Alles baie skoon en netjies.

Al klagte wat ek het, dis nie baie privaat met deur na huis. Hoor huismense se doen en late. En dan verwag ek dat toiletsproei darem gegee word, maar toe nie! Dankie vir bo-laken!

Lovely overnight.

The Kemps are really organised and I really appreciate the way they treated myself and my kids. We felt comfortable and at home. The apartment is spacious and modern. The single bed needs a new mattress as its really hard. There was coffee, tea etc. Which I didn't expect even soap in the bathroom. A big thanks.

Hi, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. We will supply a mattress for the sleeper coach.

Beslis nie stil en rustig nie, raserige omgewing.

Woonstel baie skoon en netjies. Vertrek is egter uitgelewer aan middagson en bak vuurwarm. 'n Waaier sal baie handig te pas kom. Verkeer pla baie as 'n mens dit nie gewoond is nie en raserige bure het tot 2 uur gekuier wat my nagrus versteur het, maar dis 'n studentedorp so dis een van daardie dinge! Die plekkie is egter beslis nie vir "plasies" soos ek nie! Die relax was my nie beskore.

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

Definitely not quiet and peaceful, noisy environment.

Apartment very clean and tidy. Departure, however, was at the mercy of the midday sun and baking fire. A fan will come in very handy. Traffic bothers a lot if you're not used to it and noisy neighbors visited until 2am which disturbed my night's sleep, but it's a student town so that's one of those things! However, the place is definitely not for "villains" like me! I was not destined to relax.

Middag,

Daar is 'n waaier in die woonstel. ons het heelwat waaiers so vra gerus volgende keer. Jammer dis maar 'n besige omgewing, om te rus is dit beter om te kom as studente op vakansie is.

Stellenbosch is baie warm en ek het 'n sambreel buite op die stoep om te keer vir die warm son, weet nie of dit jou besoek al daar was nie.

Sal egter defnitief kyk om later 'n aircon in te sit.
Dankie vir terugvoer.

Goeie middag,

Die parkeer area aan linkerkant is geallokeer vir woonstelgaste. Ek is jammer ons was nie bewus dat die ander gaste in jou parkeerplek gestaan het, ons sou hul gevra om te skuif. Jammer vir die ongerief.

Groete,

Privacy a problem bedding & towels not clean fresh.

Won't recommend the flat, you can hear the owners family's private conversation through a middle door & visa versa, no aircon, owners did renovations on wooden deck during our stay. Not suitable for hiring out.

Relax in Stellenbosch 's response

Sorry about the renovations on the deck. We have to keep our property maintained. We improved the privacy and installed a patio divider.

The renovations do not interfere with using the swimming pool and the deck is on the main house side.

Sorry for inconvenience

Mostly acceptable

Safe parking can be a problem as there is not enough space. Front garden partially covered with sports carpet rolled up to one side. Have to climb over it. Dirty dishes on a chair in front of the door on the porch of the apartment. Tea/coffee not professionally presented with indication of what kind of tea as there were several different bags.

I felt bad with the service we received. It wasn’t worth the money we paid.

The place was not clean upon arrival. We were given dirty linen used by previous guests. Sheets were not changed for the entire three weeks. We had to request toilet paper, coffee, sugar and towels every time. The room still wasn’t cleaned for the entire 2 weeks. No heater was provided and there is no Wi-Fi as indicated before booking. I am never going back nor recommend anybody to go there.

Relax in Stellenbosch 's response

The white linen gets changed before each new customer. We added the extra blankets to the washing list to make sure it doesn't get looked over. For the price per night for the 3 people you were, it doesn't include cleaning daily. As I told you, you have to pay extra if I have to get a cleaner every day. I will make sure that new customers understand that daily cleaning will be on request at extra cost.
Kind regards

Dog went for 1 year old.

Aggressive dog on property.

Relax in Stellenbosch 's response

Dear Jacolene,

The location is correctly located on the listing, sorry that you were unhappy about that. We are within walking distance from the schools and 2 minutes from town in a great neighborhood Dalsig.
The parking is secure behind gates and you had keys to lock your door and a remote to open and close the gate. Its unfortunate that you felt there should have been more secure.
So sorry about the dog, he is always kind and loving to our guests.
We always get cleaning services in and are sorry that you felt it wasn't clean enough and I will double check it next time.
I think part of your discomfort was that you had more adults than what you booked for, we tried to help by supplying you with an extra mattress and bedding, but the flat is only sufficient for 2 adults and a sleeper couch for a child as we think 3 adults and a child might have made it a bit crowded.

Thanks for your comments. I will keep it in consideration.

Verrassend en aangenaam.

Eenheid is baie netjies en eienaars baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Sou net wou aanbeveel dat daar dalk lugversorging geinstalleer word en dat die deur tussen eenheid en huis meer klankdig gemaak word. Andersins het ek heerlik gebly en sal dit beslis aanbeveel vir enige reisiger na Stellenbosch.

Unit is very neat and owners very friendly and helpful. Would just like to recommend that maybe air conditioning be installed and that the door between unit and house be made more soundproof. Otherwise I had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend it to any traveler to Stellenbosch.

Ons het ons tydjie by Relax in Stellenbosch vreeslik geniet. Plekkie is baie skoon en netjies. Daar is alles wat jy nodig het en die ligging is perfek. Boonop was ons baie vriendelik ontvang en daar was voorsiening gemaak vir ons wat eers middernag daar kon aankom. Ons was baie beïndruk. Akkommodasie word sterk aanbeveel!

Geniet, maar benodig aanpassings.

Behalwe vir ontvangs was eienaars omtrent heeltemal afwesig. TV is gekoppel aan huis en was meestal op kinderkanale en Bollywood. Sou ek nie Woordfees bygewoon het nie sou dit baie frustrerend gewees het. Daar was geen hangers in die kas, enige vorm van 'n waaier of tee soos vir my wat glad nie koffie drink nie. Ook geen melk vir ten minste eerste koppie drinkgoed nie. Die gesin se funksionering (kan meeste gesprekke en geluide hoor) sou baie frustrerend gewees het as jy nie 'n program het om te volg nie.

Enjoyed it, but needs improvement.

Except for at reception, the owners were almost completely absent. TV is connected to the house and was mostly on children's channels and Bollywood. If I hadn't been attending the Woordfees this would have been very frustrating. There were no hangers in the closet, no form of fan or tea for people like me who don't drink coffee at all. Also no milk for at least the first beverage. The family's functioning (could mostly hear their conversations and noises) would have been frustrating had I not had a program to stick to.

Ek's so jammer. Die DStv gaan apart gekonnekteer word die week nog.
Ongelukkig is woonstel vas aan huis. So as kinders aan die kant van die woonstel beweeg is hul hoorbaar. Ek sal dit so aanbring op die webblad.
Ek verstaan nie afwesig gedeelte nie. Ons het maar ons eie lewens wat aangaan.
Ons verhuur slegs die woonstel uit.
Ek sal melk en tee ook voortaan voorsien.
Dankie vir terugvoer. Ek hoop die woordfees was lekker.
