Goeie diens.

Die diens was goed, kos en akkommodasie was goed en sal weer van hulle diens gebruikmaak as ek in daai area werk.

Boere plattelandse gasvryheid!

Een van die min plattelandse lodges waar ek met netheid, vriendelikheid en gasvryheid kon oorbly. Ek sal altyd weer daar gaan oorbly en beveel dit hoog aan vir reisigers wat skoon en veilige verblyf benodig. Die suite was ruim en twee persone kan daar soos in hul eie woonstel woon!

Peasant rural hospitality!

One of the few rural lodges where I could stay with cleanliness, friendliness and hospitality. I will always stay there again and highly recommend it to travelers who need clean and safe accommodation. The suite was spacious and two people could live there like in their own apartment!

Below expectations.

My room was very dated and the pictures on the lodge webpage are of the few modern bits of the building. I did a 4-day trip to the North West Free State and stayed in Bothaville, Hoopstad, Wesselsbron and Viljoenskroon. Wesselsbron Lodge was by far the most expensive place to stay and had the worst facilities.

Clean rooms, good food, friendly.

The lodge is a bit outdated but has good beds and is clean. Most of the staff are very friendly. One thing we noticed is that the price of breakfast depends on the person who charges. Okay, it is only 0.50 rand and negligible, but it should be consistent. We didn't say anything because of the small difference. The food is very good, and you can also have drinks in the garden. The WiFi is okay but depends a bit on your location, although that was not a problem. I would definitely stay there again.

Ou plattelandse huislikheid en gasvryheid.

Lekker ou plattelandse lodge. Personeel is baie goed. Beddens is goed. Dele is baie oud, maar dit bied werklik waarde vir geld.

Nice old country lodge. Staff is very good. Beds are good. Parts are very old but it really offers value for money.

Good

It was a good stay but 900 is a lot per night without other facilities like the air conditioner was not working, the heater not working, TV only Mnet and eTV program. In winter I won't recommend someone to visit the place. That room doesn't deserve that money it is spacious and too cold. No plates, cutlery. Only one cup of tea and we were 2. Please improve and renovate the place, I love it.

Good day Elisa
Glad you had a good stay.
Unfortunately due to load shedding the heater and air-con couldn't work during the load shedding period.
Will keep improving on our service. Kind regards

Personeel vriendelik en gasvry. Kamer en binne asook res van lodge se plafon het TLC nodig. Lodge/gebou is oud, opknapping dalk nodig, is ten minste skoon.

Gordynkap en plafon benodig opknapping in kamer, asook eetkamer se plafon. Vir kostes van kamer kan look en feel opgeknap word. Kamer lyk soos foto's, maar wys nie die vol prentjie waar opknappingswerk nodig is nie. Beddegoed skoon en daar is warm water, stort en badkamer skoon. Personeel is gasvry, behulpsaam en vriendelik. Wifi nie in kamer gewerk nie.

Staff friendly and hospitable. Room and interior as well as rest of lodge's ceiling need TLC. Lodge/building is old, may need renovation, at least is clean.

Curtains and ceiling need renovation in room, as well as dining room ceiling. For costs of room, look and feel can be renovated. Room looks like photos but does not show the full picture where renovations are needed. Bed linen clean and there is hot water, shower and bathroom clean. Staff are hospitable, helpful and friendly. Wifi not working in room.

Nabygeleë aan Nampo, lekker ontbyt is ingesluit, billike tarief. Beddens is baie gemaklik.

Baie sleg!

Kamer 19 kan van buite oopsluit, van binne kry jy nie die deur oopgesluit nie. Moes my kinders wakker bel om die sleutel onder deur te vat om oop te sluit. Gordyne trek nie mooi dig toe nie. Die sitkamer se gordynhakkies is weg. Niks kan behoorlik toetrek nie.

Very bad!

Room 19 can be unlocked from the outside, you will not get the door unlocked from the inside. Had to wake up my kids to take the key under the door to unlock. Curtains do not close properly. The living room's curtain hooks are gone. Nothing can tighten properly.

Goeiedag Dinkie, ons vra verskoning vir die ongerief en die gordyn wat nie na wense toegemaak het nie. Ons werk daaraan om die foute onmiddelik reg te stel. Groete. Wesselsbron Lodge Personeel

Not so happy.

The place didn't have water in the morning, I left without bathing and there was no communication. Or maybe it's a norm to not have water and warn your guests even a toilet paper was an issue.
