Netjie en skoon. Stil en rustig.

Pragtige ou huis met oorspronkelike vloere en plafon. Die antieke meubels pas pragtig in.

Onaangenaam.

Met aankoms is ons vriendelik ontvang. Binne 5 minute is leviete voorgelê. Aan my volwasse kinders is gesê daar is mense reg langs hulle so hulle moenie laat-aand onnatuurlike geluide maak nie! Ons hondjie wat al 4 jaar oral saam reis en ten volle geleer is het nog nooit ooit binnenshuis vuil gemaak nie. Oggend na aankoms word ons nie eens gegroet nie en ongeskik ingelig dat ons hond met ons aankoms in hul persoonlike kamer vuil gemaak het, al was hy heeltyd onder ons toesig. Die kamers sluit nie. Die TV het nie eens plugs aan nie. Die huis en inhoud is stokoud en scary as hell! Die beskuit by die ketel in 'n plastiekhouer is ouer as ek. Geen WiFi. Gaste het ingekom en na hul die kamers gesien het dadelik gery. Jammer, die plekkie is geensins waardig vir gaste nie.

Unpleasant.

Upon arrival we were kindly received. Within 5 minutes, levites were presented. My grown children were told there were people right next to them so they shouldn't make unnatural noises late at night! Our puppy who has been traveling everywhere with us for 4 years and is fully trained has never soiled indoors. The morning after arrival we are not even greeted and ineptly informed that our dog defecated in their personal room upon our arrival, even though he was under our supervision the whole time. The rooms do not lock. The TV doesn't even have plugs on. The house and contents are very old and scary as hell! The rusk by the kettle in a plastic container is older than me. No Wi-Fi. Guests entered and after they saw the rooms drove immediately. Sorry, the place is in no way worthy of guests.

Very quiet and room was very clean.

There was no problem with the room very clean and tidy only the room door could not be locked from the outside but the owner does not see a problem with it so when you go out you cannot lock your room door. The owner feels I have to trust people if he wants to run a place like this because if you go in or out he runs out of his place to check on you and not all the people like it and then he also has to upgrade his website Gunners mess no more where he says you can enjoy a breakfast.

Friendly hosts, beautiful rooms and not too far from the beach.

We enjoyed our stay at Gunner's. The owners were friendly, accommodating and even went the extra mile in offering us adjoining rooms. The rooms were neat and tidy. The reception was pleasant and the sleep was peaceful.

Ek het slegs oornag om 'n funksie by te woon en dit was perfek daarvoor. Gunner's Lodge kan oorweeg om 2-punt plugs in te sit.

Very cold and disappointing.

We have stayed at Gunner's on two other occasions. On both occasions booking two rooms. We have occupied all four rooms. I booked the Red room, it was cosy and a double bed. On arrival I was given the Blue room: an ice box, with two single beds. The owner dismissed my complaint, and said that it is all they have. Really? Needless to say, we will book other accommodation when next in Napier.

Baie rustig!

Ons het die blou kamer met 2 enkelbeddens bespreek maar 'n kamer met 'n dubbelbed gekry. Het vooraf gereël dat ons laat sou inkom na 'n aand uit, maar met terugkeer was alles gesluit en moes ons die eienaar pla om deure te kom oopsluit. Verder was dit 'n baie goeie oornag-ervaring en sal dit aanbeveel!

Very quiet!

We booked the blue room with 2 single beds but got a room with a double bed. Arranged in advance that we would come in late after a night out, but on return everything was closed and we had to pester the owner to come and unlock doors. Other than that it was a very good overnight experience and would recommend!

Very basic and cold, so a heater would have helped .

Gunner's Lodge was selected as it was listed as a B&B which it is not. That was my fault for not reading the fine print. The room was clean but very basic and it was very cold. A heater would have helped. There was a hot water bottle but the kettle was a miniature one that took ages to boil and needed three fills to fill the hot water bottle. The best part was the shower. It worked well. I would not consider it good value for money.
