'n Reisigers-oase.

Die 3de keer wat ek hierdie jaar by Reis n Rus oorgeslaap het, en ek het weer heerlik gebly. Die eienaar laat mens altyd baie welkom voel en die gastehuis het alles wat ek nodig gehad het. Dankie weereens oom Johan!

'n Oase tussen Gauteng en Natal.

Het een nag oorgeslaap by Reis n Rus, oppad van Gauteng na Natalse kus. Ek is baie welkom laat voel deur die eienaar en het heerlik gebly, dit was my 2de besoek hierdie jaar by Reis n Rus, en ek kan dit definitief aanbeveel. Die uitsig oor die berg is besonders. Dankie oom Johan!

An oasis between Gauteng and Natal.

Stayed one night at Reis n Rus, on the way from Gauteng to the Natal coast. I was made to feel very welcome by the owner and had a wonderful stay, it was my 2nd visit this year at Reis n Rus, and I can definitely recommend it. The view over the mountain is exceptional. Thank you Uncle Johan!

Baie mooi gastehuis en aangename gasheer.

Heerlik gebly by Reis n Rus. Ek het een nag oorgeslaap op pad na Pietermaritzburg om aan die Midmar Myl deel te neem, en Harrismith was ideaal geleë tussen Vanderbijlpark en Midmar. As enkelreisiger het Reis n Rus heeltemal aan my vereistes voldoen. Die woning is goed omhein en die waghonde op hulle pos. Kan regtig hierdie gastehuis aanbeveel. Dankie oom Johan.

Had a wonderful stay at Reis n Rus. I stayed one night on my way to Pietermaritzburg to take part in the Midmar Mile, and Harrismith was ideally located between Vanderbijlpark and Midmar. As a solo traveler Reis n Rus completely met my requirements. The house is well fenced and the guard dogs on their post. Can really recommend this guest house. Thank you Uncle Johan.

Waarde vir geld, goeie gasvryheid, en die eienaar het gesorg vir water en krag ten spyte van water tekorte en beurtkrag.

Beslis waarde vir geld, kamer goed toegerus. Die eienaar was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig en gaan uit sy pad om jou tuis te laat voel.

Absoluut puik.

Hulle het uit hul pad gegaan vandat ons daar aangekom het tot ons vertrek. Spesiaal vir ons 'n braaier met vuurmaakhout en tafel kom opsit reg voor ons kamer. Was vroegtydig laat weet oor load shedding en sou generator start as ons dit wou gehad het. Kamer was spotless skoon en dit was baie netjies. Baie dankie Mel.

They went out of their way from the time we got there until we left. Especially for us, a braai with firewood and table is set up right in front of our room.

Wow!

Manlief het daar oorgeslaap op pad terug Kleinmond toe. Hy het in "loadshedding" daar aangekom. Hy is met liefde en gasvryheid ontvang, Mel het vir hom warm water gereël, koffie en koekies en toe boonop vir hom 'n ligte aandete gemaak (in haar woorde "ons doen dit vir die liefde"!) Sy het selfs vir hom padkos ingesit. Mel, baie dankie vir jou omgee en jou vriendelikheid, dankie klink min maar ons waardeer dit.

One night only on the way to the Drakensberg. Six people in the party in 3 rooms.

Mel was extremely hospitable from the moment we arrived until the minute we left. She set out a dinner table, and made a fire and made sure we had enough parking for all the vehicles and caravans etc. A really good stay.

Kan nie vir beter eienaars vra nie.

Ek was in 'n lelike ongeluk betrokke op pad na Reis n Rus toe. Jan en Alta het uit hulle pad gegaan om seker te maak dat ek niks kort gekom het nie. Het dikwels ingeloer om te kyk of ek iets nodig gehad het. Ek het versorging gekry wat ek nie in 'n hospitaal kon kry nie. Ek sal hulle te alle tye aanbeveel. Dit is skoon en netjies. Dankie weereens Jan en Alta vir alles wat julle vir my gedoen het.

Wonderful place to sleep over.

Our stay was wonderful and comfortable. I would definitely stay there again. The rooms were well-kept and clean, and the beds were comfortable. The house is located a bit away from the N3 so there wasn't much noise to be heard, and the place was safe to stay in and even had place for us to safely stop our vehicle. The owners were very kind and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We had some issues with the shower in one of the rooms, which used a gas geyser, where the water would get way too hot and then suddenly become ice cold, but perhaps we just did not get the trick to balancing the warmth of the water. Perhaps a normal geyser would be a better idea if possible.

Wonderlike plek om oor te slaap.

Ons verblyf was wonderlik en gemaklik. Ek sal beslis weer daar oornag. Die kamers was goed versorg en skoon, en die beddens was gemaklik. Die huis is 'n entjie van die N3 af geleë, so daar was nie veel geraas om te hoor nie, en die plek was veilig om in te bly en het selfs plek gehad om ons voertuig veilig te parkeer. Die eienaars was baie vriendelik en het gesorg dat ons alles het wat ons benodig. Ons het probleme gehad met die stort in een van die kamers, wat gebruik maak van 'n gasgeiser, waar die water te warm word en dan skielik yskoud word, maar miskien het ons net nie die trick uitgevind om die warmte van die water te balanseer nie . Miskien is 'n normale geiser 'n beter idee indien moontlik.
