The Woodsman B&B 's response

Good day, Mr. Meyer. I am actually not too sure what the problem may have been. Oscar welcomed your wife as he normally does when he handed the keys. We gladly moved you to another unit as we had done maintenance (plastering) in the room you were in. We never realized that the plastering was still smelling. Juane told me that she was very happy. I also communicated with her about arranging utensils for your braai, and that was done.
I do apologize for your unhappiness. We were on the property all the time and there was no mention of a problem.
Warm Regards,
Jolene

Disappointed.

Parkering onder in basement was 'n probleem. Geen mini fridge in kamers net om ten minste water koud te hou. Personeel by restaurant in aand nie gretig om te help. Ons het liewers by 'n ander plek gaan eet. Kamerdiens was goed maar die deur word oopgelos. Tydens load shedding geen water. Geen water bottels aangebied.

The Woodsman B&B 's response

Good day, the gentleman made the reservation and we are very clear as to what amenities are in the rooms. You could have chosen the rooms with the fridges, but did not. I can however only apologize for your unhappiness at our restaurant, my staff is usually very attentive, so I can not understand what the problem was here. The gate gets locked when the restaurant closes, by 21h30-22h00 every night. I was on the property all this time and had no problems mentioned to me or my husband. We have notes in all our rooms, for your convenience, stating as to when there is load shedding, Sabie has no water giving you time to have showers. Warm Regards, Jolene.

Nie baie stil in die nag nie - is op 'n raserige hoek in die dorp.

As mens 'n rustige nag wil deurbring, is dit nie die plek nie, maar andersins is dit baie goeie waarde vir geld.

Lekker gebly, stilte was welkom.

Ontbyt was 'n kwessie - ons is geskuif na selfsorg weens COVID-maatreëls en moes self kos maak (die rou bestanddele is verskaf). Die stortkoppe kort aandag.

Was vreeslik lekker om daar te kon slaap.

Die verblyf was vreeslik netjies en baie veilig. Sal net graag wil hê dat die skoonmaak met 'n fyner oog gedoen word. Die ketels mooi skoon maak saam met die koppies. Verder was dit vreeslik lekker.

Swak geleë en swak diens.

The Woodsman is in die hoofstraat geleë bo 'n gewilde restaurant/bar wat beteken dat daar baie lawaai is laat in die aande en ook vroeg oggend. Verder het ons gesukkel om die bestuurder in die hande te kry om ons te help. Die wat wel daar was kon nie veel doen nie en wou nie juis help om die verantwoordelike persoon in die hande te kry nie.

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

Poor location and poor service.

The Woodsman is located on the main street above a popular restaurant/bar which means that there is a lot of noise late in the evenings and also early in the morning. Furthermore, we had difficulty getting hold of the manager to help us. Those who were there couldn't do much and didn't really want to help to get hold of the person responsible.
