It's quite clean and provides coffee and tea. We did arrive there late just before loadshedding and the hostess also provided us with lights. Parking not very nice, but not unsafe either.

Mediocre.
Very clean and tidy, but not modern. Was not safe parking for our vehicle. Meals also not available as on website. If they buy for you, it is inhumanly expensive. Still, it's still a nice place for a quick stopover.

Very nice, thank you.
We had a really nice stay, and the workers are incredibly friendly and helpful. The only negative thing I can mention is, when there is loadshedding, there is no lighting where one parks the cars in the garage, my wife felt very unsafe when she should have gone to store the car and walked back to the room . Unfortunately I couldn't, I was on crutches. But overall it's a very neat place, with very friendly workers. Thank you.

Stormy.
The beds creak when you lie on them, it feels like it's going to give way at any moment. There is no Wi-Fi, the rooms are cramped and then guests arrive at 3 o'clock in the morning and knock you awake for accommodation.

Convenient.
The place is very neat and clean. The hostess is very friendly and helpful. Please have a look at the loose tiles around the pool, because my son stepped on a loose tile and landed in the pool. The pool is very close to the rooms and I shudder to think if a small child should fall. Also, the pub next to the guest house, especially on a weekend is quite a problem, as it is a noise until morning. We didn't get much sleep over it.

Not worth it.
We feel it is not worth the money: 1. The room we were supposed to get smelled so much of cigarette smoke that we could not accept it. 2. The other room has only one TV station. The other is just snow. 3. The toilet's water ran all night without stopping even though we tried to stop it ourselves. 4. When we woke up in the night the room was full of cockroaches and the carpets smelled dirty. 5. The garage door is in poor working order and almost came down on the roof of my car. 6. There is a bar right next to the place where the people made a lot of noise until late. 7. Our vehicle had to be parked outside with no fence or provision of security.

Place was clean.
The bathroom was not "user friendly", not for older persons. 1) No shower. 2) Tub without plug. 3) The layout of bathroom not for old people. Toilet, sink and bath on platform/stair type building? Makes no sense and is dangerous. Was hot and fan didn't work, they had to go through the room to find one that worked.

Goeie dag,
Daar is altyd proppe in die kamers en ons as kantoor dames gaan elke aand die kamers deur om te kyk dat alles daar is en reg is. Ons is baie jammer oor bad kamer uitleg die gastehuis is so gebou en oorgevat van vorige eienaars. Die waaier het gewerk toe ek die eerste keer daar in was ek kan onthou dat hy gewaai het, ek het ook nie deur die kamers gegaan om 'n waaier te kry nie ek het n waaier gaan haal by kamer 18 en geweet hy werk.
Baie dankie
