Gerieflike skoon plek.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Dit was gemaklik en vinnig om in te klok. Die eenheid was baie netjies en skoon, met koffie, tee, melk en beskuit. Die badkamer het ekstra seep en sjampoe gehad en die beddegoed was skoon en vars. Na 'n lang dag in Nelspruit kon ons hier heerlik rus!

Comfortable clean place.

We had a very nice stay. It was comfortable and quick to clock in. The unit was very neat and clean, with coffee, tea, milk and biscuits. The bathroom had extra soap and shampoo and the bedding was clean and fresh. After a long day in Nelspruit, we could rest wonderfully here!

Rustig en sentraal.

'n Goed toegeruste en netjiese akkommodasie. Daar is selfs 'n klein swembadjie om in af te koel. Dit voel asof 'n mens met vakansie is omdat die plek in 'n cul de sac geleë is en omring is met bome en groenigheid.

Quiet and central.

A well-equipped and tidy accommodation. There is even a small pool to cool off in. It feels like one is on vacation because the place is located in a cul de sac and is surrounded by trees and greenery.

Baie netjiese en lekker plek om te oornag met 1 groot fout.

Die feit dat die badkamer en toilet glad nie privaat is nie. Die oopplan-konsep (badkamer/toilet sonder deure en mure tot teen die dak) is beslis nie vir almal nie en dit is verstommend dat daar nogsteeds gastehuiseienaars is wat dink dat dit aanvaarbaar is. Niemand sal ooit 'n probleem hê met 'n privaat toilet of badkamer nie. Al ooit daaraan gedink?

Translate to English.

Very neat and nice place to spend the night with 1 big mistake.

The fact that the bathroom and toilet are not private at all. The open plan concept (bathroom/toilet without doors and walls up to the roof) is definitely not for everyone and it is amazing that there are still guest house owners who think that this is acceptable. No one will ever have a problem with a private toilet or bathroom. Ever thought about it?

Thank you for your feedback. Please note that these units were well thought and designed with space & light in mind. Our modern open-plan bathroom is separated from the bedroom with a wall and the toilet space was designed not as a focal point and is also separated with a wall for privacy. There is lots of photos on the site where one can see the units layout before booking.

Uitstekende waade vir geld.

Alles was puik - die diens, die gasvryheid, die natuurlewe (ons is voëlliefhebbers) en die verblyf. Sommer die hele ondervinding!

Rustige, stylvolle oornagfasiliteit

Ongelooflike rustige omgewing. Pragtige, netjiese en stylvolle fasiliteite. Die kamers is wonderlik toegerus met alles wat nodig is om so gerieflik moontlik te bly. Ideaal vir kinders! Die eienaars is uiters vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Beslis aan te bevele vir oornag na die Kruger.

Rustig.

Sal enige tyd die plekkie aanbeveel en sal beslis weer daar bly. Die eienaars het 'n mens dadelik laat tuis voel. Die kamer wat ons in gebly het was netjies, skoon en uit die boonste rakke. Dit is rustig. Jy kan lekker buite sit en die voëls hoor sing vroeg in die oggend.

Would recommend this place anytime and would definitely stay there again. The owners made you feel at home immediately. The room was neat, clean and of the best quality. It's peaceful. You can sit outside and enjoy the birds singing early in the morning.

Heerlike vakansie-atmosfeer in die stad.

René het daarin geslaag om mens tuis te laat voel. Dit het gevoel soos 'n vakansie, al was ek daar vir 'n werksessie. Sal weer daar tuisgaan in die toekoms.
