Very convenient and friendly service. Owners helpful. The owners of the place welcomed us very well. We will book there again anytime. Will refer guests. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Baie gerieflik en vriendelike diens. Eienaars behulpsaam. Die eienaars van die plek het ons baie goed verwelkom. Ons sal enige tyd weer daar book. Sal gaste verwys. Dankie vir 'n heerlike bly.

The place was perfect. But would have been perfect without dogs. We enjoyed the place, it was perfect. We enjoyed it, its also safe and beautiful.

Thank you very much for your review, We apologise for the welcoming that our dogs gave you. Unfortunately without knowing you had entered via our private entrance. We will make sure that there is no problem next time.

We are indeed very sorry that tour stay with us was not what you were expecting. As you experienced with our parking we are a very busy B&B and our other reviews show that our guests like what we have got to offer. Should you ever stay with us again we will give you a substantial reduction on your rate.

Disappointing. The accommodation wasn't up to standard. The photos on the website are very misleading. It isn't a comfortable, neat place to stay.

Teleurstellend. Die verblyf was nie op standaard nie. Die foto's en die website is baie misleidend. Dis nie 'n gemaklike, netjiese blyplek nie.

Hi Charles, we are indeed sorry that you did not have a good experience with us. As you know there were things that were out of our control and because of this we did offer you, in the beginning, a full refund so that you could find something else. However you declined our offer and decided to take the room as it was. Needless to say, we certainly would have liked the outcome to be a better one but circumstances did not permit it.

Hallo Charles, ons is inderdaad jammer dat jy nie 'n goeie ervaring met ons gehad het nie. Soos u weet was daar dinge wat buite ons beheer was en daarom het ons u wel aan die begin 'n volle terugbetaling aangebied sodat u iets anders kon kry. U het egter ons aanbod van die hand gewys en besluit om die kamer te neem soos dit was. Nodeloos om te sê, ons sou beslis wou gehad het dat die uitkoms 'n beter een was, maar omstandighede het dit nie toegelaat nie.

We must apologise for your poor experience. It was unfortunate that as we explained at the time we do not offer or advertise three-quarter beds. Our advert clearly states single beds. The other room that was offered to you as an alternative had a double bed and a full sized double sleeper couch. We do feel that your low rating is harsh in view of the fact that we were not at fault with your booking and that rating should rather be directed at TravelGround/LekkerSlaap who handled your reservation. We are proud of the value for money that we offer as is shown in the many other favourable reviews that we receive. The other important point that you omitted to say was that we did not quibble in giving you a full cash refund. Once again apologies for all the hassles.

Service was Excellent! From arrival until departure, everything was on point. Place was clean and the garden was beautiful. Any time I'm in East London, Portside Inn is where you will find me.

Close to everything that makes it easy to get everywhere quickly. The gates with the locks make it much safer, but the gates with the locks just make a lot of noise.

Naby alles wat dit maklik maak om gou oral uit te kom. Die hekke met die slotte maak dit baie veiliger, maar die hekke met die slotte raas net baie.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry about the noisy gates, we will have to find some way of making them quieter. Regards, Mignon and Mervyn.

Dankie vir jou resensie. Ons is jammer oor die raserige hekke, ons sal 'n manier moet vind om dit stiller te maak. Groete, Mignon en Mervyn.
