Baie gerieflik en vriendelike diens. Eienaars behulpsaam.

Die eienaars van die plek het ons baie goed verwelkom. Ons sal enige tyd weer daar book. Sal gaste verwys. Dankie vir 'n heerlike bly.

The place was perfect. But would have been perfect without dogs.

We enjoyed the place, it was perfect. We enjoyed it, its also safe and beautiful.

Amazing

I was surprised at how it was.. Parking was tight, old fashioned place. Without dstv (as description says) Guess it just wasn't what I expected..

Teleurstellend.

Die verblyf was nie op standaard nie. Die foto's en die website is baie misleidend. Dis nie 'n gemaklike, netjiese blyplek nie.

Disappointing.

The accommodation wasn't up to standard. The photos on the website are very misleading. It isn't a comfortable, neat place to stay.

Hi Charles, we are indeed sorry that you did not have a good experience with us. As you know there were things that were out of our control and because of this we did offer you, in the beginning, a full refund so that you could find something else. However you declined our offer and decided to take the room as it was. Needless to say, we certainly would have liked the outcome to be a better one but circumstances did not permit it.

We didn't even see a chance to stay there.

Definitely the worst experience ever. Not at all like in the picture. I booked a room with 2 single or three-quarter beds and when we got there we were taken into the Honey Sucker room with a double bed. Unfortunately, my colleague and I could not sleep on the same bed and the smell was unbearable. Not at all neat as in the photos. I was terribly disappointed.

Service was Excellent!

From arrival until departure, everything was on point. Place was clean and the garden was beautiful. Any time I'm in East London, Portside Inn is where you will find me.

Naby alles wat dit maklik maak om gou oral uit te kom.

Die hekke met die slotte maak dit baie veiliger, maar die hekke met die slotte raas net baie.

Close to everything that makes it easy to get everywhere quickly.

The gates with the locks make it much safer, but the gates with the locks just make a lot of noise.

Thank you for your review.
We are sorry about the noisy gates, we will have to find some way of making them quieter.
