Great value for money.

The Orion is so well kept and beautiful. The splash pool really made a difference for the little person. It was easy to get to and such a peaceful space. Everyone was so friendly and helpful.

Sonder krag vir 2 dae.

Eenheid se stoof was foutief en het veroorsaak dat ons vir 2 dae nie kos kon voorberei, of hare droog blaas nie, want ons het nie krag gehad nie. Die stoof en kombuisware was vuil. Daar was ook nie eens 'n braaier vir die selfsorg eenheid nie. Sal glad nie hulle aanbeveel nie, ook nie seker hoe hulle 4 ster gegradeer is nie. In Al ons jare van reis was hierdie beslis die swakste verblyf ooit.

Without power for 2 days.

Unit's stove was faulty and caused us to not be able to prepare food or blow dry hair for 2 days because we had no power. The stove and kitchenware were dirty. There wasn't even a braai for the self-catering unit. Would not recommend them at all, not sure how they are rated 4 star. In all our years of travel this was definitely the worst stay ever.

The Orion Guesthouse 's response

Graag sal ek n paar feite wil uitwys. Eerstens is ek bae gesteld op higiëne en netheid. Die stoof was wel vuil aan die binnekant. Dit was uitgewys aan my deur die gas en ek het dit onmiddellik laat skoonmaak.
Die Mikrogolf en een pan wat wel fotos geneem van was, is nooit vir my genoem nie en ek sou versekerlik dit laat skoonmaak het. Ek wil dus net noem dat daar wel van my personeel nalatig was en hulle was onmiddellik aangespreek. Ek stem dit is onaanvaarbaar maar foute kan wel gebeur met tye.

Die kwessie van die stoof wat buite werking was is nie heeltemal korrek nie. Ons het onlangs Solar batterye laat installeer sodat ons gaste tydens krag onderbrekings wel krag het. Die installeerder het ongelukkig n aard probleem gehad na die stoof wat veroorsaak het dat die reisskakelaar geval het en veroorsaak het dat die muurproppe nie gewerk het nie. Aanvanklik het ons gedink die stoof is foutief en het dieselfde dag n stoof tegnikus laat uitkom. Hulle kon nie fout vind nie en het sover gegaan om n ander stoof te bring. Ons het toe besef dat die probleem by die verspreidings boks is.
Die gaste was slegs vir die eerste dag sonder muurprop krag. Ons het die volgende oggend die reisskakelaar aangesit en hulle het toe vir die res van die naweek wel krag gehad. Ek het n gasstoof vir hulle ook op die tweede dag gegee en aangebied om hulle etes te maak, en vir hulle selfs gratis ontbyte aangebied.

Daar is vir die gaste komplimentêre wyn gegee en onverskoning gevra vir die ongerief wat ongelukkig buite my beheer was op die stadium. Aangaande braai geriewe, is daar wel n braai area vir alle gaste se gebruik. Indien hulle die bestuurderres aan diens vra of die inligtings blad lees wat in alle kamers lê sou die braai area tot hulle beskikking wees.

Ek wil nie foute wegpraat nie, maar soms is kommunikasie baie belangrik.

Ons het uit ons pad gegaan om alle probleme op te los en die gaste gelukkig te hou.

Ek wil dit net graag weereens beklemtoon dat ons kamers daagliks gediens en skoon gemaak word en dit The Orion Gastehuis se voorneme om net die beste vir ons gaste te gee.

Ons was regtig aangenaam verras! Dit is pragtig, en die aandag aan detail is regtig besonders. Ons het lekker gerus en heerlik gekuier. Die kamer was baie mooi en ontbyt was heerlik. Die personeel was regtig baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal enige tyd weer daar gaan bly.

Dit was aangenaam.

Daar was ongelukkig 'n deurmekaarspul, want die gastehuis het ons al die 23ste verwag en die bespreking was van vanaf die 24ste. Ons wou graag ontbyt ook gehad het en daar was nie vir ontbyt bespreek nie. Die ontvangs was hartlik en vriendelik en alles was egter gou reggestel. Baie dankie, dit was aangenaam.

Unfortunately, there was a mix-up, because we were expecting the guest house on the 23rd and the reservation was from the 24th. We would have liked to have breakfast as well and there was no reservation for breakfast. The reception was warm and friendly and everything was soon rectified. Thank you very much, it was pleasant.

Nie 4-ster gehalte nie, maar tog netjies en skoon.

Verblyf vir kinders bo teen die dak was baie warm; ons het vir hulle op die grond 'n bed gemaak. Die ligging, netheid en diens is nie 'n probleem nie. Die parkering is min.

Absoluut fantastiese oornag verblyf oppad na die laeveld!

Vanaf ons bespreking, was die diens uitmuntend en het die Orion Guest house ons op die hande gedra. Die Honeymoon Suite waarin ons gebly het was vreeslik romanties en presies wat ons in gedagte gehad het vir die begin van ons verlowings naweek.
