Netjiese en skoon geriewe. Kon lekker uitrus vir die reis verder.

Was net op soek na 'n skoon bed en 'n warm stort - alles bymekaar.

Rustig.

Ons het lekker gekuier. Muskiete het ons net opgevreet. Geen gaas voor die deur nie. Kamers ongelooflik warm. 'n Waaier kan help. Bed baie hard. Kliëntediens was puik. Ons het laat daar aangekom en hulle was bereid om vir ons kos te maak en na ons kamer toe te bring. Baie dankie daarvoor.

Restful.

We had a nice time. Mosquitoes just ate us up. No mesh in front of the door. Rooms incredibly warm. A fan can help. Bed very hard. Customer service was great. We got there late and they were willing to make us food and bring it to our room. Thank you very much for that.

Bed is ongelooflik hard. Kamer baie klein. Geen krag tot sononder. Geen spieël in kamer of n rak of tafeltjie nie. Gras was lank en nog nie gesny nie. Was ook ongelooflik warm. 'n Waaier kan baie help in die kamers. Badkamers was mooi skoon en genoeg warm water. Sal weer daar bly.

Was ok.

Bed is incredibly hard. Room very small. No power until sunset. No mirror in the room or a shelf or table. Grass was long and not yet cut. Was also incredibly hot. A fan can help a lot in the rooms. Bathrooms were nice and clean and plenty of hot water. Will stay there again.

Oornagplek op pad Botswana toe.

Kamers was netjies en skoon. WiFi nie gewerk in kamer nie. Kos en diens in restaurant het teleurgestel, was aansienlik beter in die verlede.

Veilig, rustig, skoon.

Na 'n baie lang en nat pad deur Botswana, kon ons by 'n netjiese vulstasie reg langs East Gate met brandstof hervul. Ons was vriendelik ontvang by East Gate Rest Camp en na ons eenheid verwys. Die fasiliteit is skoon, veilig, en rustig. Daar was ook 'n nagwag aan diens. Hoewel die restaurant tot 21:00 oop was, het ons verkies om ons eie kos te geniet. Die resensies wat ek vooraf gelees het, het gekla oor musiek by 'n nabye kroeg en die geraas van die trokke in die nag. Hoewel beide soms hoorbaar was, was dit nie indringend nie en het ons geensins deur die nag gepla nie, en ek slaap altyd lig op 'n nuwe plek.

Safe, quiet, clean.

After a very long and wet road through Botswana, we were able to refuel at a neat gas station right next to East Gate. We were kindly received at East Gate Rest Camp and directed to our unit. The facility is clean, safe, and quiet. There was also a night guard on duty. Although the restaurant was open until 21:00, we chose to enjoy our own food. The reviews I read beforehand complained about music from a nearby bar and the noise of the trucks at night. Although both were audible at times, it wasn't intrusive and didn't bother us at all through the night, and I always sleep light in a new place.

Nie 'n lekker plek om te bly.

Plek is vuil. Die plek se mure is vol bloedspatsels soos hul die goggas doodslaan. Die stoele op die stoep is vol spinnekoppe. Die swembad is vuil so jy kan nie eers bietjie afkoel en die goggas dra jou weg in die aand.

Not a nice place to stay.

Place is dirty. The place's walls are full of blood splashes as they kill the bugs. The chairs on the porch are full of spiders. The pool is dirty so you can't even cool down a bit and the bugs carry you away in the evening.

Perfek vir oorslaap voor jy deur die grens gaan en die langpad aanvat.

Geraas van die lorries deurnag, die grense is seker heelnag oop. Harde musiek tot vroegoggend, klein informele nedersetting naby aan die kamp. Eetplek kan hoog aanbeveel word.

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

Perfect for a stopover before you cross the border and take on the long road.

Noise from the lorries all night, the borders are probably open all night. Loud music until early morning, small informal settlement close to the camp. Eating place can be highly recommended.
