Nice to be able to spend the night in a place with character! It was truly a pleasant experience!

Lekker om te kon oornag in 'n plek met karakter! Dit was voorwaar 'n aangename ervaring!

Incredible experience. It was an incredible experience for all of us! Will definitely stay there again if we are ever back in that part of the world. Kids had so much fun!

Ongelooflike ervaring. Dit was 'n ongelooflike ervaring vir ons almal! Sal beslis weer daar bly as ons ooit weer daai kant van die wêreld is. Kinders het dit so geniet!

Good but an aircon would have made a huge difference. Had a pleasant stay except for the extreme heat and the absence of an aircon.

Comfortable. Air conditioner would be fantastic.

Gerieflik. Lugversorger sal fantasties wees.

Very special building with interesting history. The area in which the accommodation is located is not neat, but once you are through the gate, you feel safe.

Baie besondere gebou met interessante geskiedenis. Die area waarin die verblyf geleë is, is nie netjies nie, maar as jy eers deur die hek is, voel jy veilig.

Working portable aircon. Unfortunately WiFi did not work. Yes. The room was very neat. We appreciated the history of the place. Unfortunately the WiFi did not work. The manager was reachable by phone call, but did not respond to WhatsApp messages.

Werkende portable aircon. WiFi het ongelukkig nie gewerk nie. Ja. Die kamer was baie netjies. Ons het die geskiedenis van die plek waardeer. Die WiFi het ongelukkig nie gewerk nie. Die bestuurder was bereikbaar per telefoniese oproep, maar het nie op WhatsApp boodskappe gereageer nie.

Didn't sleep well, room too hot for air conditioning. For an overnight stay it's okay. Was too hot for aircon. Aircon exhaust blows under wooden floor which makes floor warm and room can't cool down. Opened room door at 03:00 and sat outside because it was cooler outside than in room. Might work in winter, but not summer. Place was neat and clean. Host's directions were good. Maybe they should pay attention to ventilation, especially room 1, because there is no window.

Nie lekker geslaap, kamer te warm t.o.v. aircon. Vir oornag is dit okay. Was te warm t.o.v. aircon. Uitlaat van aircon blaas onder houtvloer wat vloer warm maak en kamer kan nie afkoel. Het 03:00 kamerdeur òpgemaak en buite gaan sit want dit was koeler buite as in kamer. Sal dalk werk in winter, maar nie somer nie. Plek was netjies en skoon. Gasheer se aanwysings was goed. Dalk moet hul aandag gee aan ventilasie, veral kamer 1, want daar is geen venster nie.

Sleep well. Nice stay. Short hooks in the bathroom to hang clothes.

Lekker geslaap. Lekker gebly. Kort hakkies in die badkamer om klere op te hang.
