Dankie, maar nee dankie.

Dit was nie wat ek verwag het nie. Die foto's skep 'n indruk wat nie in werklikheid so is nie. Teëls by die stort was gekraak. Die wasbak se krane is so los dat wanneer jy hande wil was en die kraan toedraai, dan draai die hele kraan. Ons was 3 persone in een kamer en daar was net 2 handdoeke. Ons het nie eers melk gekry om saam met ons koffie te drink nie. Die goedkoopste koffie op die mark. Ek het al in gastehuise geslaap vir dieselfde prys en het ten minste melk en beter kwaliteit koffie gekry. Die sekuriteitsman by die hek was glad nie vriendelik nie. Ons het gevoel soos indringers toe ons daar stop. Die dame by ontvangs was wel baie vriendelik. Die ligging is wel goed - naby die lughawe vir mense wat moet vlieg die volgende oggend, maar volgende keer ry ek eerder verder of betaal selfs bietjie duurder om in 'n ander gastehuis te gaan bly waar die foto's my nie mislei nie.

Thanks, but no thanks.

It was not what I expected. The photos create an impression that is not the case in reality. Tiles in the shower were cracked. The sink's faucets are so loose that when you want to wash your hands and turn the faucet off, the entire faucet turns. We were 3 people in one room and there were only 2 towels. We didn't even get milk to go with our coffee. The cheapest coffee on the market. I have slept in guesthouses for the same price and at least got milk and better quality coffee. The security man at the gate was not friendly at all. We felt like intruders when we stopped there. The lady at reception was very friendly. The location is good - close to the airport for people who have to fly the next morning, but next time I'd rather drive further or even pay a little more to stay in another guest house where the pictures don't mislead me.

Was baie lekker.

Dit was alles netjies en skoon. Bo my verwagting. Die ontbyt was ook baie lekker. Die vervoer van en na lughawe is uitstekend.

Aaklig.

Ons kamer was glad nie op standaard nie, die meubels is afgeleef en oud, die yskas lek water en het roesplekke in. Die vloer en muurteëls is plek-plek stukkend en die badkamer ruik na muf, ons wou dit nie eers gebruik nie.

Horrible.

Our room was not up to standard at all, the furniture was shabby and old, the fridge was leaking water and had spots of rust in it. The floor and wall tiles are broken in places and the bathroom smells musty, we didn't even want to use it.

I just sleep over for my next day trip and it's convenient.

I just spend the night and leave early in the morning for my flight. The transport is such a help and the hospitality is always good. The rooms are always clean. Thank you Doves Nest for pleasant stay.

Only good enough for a stay overnight to get early to the airport the next morning.

First impression was very poor as they wanted to accommodate me in a room that barely holds a double bed that really looked liked a outside cheap room. Upon negotiation we were moved to a family room upstairs that was spacious at no extra cost. Can’t elaborate on breakfast as we left at 05:00 to the airport.

Was rustig.

Was dankbaar vir die shuttle service om my man 5 uur die oggend te gaan haal by die lughawe.
