. A bit overpriced for what you get and where it is located, but I will stay there again if I pass through Pofadder. It's good accommodation in the area and you don't expect such a nice place in the middle of nowhere.

Ten volle aan te beveel vir oornag pit-stop wanneer jy deur die Noord-Kaap toer. Vriendelike diens. Baie netjies en skoon. Kamers ruim met 'n kombuisie om ietsie self te kan maak om te eet, maar die restaurant se kos is baie lekker!

Skoon en netjies.

Die kamers is netjies en skoon en ons eenheid was toegerus vir selfsorg. Ons het net `n bloutjie geloop met ontbyt die oggend. Ons was nie ingelig dat ontbyt net tot 09:00 bedien word nie en toe ons 09:10 daar instap word ons ingelig dat ons laat is en ontbyt verby is. Daar is egter nêrens `n aanduiding van ontbyttye nie, nie op `n deur, venster of in die kamer nie. Die skoonmaker het aangebied om die kok te gaan soek en die het toe daar aangekom en met `n houding gesê dat sy ons sal help. Ek het toe onder haar aandag gebring dat ek nie die kos sal eet wat sy met so houding vir ons wil maak nie! Ek het gevra om die bestuurder te sien vir terugbetaling van die ontbyt, maar hy het geweier om terug te betaal. Hy het egter aangebied dat hul kospakkies kan maak, maar ek het geweier om dit te aanvaar met die kok se houding. Ons het toe ontbyt elders in die dorp gaan eet.

Clean and tidy.

The rooms are neat and clean and our unit was equipped for self-catering. We just walked a little blue with breakfast in the morning. We were not informed that breakfast is only served until 09:00 and when we walked in at 09:10 we were informed that we were late and breakfast was over. However, there is no indication of breakfast times anywhere, not on a door, window or in the room. The cleaner offered to go find the cook and he then arrived there and said with an attitude that she would help us. I then brought to her attention that I will not eat the food that she wants to make for us with such an attitude! I asked to see the manager for a refund of the breakfast but he refused to refund. However, he offered that they can make food packets, but I refused to accept it with the cook's attitude. We then went to eat breakfast elsewhere in town.

'n Goeie oorslaapbestemming, skoon, netjies. Vals noot: die hamburgers.

As mens op reis is en jy soek 'n plek om oor te slaap, het jy sekerlik niks meer as die Pofadder Inn nodig nie. Die kamers is skoon, die stort is warm (daar was geen waarskuwings oor watertekorte nie, so ek het maar lekker lank gestort), die matras is gemaklik en daar is die aangename verrassing van 'n klein kombuisie met yskas en stoof en alles! Mens sou nie jou tien naaste vriende daaruit kon onthaal nie, maar dis goed vir pasta maak of so iets. Die prys was vir my aan die hoë kant, maar daar is nie iets anders in die dorp om mee te vergelyk nie, so ek moet seker nie kla nie. Die aandete was bietjie van 'n vals noot. Ons het vroeër die dag van die pad af gebel en aandete bestel. Teen ons aankoms die aand 7:30 was die restaurant al toe en dit blyk toe dat die bestuur intussen besluit het om ons hamburger bestelling na 'n wegneemete te verander, maar dis aangebied teen dieselfde prys as die aansitopsie. Stywe pattie op 'n nat broodjie wat al 'n rukkie vir ons gewag het. En die chips het uit 'n vrieskas gekom. Seker maar McCain. Die ontbyt was egter lekker en die eetsaal is aangenaam. Sou net graag regte espresso-masjien koffie wou gehad het. Die standaard catering-styl perkoleerders met sy twee potte dun koffie is eintlik net goed om die koffie stadig te laat staan en bitter word. Maar ek het vergeet om te vra of hulle 'n properse Americano kan maak, en het toe onnadenkend van die filterkoffie gedrink. Dit was bitterig. Koffie is baie belangrik. Bied vir mens by ontbyt 'n goeie koppie koffie aan en hy vergewe jou allerhande ander geite. My laaste temerigheid: Mense, julle moet julle trots op julle dorp en streek wys deur ‘n inheemse tuin te bou! Kannas en palmpies en ivy hoort in Pretoria-tuine. Die Noord-Kaap het so ‘n wonderlike en unieke diversiteit van plantlewe, en dis so mooi plek. Wys ons iets daarvan en gooi die ou kannas en ander verbeeldinglose kwekery opsies uit.

A good overnight destination, clean, tidy. False note: the hamburgers.

If you are traveling and you are looking for a place to sleep, you certainly need nothing more than the Pofadder Inn. The rooms are clean, the shower is hot (there were no warnings about water shortages so I just took a nice long shower), the mattress is comfortable and there is the pleasant surprise of a small kitchen with fridge and stove and everything! You wouldn't be able to entertain your ten closest friends with it, but it's good for making pasta or something like that. The price was on the high side for me, but there isn't anything else in town to compare to, so I guess I shouldn't complain. The dinner was a bit of a false note. We called earlier in the day from the road and ordered dinner. By our arrival at 7:30 in the evening, the restaurant was already closed and it appeared that the management had decided to change our hamburger order to a takeaway, but it was offered at the same price as the sit-down option. Tight patty on a wet bun that has been waiting for us for a while. And the chips came from a freezer. Probably McCain. However, the breakfast was nice and the dining room is pleasant. Just would have liked real espresso machine coffee. The standard catering-style percolators with its two pots of thin coffee are really only good for letting the coffee sit slowly and become bitter. But I forgot to ask if they could make a proper Americano, and then thoughtlessly drank some of the filter coffee. It was bitter. Coffee is very important. Offer a person a good cup of coffee at breakfast and he will forgive you all kinds of other goats. My last temerity: People, you must show your pride in your town and region by building a native garden! Cannas and palms and ivy belong in Pretoria gardens. The Northern Cape has such a wonderful and unique diversity of plant life, and it's such a beautiful place. Show us some of that and throw out the old cannas and other unimaginative nursery options.

Die kamers was skoon en netjies.

Die personeel was vriendelik en behulpsaam. My voorstel sal wees om die braaivleis opsie te neem vir aandete aangesien die opsies vir aandete beperk was. Ons kos was koud, maar hulle het ons te gemoed gekom deur vir my bejaarde pa ontbytkos vir aandete voor te berei.
