Host didn't leave key for us as arranged, had to make a few phone calls after hours to get access to the unit. House noisy inside. No alternative power when there is loadshedding. Bathroom very inconvenient and small. Otherwise fine.

Dear Rinie, I am so sorry about the communication issue on our side and that you had to wait 10 min for me to get there after you called. We do contact all guests prior to them arriving so that that have my cell number to call for any issues so they can be speedily resolved. All our rooms are provided with battery backup bulbs so that they have light during load shedding. Our Wi-Fi has back up and has never been down, even in 4 hour load shedding we have been on line and our geysers stay hot. We are looking at installing a gas hob for cooking as load shedding looks to increase, we do try to be proactive to keep our guests comfortable. I can recommend chatting to your host for future stays as all of us, in this industry, will go out of our way to resolve any problems and make sure you are comfortable. We are generally known for our restful stay but while you were here we did have a young couple celebrating a birthday rather noisy on the one morning, this is not a norm and we allowed a bit of celebrating before asking them to tone it down, perhaps I should have closed it down straight away - a difficult call for a host, as you want to try and keep everyone happy. We handle each situation on its own merits depending on time of day etc. Again if any other guests advise a problem then we close it down straight away. Our bathrooms are a standard en-suite format but we will certainly take a look and see what we can do to make it more use friendly. I really appreciate the time you have taken to do a review, guest experiences are very important and we will be taking your suggestions to heart and seeing how we can improve the overall experience. Regards. Gail

Beste Rinie, ek is so jammer oor die kommunikasie kwessie aan ons kant en dat jy 10 min moes wag vir my om daar te kom nadat jy gebel het. Ons kontak wel alle gaste voor hulle aankom sodat dit my selfoonnommer het om te bel vir enige probleme sodat dit vinnig opgelos kan word. Al ons kamers is voorsien van battery-rugsteungloeilampe sodat dit lig het tydens beurtkrag. Ons Wi-Fi is terug op en was nog nooit af nie, selfs in 4 uur beurtkrag was ons aanlyn en ons geisers bly warm. Ons kyk na die installering van 'n gaskookplaat vir kook, aangesien beurtkrag toeneem, ons probeer proaktief wees om ons gaste gemaklik te hou. Ek kan aanbeveel om met jou gasheer te gesels vir toekomstige verblyf aangesien almal van ons in hierdie bedryf uit ons pad sal gaan om enige probleme op te los en seker te maak dat jy gemaklik is. Ons is oor die algemeen bekend vir ons rustige verblyf, maar terwyl jy hier was, het ons wel 'n jong paartjie gehad wat op die een oggend 'n verjaarsdag gevier het, dit is nie 'n norm nie en ons het 'n bietjie fees gegun voordat ons gevra het om dit te verlig, miskien Ek moes dit dadelik toegemaak het - 'n moeilike oproep vir 'n gasheer, want jy wil probeer om almal gelukkig te hou. Ons hanteer elke situasie op sy eie meriete, afhangende van tyd van die dag, ens. Weereens as enige ander gaste 'n probleem adviseer, maak ons dit dadelik toe. Ons badkamers is 'n standaard en suite-formaat, maar ons sal beslis kyk en kyk wat ons kan doen om dit meer gebruiksvriendelik te maak. Ek waardeer die tyd wat jy geneem het om 'n resensie te doen, gaste se ervarings is baie belangrik en ons sal jou voorstelle ter harte neem en kyk hoe ons die algehele ervaring kan verbeter. Groete. Gail

In a quiet, peaceful area with clean facilities. The guest house was well located for me, well laid out, very clean and tidy. The staff were also helpful and friendly. Just remember not to forget to arrange for parking.

In 'n stil, rustige area met skoon geriewe. Die gastehuis was goed geleë vir my, goed uiteengesit, baie skoon en netjies. Die staf was ook behulpsaam en vriendelik. Onthou net om nie te vergeet om te reël vir parkering nie.

Average. Fairly comfortable. Pillows and towels not great. Only half a toilet roll for 3 days. Mosquitos bad and no repellent supplied. For the price we expected a little more.

Charming, artsy accommodation, super central location. Safe accommodation in a comfortable artist's house, close to various restaurants. Lovely morning coffee in a peaceful garden with the birds singing in the background and a beautiful mountain view.

Sjarmante kunstenaarswoning in uiterste sentrale ligging. Veilige verblyf in gerieflike kunstenaarshuis, naby 'n wye verskeidenheid van restaurante. Heerlike oggendkoffie in rustige tuintjie met die sang van voëls, en pragtige uitsig op die berge rondom.

It's fine, but wouldn't stay there again. The fan in our bedroom did not work. Fresh milk for coffee was nice.

Dis fine, maar sal nie weer daar bly nie. Die fan in ons slaapkamer het nie gewerk nie. Vars melk vir koffie was lekker.

We found the studio quaint and comfortable. This place is suitable for a quiet get away. Has WiFi which is good for a group but no television or pool area to have gatherings.
