Baie goed ingerig vir twee of drie dae se oorslaap.

Was redelik ontnugter toe ek opdaag en daar geen ontvangs is nie, moes toe later hoor dat volgens die website ek die eienaar 3 ure voor die tyd moes laat weet dat ek daar sal wees. Eienaar was baie annoying om jou nou eers te wys hoe alles werk en dat jy versigtig moet wees om niks te breek nie. Sal ek weer daar bly? Moontlik en moontlik nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Very well equipped for a two or three day overnight stay.

Was quite disillusioned when I arrived and there was no reception, then had to learn later that according to the website I had to let the owner know 3 hours in advance that I would be there. Owner was very annoying to show you how everything works and that you have to be careful not to break anything. Would I stay there again? Possible and possibly not.

Ons het glad nie daarvan gehou nie.

Die plek is baie mooi, maar baie ongemaklik. Geen skoonmaakdiens. Offer nie eers om skoon te maak vir ekstra fooi nadat ons daaroor navraag gedoen het nie. Kan ons nie eers help met 'n rolletjie toiletpapier nie. Ons moet weer oor 2 weke teruggaan Kaap toe en sal vir seker nie hier bly nie. Beveel dit vir niemand aan nie. Die foto hierbo is nie hoe ons kamer gelyk het nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

We didn't like it at all.

The place is very beautiful, but very uncomfortable. No cleaning service. Not even offering to clean for extra fee after we inquired about it. Can't even help us with a roll of toilet paper. We have to go back to the Cape again in 2 weeks and for sure will not stay here. Do not recommend it to anyone. The photo above is not what our room looked like.

Cat's Eye Cottage 's response

Good day Yolanda,

Thank you for your feedback.

Usually, if our guests familiarize themselves with all terms and conditions prior to their booking at Cat's Eye Cottage, they will have a more enjoyable stay.

With regards to your comment on the cleaning service, we advertise that the cottage is serviced before check in and after check out. I went in daily to clean your bin and to remove all towels, except on the last day, where you refused, at no extra charge.

We are a self-catering accommodation, as advertised and we did supply you with 2 complimentary rolls of toilet paper.

With regards to your comment, “foto hierbo is nie hoe ons kamer gelyk het nie” refers. You booked Cottage 2. As per TravelGrounds website and the room you booked we are in no way misrepresenting or falsely advertising this room. All information on the website is a true and honest reflection of the accommodation.

As advertised our check in is after 14h00, unfortunately, you had arrived at 10h20, with out any notice. We do ask on the website that you please notify us of your estimated time of arrival at least three hours ahead of time, as we would love to arrange for somebody to check you in.

You are welcome to pop in again if you are ever in the Cape for a Cappuccino, Macchiato or Espresso.

Regards,
Rainer.

Dear Izak,

Fabulous, phenominal.

Not enough words to explain my experience at the Cat's Eye Cottage. Just believe me when I say it was fantastic. Reception, cleanliness, luxurious in every way, peace and quiet, privacy, many shopping malls close by if you are a shopaholic as I am, just out of this world. A bit expensive though, but value for money. I really enjoyed my long stay there, and I can consider going back there when there is a need. Highly recommended. I hope after they have finished their renovations they will consider having a very nice sign board. For me that was the only thing missing.

Wat 'n pragtige plekkie om tuis te gaan!

Ons sal beslis weer hier kuier. Met die intrapslag voel jy tuis in hierdie pragtige gemeubileerde woonstel met sy pragtige tuin. Die gasheer en gasvrou gaan uit hul pad om jou tuis te laat voel. Dis super skoon met bederfies soos koffie, melk en suiker vir die oornagreisiger. Die badkamer gee die indruk van weelde. Ons sal dit beslis aanbeveel aan enige iemand wat hier wil tuisgaan.

We will definitely visit here again. As soon as you step in, you feel at home in this beautiful furnished apartment with its beautiful garden. The host and hostess go out of their way to make you feel at home. It's super clean with treats like coffee, milk and sugar for the overnight traveler. The bathroom gives the impression of luxury. We would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to stay here.
