Fantasties.

Baie lekker. Alhoewel die boonste gedeelte nie water gehad het nie, het hulle plan gemaak dat ons in die hotel kon gaan stort.

Fantastic.

Very nice. Although the upper part had no water, they arranged for us to shower in the hotel.

Ek het dit baie geniet, dit was rustig en ontspannend.

Ja, ek het. Die beddens was gemaklik, die badkamer en kamer was netjies en skoon.

Eenheid is skoon. Lekker gebly. Eenheid is presies soos op foto.

Relaxing.

Stay was great, new mattresses are however needed and new shower heads. Other than that, no issues.

For the purpose it was intended for it was great.

Stay was good, was a little disappointed that there was no electric blanket as advertised but the additional blankets made up for it. Two towels would also be a bonus instead of just one.

Net 'n vinnige oornagkuier.

Alles was netjies en skoon, maar daar was geen warm water en niemand om te vra nie.

Just a quick overnight visit.

Everything was neat and clean, but there was no hot water and no one to ask.

The addition of a swimming pool at the facility would make a big difference.

Suitable for overnight travellers.

The one staff member, Present, was very friendly. However, we had trouble coming in and out of the property as the place does not provide the guests with a remote for the gate. Coming in and out means waiting up to 15 minutes for the staff member to arrive with the remote.

Onrustigheid van kliente en getoetery om hek oop te maak met baie geraas enige tyd van die nag.

Ontbyt laat te wense oor; die kos was koud en eiers was oorkook, verder was die beddegoed nie geruil nie of net plain oud en het gate van sigaretbrandmerke. Loadshedding het darem 'n lig gekry en daar is geen afdak vir die kar nie. Die toilet lek en die toiletpapier is minder as enkellaags, en daar is geen afstandsbeheer vir die TV nie.

Translate to English.

Restlessness from clients and honking to open the gate with a lot of noise at any time of the night.

Breakfast leaves much to be desired; the food was cold and eggs were overcooked, furthermore the bedding was not changed or just plain old and had holes from cigarette marks. At least loadshedding got a light and there is no roof for the car. The toilet leaks and the toilet paper is less than single ply, and there is no remote control for the TV.

Netjiese verblyf.

Gemaklike verblyf en skoon chalet. Parkeerplek langs die chalet is moeilik met die graswalle.

Baie vriendelike personeel, goeie ligging en maklik bereikbaar.

Heerlike bed, stoep en werklik baie rustig. Mens kom skaars agter dat daar nog besoekers is. 'n Bekostigbare en oulike oornagplek, daar kan egter aandag gegee word aan klein goedjies. Die yskas was nie aangeskakel nie, daar is wel koffiegeriewe, maar die breekware was nie baie skoon nie.

Very friendly staff, good location and easy to reach.

Lovely bed, porch and really very peaceful. One hardly notices that there are still visitors. An affordable and cute place to stay, however, attention could be paid to small things. The fridge was not switched on, there are coffee facilities, but the crockery was not very clean.

A comfortable unit in pleasant surroundings but shoddy customer service.

They knew 2 people had booked for self-catering, but they had not equipped the unit with the basics: Only one drinking glass, no forks, no chopping board or bread knife and we ran out of toilet paper! There was no apology from the woman at reception when we complained. The cleaner sorted us out.

Pateties.

Wat op adverteer word en wat ek daar gevind het is om die minste te sê, vals advertensie. Die Cottage wat 7 kan slaap met en suite-badkamer en queen-size dubbelbed bestaan nie. Die deur is toegebou en jy kry 5 enkelbeddens. 2 ongewaste borde, 2 glase en yskas wat nie werk nie het ons begroet. Geen seep, shampoo, koffie, ens was in die kamer nie. Dit nadat ek gebel het die Dinsdag en hulle bevestig het dis ingesluit. Handdoeke lyk soos iets waarmee ek my kar sal was. Veiligheidshek het geen slot in nie, ek moes dit met cable ties probeer vasmaak.

Pathetic.

What is advertised on and what I found there is, to say the least, false advertising. The Cottage which sleeps 7 with en-suite bathroom and queen-size double bed does not exist. The door is closed and you get 5 single beds. 2 unwashed plates, 2 glasses and a non-working fridge greeted us. No soap, shampoo, coffee, etc. in the room. This after I called the Tuesday and they confirmed it was included. Towels look like something I would wash my car with. Security gate has no lock in it, I had to try to secure it with cable ties.

Aangenaam verras deur gasvryheid en rustige atmosfeer. Sal weer by Old Mill Hotel bly op pad na Kruger en Sabie.

Gerieflike, ruim slaapkamers met rustige plattelandse atmosfeer.

The hotel standard is good but the customer care is zero.

I was never told that the geyser was switched off. No one took me to the cottage to show me how things worked, as a result I had to bath in cold water in a very cold Machadodorp. I was very upset. I arrived at around 9 pm. The gentleman I met just checked me in and gave me the key to the cottage. He never took me there as it is custom in the hospitality industry. As a result I had to figure out a lot of things by trial an error. Like, it is cold, there is no visible heater or kaggel in the room, then I later figured out there are electric blankets. I never knew the geyser is switched off and had to bath in cold water the next morning. It was a horrible experience for me. My recommendation is to train your staff on hospitality, and have a security (gate man) to open rather than stopping at the gate and phone the manager to come and open. It exposes your customer to dangers of being hijacked right in front of your establishment.

Baie laat gearriveer, aangewys na chalet wat netjies en skoon was met ekstra elektriese komberse. Puik.

Het net basies oornag en met laat aankom nie veel van die hotel gesien nie. Het 'n lekker ontbyt geëet alhoewel die diens beter kon gewees het. Baie vriendelike eienaar.

Arrived very late, showed to chalet which was neat and clean with extra electric blankets - great.

Only stayed overnight and arrived late, so did not see a lot of the hotel. Had a delicious breakfast, even though the service could've been better. Very friendly owner.
