Clean and tidy, everything needed and a meal would have been a bonus. As a solo traveler, Vyfster is ideal. If with a partner, it's a different matter. There are no restaurants nearby or options for going out. Recommendation: If someone has driven 8-9 hours, it would be nice to find a fresh meal in the fridge. If you can work in an option for an evening meal according to the guest's dietary preferences with the reservation, is it: sandwich, salad, even a cooked meal? This can be offered as an additional option. This would always be welcome in my case. One wants to go to sleep and rest for the next day's shift, and a good dinner and a good night's rest are the 2 things that are important for long-distance travelers. Thank you very much for a clean bed, linen, kitchen and bathroom, it was also welcome and reassuring. Greetings.

Skoon en netjies, alles wat nodig was en 'n maaltyd sou 'n bonus gewees het. As alleenreisiger is Vyfster ideaal. As met lewensmaat, wel 'n ander saak. Daar is nie restaurant naby of uitgaan moontlikhede nie. Aanbeveling: As iemand 8-9 ure gery het, sal dit aangenaam wees om in die yskas 'n vars maaltyd te vind. As u met die bespreking 'n opsie kan inwerk vir 'n aandmaaltyd volgens die dieetvoorkeur van die gas, het dit: toebroodjie, slaaitjie, selfs gekookte maaltyd? Dit kan as addisionele opsie aangebied word. Dit sal altyd in my geval welkom wees. Mens wil gaan slaap en uitrus vir die volgende dag se skof, en 'n goeie aandete en nagrus is die 2 goed wat belangrik is vir langafstandreisigers. Baie dankie vir 'n skoon bed, linne, kombuis en badkamer, dit was ook welkom gerusstellend. Groete.

The place is very interesting, spacious and safe. The Interrogation Room was very spacious, neat and secure. Our pets were together and there was plenty of space. The beds need new mattresses and the chairs in the kitchen at the table are lame. Furthermore, the headboard of the bed closest to the cupboards bangs against the wall with every turn. Hope it can be fixed because it's a really cool overnight stop!

Die plekkie is baie interessant, ruim en veilig. Die Interrogation Room was baie ruim, netjies en veilig. Ons troeteldiere was saam en daar was oorgenoeg ruimte. Die beddens kort nuwe matrasse en die stoele in die kombuis by die tafel is lame gesit. Verder kap die kopstuk van die bed naaste aan die kaste teen die muur met elke omdraai slag. Hoop dit kan reggestel word want dis regtig 'n oulike oornagstop!

Very original. Facilities were good and tidy. Automatic check-in system very nice. Love the way the rooms are historically preserved, yet have all the amenities.

Baie oorspronklik. Geriewe was goed en netjies. Automatiese inklok sisteem baie oulik. Hou van die manier wat die kamers histories bewaar is, tog al die geriewe het.

Safe, quiet, clean. Safe, clean, peaceful, everything you need for an overnight stay. Definitely worth the money with beautiful stone walls and history.

Veilig, rustige, skoon. Veilig, skoon, rustige, alles wat jy nodig het om te oornag. Beslis die geld werd met mooiste klipmure en historie.

Interesting place. Yes. The prison is very well used and the room is nicely furnished. I just think all the many white curtains around the bath and bed are unnecessary and they don't fit there.

Interessante plek. Ja. Die tronk is baie goed aangewend en die kamer is mooi ingerig. Ek dink net al die baie wit gordyntjies rondom die bad en bed is onnodig en dit pas nie daar nie.

Enjoyable, will recommend Vyfster The Old Jail. What an innovative idea. We were a group of 7 hikers returning from Namibia and we all loved it. The 3rd bed in cell 2 is in need of an electric blanket. Access was easy, and the establishment is secure. An enjoyable short stay. WiFi was weak to non-existent.

Nice little place. I was pulled by the name The Old Jail, and it's an honest-to-God old prison from the look of the building. We only stayed for one night, but it was a welcome break from long distances of driving. We had a pleasant overnight stay there.
