Het dit geniet.

Diens wat ek ontvang het was wonderlik. Kommunikasie moet bietjie verbeter. Met aankoms het hul gevra vir betaling tot ek bewys gewys het wat ek ontvang het.

Enjoyed it.

Service I received was great. Communication needs to improve a bit. Upon arrival they asked for payment until I showed proof of what I received.

More,

Baie dankie vir u positiewe terugvoer, dit motiveer almal om nog beter te doen. Jammer vir die ongerief weens die betaling.

Mooi dag

It was short, but the service and care by the owner is great and friendly.

The room I had was convenient enough for me. The outside seating facility is very convenient for eating and smoking and overall relaxation.

Geen probleme. Mikrogolf sal 'n verbetering wees.

Stort sal beter wees as bad.

No problems. Microwave would be an improvement.

Shower would be better than bath.

Teleurstellend. Teen R700 per nag het ek meer verwag van die fasiliteite wat afgerem was.

Die plek moet meer aandag aan detail gee. Iemand anders se hare op die kussingsloop sowel as spatels (geluk soos bloed) wat nie uitgewas kon word, was op die kussingsloop. Kaste se rakke was gevlek en die pleister kom van die muur af. Ek kon nie my klere uitpak nie. WiFi soul ook verwag word teen die prys. Ek was nie gemaklik met die verblyf nie en het na een aand uitgeboek en gebly in 'n plek wat dieselfde vra per nag vir veel meer.

Translate to English.

Disappointing. At R700 a night, I expected more from the facilities that were slowed down.

The place needs more attention to detail. Someone else's hair on the pillowcase as well as spatulas (happiness like blood) that couldn't be washed out was on the pillowcase. Cabinets shelves were stained and the plaster came off the wall. I couldn't unpack my clothes. WiFi soul is also expected at the price. I was not comfortable with the accommodation and after one night I booked out and stayed in a place that was asking the same night for much more.

Goeiemiddag Mev Joubert,

Baie dankie vir u terugvoer. Soos aan u telefonies verduidelik, is die probleme aangespreek en is u baie welkom om in die toekoms vir een nag gratis van ons geriewe gebruik te maak.
Ons beskik ook wel oor wi-fi, gaste is welkom om die kode by die persoon aan diens te kry.

Groete.

Nie tevrede nie.

Ek het spesifiek vir 'n kamer met 'n bad gevra en toe ek daar kom sê hulle sorry sien nou eers, maar te laat, want die kamer met bad is reeds uitgegee. Dit is vir my onaanvaarbaar dan het my TV ook heeltyd net no signal gewys so kon ook nie TV kyk nie.

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

Not happy.

I specifically asked for a room with a bath and when I got there they were sorry to see now, but too late, because the room with bath was already issued. This is unacceptable to me, and my TV always showed no signal so I couldn't watch TV either.

Uiters swak, hulle sien my nie weer nie!

Ek moes my koffie met my tandeborsel roer, geen teelepels nie. Daar is nie 'n stort in die kamer nie en die bad se warmwaterkraan het nie gewerk nie en moes ek noodgedwonge in 'n ander kamer gaan stort. Die TV het nie gewerk nie. Daar was slegs een klein en een groot handdoek beskikbaar, dit terwyl ons twee persone was, ek en my bejaarde moeder. Die ergste was seker die onprofessionaliteit van die persoon by ontvangs!

Extremely weak, they don't see me again!

I had to stir my coffee with my toothbrush, no teaspoons. There is no shower in the room and the bath's hot water tap did not work and I had to take a shower in another room. The TV didn't work. There was only one small and one large towel available, this while there were two of us, me and my elderly mother. The worst was probably the unprofessionalism of the person at reception!

Totally unsuitable for business travellers. Uncomfortable, cramped and noisy with no lounge area to sit and do any work.

Not suitable for business travellers who have a decent standard of expectation. Too cramped, uncomfortable and dinghy. Noise from the corridors is intrusive. No lounge area to do work. Did not have breakfast because the place looks and feels creepy. Did not even have water to drink. Sorry, but I’d rather sleep in the car! Worst place I’ve ever slept in my entire 30-year career.

Die foto's en resensies op die blad is misleidend.

In vergelyking met soortgelyke gastehuise tov prysklas is Victorian Lodge se aanbieding net te basies. Daar was geen basiese toiletware in die badkamer. Badkamer baie klein, min beweegruimte. Matras op die bed nie meer op standaard. Geen hangers in hangkas beskikbaar. Algemene instandhouding kort aandag (duidelike los vloerlyste). Ontbyt baie basies.

Translate to English.

The photos and reviews on the page are misleading.

Compared to similar guesthouses in terms of price range, Victorian Lodge's offering is just too basic. There were no basic toiletries in the bathroom. Bathroom very small, little room to move. Mattress on the bed no longer on standard. No hangers in hanging closet available. General maintenance needs attention (obviously loose skirting boards). Breakfast very basic.
