Restful. It was a very peaceful overnight stay. With very helpful owners.

Rustig. Baie rustige oornagplekkie gewees. Met baie behulpsame eienaars.

Nice rooms. The owner did not know about our reservation. Luckily I kept my bookings and emails. Owner was friendly and had rooms available for us but not the units that were booked. Many thanks for the owner's help and kindness. Would recommend Sondela.

Mooi kamers. Die eienaar het nie van ons bespreking geweet nie. Gelukkig het ek my besprekings en e-posse gehou. Eienaar was vriendelik en het vir ons kamers beskikbaar gehad maar nie die eenhede wat bespreek was nie. Baie dankie vir die eienaar se hulp en vriendelikheid. Sal Sondela aanbeveel.

Accommodation at Sondela is sufficient. Sandra really put a lot of effort into my accommodation at Sondela. The accommodation is adequate and the people are friendly. Reservations are made at places to eat for the evening. Sondela's owner goes the extra mile to make you feel welcome.

Verblyf by Sondela is voldoende. Sandra het regtig baie moeite met my akkommodasie by Sondela gedoen. Die verblyf is voldoende en die mense is vriendelik. Daar word tot besprekings gemaak by eetplekke vir die aand. Sondela se eienaar gaan die ekstra myl om mens welkom te laat voel.

Accommodation is neat and pleasant. Sondela Guest House is conditionally a pleasant and neat place to stay after a long road or for business in town or nearby. I would definitely recommend Sondela, they are friendly and helpful and willing to open the place until late at night.

Verblyf is netjies en genoegsaam. Sondela gastehuis is voorwaardelik 'n aangename en netjiese plek om te oornag na 'n lang pad of vir besigheid in die dorp of nabye omtrek. Ek sal Sondela definitief aanbeveel, hulle is vriendelik en hulpvaardig en bereid om tot in die laat ure van die aand die plek oop te sluit vir mens.

Good. Good for an overnight stay, but not a real self-catering unit.

Goed. Goed vir oorbly, maar nie 'n regte self sorg-eenheid nie.

Very comfortable and hospitable. Their biggest unit has 4 beds but we are a family of 5, they gladly accommodated us with an extra mattress. Also happy to accommodate our pets.

Never again. The owners are totally uninvolved. I just had to figure out how things worked as I went. Never got the WiFi password in 5 days. On the 2nd morning of my stay I had to bathe in the pool because there was no water! (No jokes.) I got up at 5am because I had early appointments. To my shock, I found that there was no water and no one to inquire with! The (I assume) managers arrived by 06:00 and set up water credit which then provided water. By this time I was already "bathed" in the pool. The room was incredibly hot and the fan in the room was like emptying a 1000 liter drum with a small teaspoon. The list is actually endless. From shower where the water is then hot and then cold to broken window trim, meaning I couldn't open window in incredibly hot room. But in short, if I never get there again, it will be exactly 1000 years too soon. The only bright spot was the willingness of the (I assume she is the on-site managers) to help where she could.

Nooit weer nie. Die eienaars is totaal onbetrokke. Ek moes maar hoe dinge werk uitvind soos ek gaan. In 5 dae nooit die WiFi password gekry nie. Oggend 2 van my verblyf moes ek in swembad gaan bad want daar was geen water nie! (Geen grappies nie.) Ek het 05:00 opgestaan omdat ek vroeg afsprake gehad het. Tot my skok moes ek agterkom daar was geen water nie en niemand by wie ek kon navraag doen nie! Die (ek neem aan) bestuurderes het teen 06:00 opgedaag en water krediet opgesit wat toe water verskaf het. Teen hierdie tyd was ek reeds "gebad" in die swembad. Die kamer was ongelooflik warm en die waaier in die kamer was soos om met 'n klein teelepel 'n 1000 liter drom leeg te skep. Die lys is eintlik eindeloos. Van stort waar die water dan warm en dan koud is tot stukkende vensterknip, wat beteken dat ek nie venster in ongelooflik warm kamer kon oopmaak nie. Maar in kort as ek nooit weer daar kom nie, sal dit presies 1000 jaar te gou wees. Die enigste ligpunt was die bereidwilligheid van die (ek neem aan sy is die on-site bestuurderes) om te help waar sy kon.

Sufficient for a quick overnight stay - neat and clean. Service upon our late evening arrival was great. Accommodation was clean and tidy, perfect for a quick stopover before we would travel on again. Suggestion for milk instead of powdered milk with coffee and tea in rooms.

Voldoende vir 'n vinnige oornag - netjies en skoon. Diens met ons aankoms laat in die aand was puik. Verblyf was skoon en netjies, perfek vir 'n vinnige oorslaap voor ons weer verder sou reis. Voorstel vir melk i.p.v. poeier melk saam met koffie en tee in kamers.

I am very glad you enjoyed it. In the future I will ask for fresh milk or are the bags ok. regards Sandra

Ek is baie bly julle het dit geniet. In die toekoms sal ek vra vir vars melk of is die sakkies reg. Groete Sandra

Good stay with 1 or 2 small problems. Overall, good stay. We were 3 colleagues who stayed there together. My experience was very good, but both my colleagues had to shower in cold water, as there was no hot water. One also complained that it was the most uncomfortable bed he had ever slept on. Small things that need attention, but overall, a satisfactory experience for the price.

Goeie verblyf met 1 of 2 klein probleempies. Oor die algemeen, goeie verblyf. Ons was 3 kollegas wat saam daar gebly het. My ondervinding was heel goed, maar beide my kollegas moes in koue water stort, aangesien daar nie warm water was nie. Een het ook gekla dat dit die ongemaklikste bed is waarop hy nog ooit geslaap het. Klein goedjies wat aandag kort, maar oor die algemeen, 'n bevredigende ervaring vir die prys.

Dear Elise, Sorry about the water. As I mentioned, it is very cold here in the winter. I also tell everyone to shower or bathe instead in the evening because the water only warms up later the next morning because it freezes during the night. Regarding the bed - I can't believe it as all my mattresses are new Cloud 9 mattresses. All I can say is that I am terribly sorry about that. Regards, Sandra

Beste Elize, Jammer oor die water. Soos ek genoem het, is dit baie koud hier in die winter. Ek noem ook aan almal om eerder in die aand te stort of bad omdat die water eers later die volgende oggend weer warm word want dit vries gedurende die nag. Rakende die bed - ek kan dit nie glo nie aangesien al my matrasse nuwe Cloud 9 matrasse is. Al wat ek kan sê is dat ek vreeslik jammer daaroor is. Groete, Sandra
