Moenie in Flamboyant Guesthouse verblyf bespreek gedurende die somer nie.

Flamboyant Guesthouse was 'n baie netjiese plek om te oornag. Een gaste kry gratis WiFi. Ongelukkig is dit basies die enigste positiewe punte wat ek kan deel, maar dit weeg nie op teen die negatiewe nie. Ja, daar is televisie, maar jy kan basies slegs SABC-kanale kyk. Geleë in Warmbad beteken dat die somertemperature bedags hoër as 30 grade Celsius word. Pleks dat daar lugversorging is, was daar slegs 'n waaier in die kamer waarin ons tuisgegaan het. Wat dit nog erger maak, is die feit dat daar geen elektriese bystand is wanneer daar beurtkrag is nie. Dus bly die temperatuur in die kamer hoog, selfs in die nag, wat beteken dat ons nie veel slaap ingekry het weens die hitte nie. Ek het ook 'n persoonlike rede wat ek nie bereid is om te deel nie.

Do not book accommodation in Flamboyant Guesthouse during the summer.

Flamboyant Guesthouse was a very neat place to spend the night. One guest gets free WiFi. Unfortunately, these are basically the only positives I can share, but they don't outweigh the negatives. Yes, there is television, but you can basically only watch SABC channels. Located in Warmbad means that the summer temperatures rise above 30 degrees Celsius during the day. Instead of air conditioning, there was only a fan in the room we stayed in. What makes it even worse is the fact that there is no electrical assistance when there is load shedding. So the temperature in the room remains high, even at night, which means we didn't get much sleep because of the heat. I also have a personal reason that I am not willing to share.

Ons vra om verskoning vir die ongerief, kamers is fumigated, dreine plunged en met groot opgewondenheid kan ons noem dat ons binne die volgende 2 weke ons parkering vergroot sal he. Dis belangrik om enige ongerief onder die aandag van manager aan diens, te bring sodat onmiddellik opgetree kan word.

We enjoyed staying at the self-catering annex the most. Because I was sleeping there, we liked it, and the guesthouse itself was so nice and beautiful, we enjoyed staying there.

Die kamer bied nie privaatheid nie.

Die kamer se deur wys reg op die ander kamers uit en die venster wys reg op die parkeer ruimtes uit wat dus geen privaatheid bied nie. Die muurprop vir ketel werk nie en die stort se uitlaat is verstop.

The room does not offer privacy.

The room's door faces right onto the other rooms and the window faces right onto the parking spaces, which therefore offers no privacy. The wall plug for the boiler does not work and the shower outlet is blocked.

Not good.

Whilst the unit was clean, the room did not meet the expectation created by the advertised photos- it was tucked away in a corner and very dark. The units are all closely spaced with communal social areas right outside your room door. These areas are available to all guests to use so you have very little privacy and it is also very noisy. On the night I spent at Flamboyant, other patrons of the guesthouse utilised the available communal benches and sat out drinking till well past midnight. While they were not excessively noisy, it is literally a meter outside the room door so one could hear every sound made.

Dear Samantha,
Sorry to hear about your disappointment.
All the dark areas at our guesthouse have sensor lights. You were informed by my manager that should there be anything, to bring it to her attention.
Yes, we have some communal areas, but none are a meter from the rooms.

Put a roof over our head

I travel a lot at home and abroad with my sport and have used all types of accommodation, and I have had very few negative things about my different accommodation, but this weekend was different for me, I booked a place for 5 adults, I had to when my brother's 2 children took along 5 and 6 years old, I called Flamboyant to find out if it would be possible, to which they said absolutely right they would put 2 mattresses in I also offered to take an inflatable mattress with them to which they said is that right, on arrival I am asked for an extra R1000 for the 2 children, this to sleep on mattresses on the floor, which makes my bill for the weekend R4400 for 2 nights, it's in a one bedroom cottage with 3 single beds the front door and one room with a double bed, I'm not complaining about the accommodation at all, because it's just a place for us to sleep, but for that amount, especially for 2 small children, I've certainly stayed in 3-4 star hotels

Baie ongemaklike situasie met al die geraas van ander en vuil gesamentlike kombuis.

Regtig nie plek om rustigheid te kry, baie snaaks ook dat R30 moet betaal word om gas te gebruik vir braai? Die liggie bokant bed se skakelaar is te hoog, en ook die muurprop langs die bed skakelaar, nie naby spieël of kassie, gewoonlik is drade baie kort.

Really no place to find peace, very funny also that R30 has to be paid to use gas for braai? The light above the bed's switch is too high, and also the wall plug next to the bed's switch, not near mirror or cabinet, usually wires are very short.

'n voorstel was gemaak om u oor te skuif na oorkant gedeelte van Gastehuis en dit was van die hand gewys. Daar is geen kombuis nie maar wel 'n ontspannings vertrek.
Soos die kennisgewingsbordjie aandui, is die R 30.00 vir die gebruik van die baie gerieflike gasbraai fasiliteit en die gaskostes.

In die inligtingsbrosjure word verduidelik dat die gastehuis oorspronklik gebou was as 'n hospice en die eienskappe van die hospice is bewaar om die karakter te behou.
Jammer dat u dit ongerieflik gevind het.
