Okay.
Aladdin's Chameleon Overnight Accommodation 's response
Shane, Thank you for your review. The accommodation is listed as a guesthouse as we offer 'Overnight Accommodation' yet completely different from that of a Backpackers. Therefore we clearly say in our name, our description and our welcome letter that we are not self-catering. The images in the advert correctly display the facilities and what is available in the units.
We offer affordable overnight accommodation for those who would rather save and splurge on eating out, etc, as you said you like doing!
We loved meeting you and chatting to you and wish you many more travel adventures.

Dankie vir die resensie Renate. Dit was lekker om jou en julle familie te ontmoet. Dit is gaaf dat jy uitwys dat C2 beste is vir Oornag Akkommodasie vir reisigers of vir troues. Dankie daarvoor. C1 en C3 is wel bietjie meer maar beter vir 'n paar dae in die Meander. Ons hoop om julle weer te sien vir 'n paar dae se lekke verkenning!

Affordable accommodation and excellent service.
Very affordable! Booked here again after is wat the only available accommodation a few years ago when it snowed. Received excellent service back then and now again. Do not expect luxury for this price, but take time to have a conversation with people here and explore the shops, books and garden. You'll discover something that you can't buy - passion, sincerity and care.

RDP huis wat iemand probeer verhuur as 'n kothuis.

Translate to English.
RDP house that someone is trying to rent out as a cottage.
The unit sits 100m from a Spar with a bottle store, which means it is noisy and lots of people walking up and down the front of the unit. One does not feel safe. The unit also sits right off the main street. Your car parks in the high street with only a small gate protecting it under a dilapidated awning. The unit is very dated, feels cheap, run down and is very small. It literally feels like an outside room that someone half-heartedly tried to convert into a Cottage. The TV is very old, small and does not work. The fridge is a good 20 years old and the furniture looks like something someone threw out and then carried into the unit.

Hallo Ewert
Dankie vir jou terugvoer. Ons is jammer dat ons bekostigbare (budget) akkommodasie julle nie gepas het nie. Ons hoop julle sal volgende keer iets vind wat julle behoeftes bevredig, want die Meander is n veilige, vreedsame en beeldskone bestemming. Ons deur staan altyd oop sou jy n probleem he terwyl jy hier oorbly. Dit is jammer dat jy geen probleme geraporteer het nie, want jou gemak is belangrik vir ons. Ons is ook meer as gewillig om jou op te gradeer na n duurder eenhied indien nodig.
Vir reisigers wat bekostigbare, skoon akkommodasie soek met vriendelike ontvangs, hoop ons dat voornemende gaste ons ander resensies van dieselfde eenheid in gedagte hou. Vriendelike groete, Jan & Louise

Hi Vivian
Ons is jammer dat on nie n fit was vir jou vereistes nie. Ons hoop dat jou met jou volgende besoek aan die Midlands iewers sal bespeek wat meer in jou smaak val.
Ons aanvaar dat budget akkommodasie nie vir almal is nie, maar dat daar wel mense is wat akkommodasie teen redelike pryse verlang wat nie luukses insluit nie, maar wel goeie beddens, soos jy noem, en warm water en skoon linne en om veilig te slaap

Dear Marietjie. Thank you for your review. One cannot be overly cautious when it comes to the temperatures which can drop unexpectedly in Nottingham Road, so we are happy that you were cosy!. We appreciate you pointing out that there is really no kitchen, as we are advertising overnight accommodation and try to make sure everyone knows it is not self-catering.

Beste Johan,
Baie dankie vir jou resensie. Ons is jammer jy het nie veilig gevoel hier in rustige Nottingham Road nie. Ons woon nou al twintig jaar baie lekker en veilig hier en deel graag ons dorpie met ander wat wil wegkom van die stad. Daar is wel diefwerings, maar dis eintlik daar sodat julle gerus kan slaap! Ons sal egter meer moeite doen om ander besoekers veilg te laat voel.
Ons is darem bly dat julle en jul voertuig toe veilig was vir die twee nagte wat julle by ons deurgebring het en hoop dat julle julle kuier in die Midlands verder geniet het.

Liewe Paula
Ons is jammer dat jy nie waarde vir geld kon vind in ons akkommodasie nie.
Hierdie is woordeliks ons advertensie vir ons oornagplek: "Chameleon 3 het 'n dubbelbed. Elke eenheid het 'n en suite-badkamer met 'n bad of 'n stort. Die kamers het ook 'n TV met plaaslike kanale, mikrogolf, yskas, asook tee- en koffie-maak geriewe. Die eenhede het 'n privaat ingang. Parkeerplek is beskikbaar."
Hierdie is die epos wat almal ontvang voor hulle inboek om seker te maak jy weet wat om te verwag.
Ons eenhede is nie selfsorg nie, maar oornag akkommodasie vir reisigers wat die begroting dophou. Ons bedien nie ontbyt nie, maar daar is baie goeie restaurante binne 'n paar minute van ons af."
Laat weet tog asseblief vir ons wat nie beskikbaar was wat op ons advertensie is nie, want dit is vir ons baie belangrik dat wat op die foto is en op die lys is wel is wat jy kry. Aangesien ek persoonlik die kamer geinspekteer het en ons geen klagtes van julle gekry het terwyl julle hier was nie weet ons nie waarna jy verwys as, "not what was advertised".
Ons wil graag ons oornag akkommodasie aanhou aanbied vir mense wat iets bekostigbaar in die Middelande soek en sal meer besonderhede van jou af waardeer oor waaroor jy ontevrede was.
Vriendelike groete
