Nice but different. It had been something else.

Lekker maar anders. Dit was iets anders gewees.

Earthy, interesting and pleasant. Friendly and helpful hostess. Interesting and pleasant stay with a different perspective. We had a nice stay.

Aards, interessant en aangenaam. Vriendelike en hulpvaardige gasvrou. Interessante en aangename verblyf met 'n ander perspektief. Ons het lekker gebly.

A very interesting and nice place to stay that we really enjoyed. It was a very comfortable place to stay and was made for 2 people. Luckily we are still young and mobile enough for the stairs so it was not a problem for us. The bathroom which is outside is not always so comfortable for getting up during the night, but nothing to complain about. The toilet was a compost toilet which was clean and tidy with no smell hanging around, which may not be for everyone, but for us it was not a problem and we really enjoyed our stay. The fact that there was no TV or WiFi was very nice, because who needs that when you are on a weekend getaway. We really enjoyed it. We were within walking distance of everything going on in the small town, which was very comfortable and convenient. Everything was clean and very tidy and there is everything you need.

'n Baie interessante en lekker plekkie om te bly wat ons baie geniet het. Dit was 'n baie gerieflike plekkie om in te bly en is gemaak vir 2 mense. Ons is gelukkig nog jonk en mobiel genoeg vir die trappe en daarom was dit nie vir ons 'n probleem nie. Die badkamer wat buite is, is nie altyd so gemaklik vir deur die nag opstaan nie, maar niks om oor te kla nie. Die toilet was 'n kompos toilet wat skoon en netjies was met geen reuk wat rondhang nie, wat dalk nie vir almal is nie, maar vir ons was dit nie 'n probleem nie en het regtig baie lekker gebly. Die feit dat daar nie 'n TV of WiFi was nie, was baie lekker, want wie het dit nou nodig as jy op 'n wegbreek naweek is. Ons het dit baie geniet. Ons was loopafstand van alles wat in die klein dorpie aangaan, wat baie gemaklik en gerieflik was. Alles was skoon en baie netjies en daar is alles wat jy nodig het.

Affordable stay in small & unique setting. It was exactly as described - an affordable and uniquely styled option for an overnight stay in the heart of Nieu Bethesda. As mentioned in the description, it has steep stairs (upstairs loft mattress bed) and a separately attached bathroom and composting toilet. A basic yet clean and small place with everything you need in the kitchen for a self-catering stay.

Well located in a very interesting town. The Water Tower had everything I needed for a stopover. It was exceptionally hot with unusually many mosquitoes, but at least there was a fan and insect repellent.

Goed geleë in 'n uiters interessante dorp. The Water Tower het alles gehad wat ek nodig gehad het vir 'n oornagpunt. Dit was uitsonderlik warm met buitengewoon baie muskiete, maar daar was darem 'n waaier en insekweerder.

Unique, neat & comfortable accommodation. A very unique experience to stay in an old water tower! Accommodation is comfortable, with everything you need, and the wooden deck is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, or a glass of wine under the Karoo stars. Definitely value for money!

Uniek, netjies & gemaklike verblyf. 'n Baie unieke ervaring om in 'n ou watertoring te bly! Verblyf is gemaklik, met alles wat jy nodig het, en die hout dek is die perfekte plek om jou oggend koffie, of 'n glas wyn onder die Karoo sterre te geniet. Beslis waarde vir geld!

Comfortable, clean and affordable accommodation. Very pleasant stay. The Water Tower may not be for everyone. There is a very narrow staircase to the bedroom above the kitchen, and preferably not for older people. The toilet and shower are a separate room outside, so keep that in mind especially if you want to use the facilities during the night. Very comfortable place to stay that is unique for people who like something different.

Gerieflike, skoon en bekostigbare verblyf. Baie aangename verblyf. The Water Tower sal dalk nie vir almal wees nie. Daar is 'n baie nou trappie na die slaapkamer bo die kombuis, en verkieslik nie vir ouer persone nie. Die toilet en stort is 'n aparte vertrek buite, so hou dit in gedagte veral as jy die geriewe deur die nag wil gebruik. Baie gerieflike blyplek wat uniek is vir mense wat hou van iets anders.

Perfect location. Quirky accommodation. This is a wonderful, different kind of stay for young people/students who expect little of accommodation, as it is very basic. The outside loo was unexpected, and a bit of a mission getting down the steep flight of stairs from the bedroom to go outside at night. The staircase could do with a safety railing as it was daunting negotiating the narrow space between the bed and the hole of the staircase.
