'n Gerieflike oornagpunt op die N1 Kaapstad-Pretoria.

Translate to English.
A convenient overnight stop on the N1 Cape Town-Pretoria.
We were a group of 4 adults, 3 children, 3 small dogs, 3 tow vehicles and 3 trailers and stayed overnight in 2 chalets. Joalani was willing to accommodate us. Joalani is located close to the N1, but was far enough that the traffic didn't bother us at all. We found Joalani very comfortable with plenty of room to turn with the vehicles and trailers without having to unhook or struggle forwards and backwards. The chalets were equipped as advertised with beds and mattresses which ensured a pleasant night's rest before another long shift the next day. In midsummer the chalets can get very hot, but the fans in the rooms make it much more bearable. The swimming pool on site is also lovely to cool off in.

Amazing Karoo hospitality - very good value for money.
There were 2 vegans traveling with us and at their request Mare made them the delicious vegan butternut squash dish, and then at their request also another salad and barbecue sandwiches. Our barbecue packs with real genuine Karoo lamb, barbecue buns, potato AND beetroot salad were unsurpassed! Their barbecue sandwiches are some of the best ever! We really felt at home - great service and hospitality - can recommend them with confidence.

Exactly what travelers need to recover from a long drive.
We were received very kindly and were very satisfied with our room and the facilities. We ordered dinner from Joalani and had an absolutely delicious meal. Something we would like to bring to their attention is the noises made by the "geyser" or the thorn tree branches on the roof. The wind was blowing quite strongly and the strange noises bothered us all night.

I was really pleasantly surprised. I stayed in the budget room, but had everything I needed. The price was very reasonable. I would even consider putting up my own tent next time. My room didn't have an en-suite bathroom, but the communal bathroom was beautifully neat, even though it was a little walk from the room. I was able to cool down in the swimming pool and I was happy that my dog was also welcome.

Horrible.
We arranged with Joalani that we would arrive earlier and it was okay with them, but when we got there the management was not there and they didn't arrange anything with the staff. We waited in the heat for an hour and no one came! Then drove back to Three Sisters for food hoping that when we arrived someone would be there. We then had to wait for an hour. The staff member just put us in a room. No air conditioning. At least the room was tidy. The pool is grass green which is probably the cause of all the mosquitoes. We only rested for two hours and started the road to Bloemfontein with two babies. We paid the full amount but honestly feel we shouldn't have. Would not recommend or use the place again.

Joalani Gastehuis 's response
Hi, eks jammer om al die klagtes te hoor! Ek het nooit adverteer dat ek lugreeling het nie. Ons inklok tyd is om 14:00, en die gas het aangevra om bietjie vroeer in te klok. Ons uitklok tyd is om 10:00, en hierdie gas het om 9 uur aangekom. Ek kan ongelukkig nie my vorige gaste aanvra om voor die uitklok tyd hul kamer te verlaat om nuwe gaste in te laat nie. Die kamer moet ook eers skoon gemaak word. Die gaste het slegs 'n paar uur gebly en na 14:00 verlaat en nie die nag oorgebly nie. Die swembad was nie groen nie en my ander gaste het die dag geswem. Aangaande die muskiete, ek verskaf masjienkies en spuitgif. Ongelukkig met die droogte, staan die water van die fontein en muskiete broei uit. Weereens se ek jammer dat dit hul ondervinding was.

Delicious coffee and biscuits awaited me after a long day in the car. They met me at late hours and very kindly called me before dawn, just to follow up if I was rested and enjoyed my stay. Thank you very much Joalani, it was a short visit with warm, hospitable, new friends.

Jammer om te hoor! Die skaaptjops, wors en braaibroodjie plus waatlemoen is 'n ligte ete wat beslis die prys gestand doen, selfs in die Karoo is ongelukkig niks verniet nie. Die ontbyt wat uit jogurt, vrugte, muesli, 2 eiers, 2 repe rugspek, 2 stukke wors plus 2 snye roosterbrood, sap en koffie bestaan is nie 'klein' soos u dit beskryf nie. As gasvrou is ek jammer dat u nie die probleem tydens u verblyf genoem het nie.
