Tuisgegaan vir 2 nagte, 2 kamers, self-catering.

Baie goed ontvang. Rustige area. Netjies, behalwe torn blinds en mildew op plafon, andersins tevrede.

Heeltemal aanvaarbaar.

Die gaste huis is baie netjies en die ontvangs was baie goed. Dit is egter geleë in 'n deel van die dorp wat nie so aanvaarbaar is nie en jy moet deur 'n deel van die dorp ry wat ek normaalweg eerder sal vermy.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Totally acceptable.

The guest house is very neat and the reception was very good. However, it is located in a part of town that is not so acceptable and you have to drive through a part of town that I would normally rather avoid.

Nou gaan ons braai!

Baie dankie aan Daan vir lekker braai en ete was net die beste gewees na al die "stop and go" op die pad en al die reën, sien julle weer volgende jaar vir my oorslaap oppad Buffalo Rally toe.

Hi Albert
Man, jy het nou sommer my voete onder my uitgeslaan met jou pragtige verwysing.
Dit is absoluut 'n riem onder die hart, om so 'n mooi verwysing te kry.
Ons is bly julle het lekker hier gekuier en ons hoop volgende keer sal dit net beter wees.
Bo dit als, het ons jul geselskap so geniet en sal altyd die mooi herinneringe van ons braai saam met julle onthou. Wat 'n ervaring.
Ons sien uit daarna om julle weer te sien, en onthou 'n braai is die beste ding om lekker saam te kuier.
Tot volgende keer.
Sterkte

Goeiedag Michael,

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoering rakende Intaka Guest House.

Dit is altyd lekker om opbouende kommentaar oor ons plek te kry.
Ons stem absoluut saam met jou, lugreëling is 'n noodsaaklikheid in ons kontrei.
Maar, ons is nou maar eers 2 jaar aan die gang en bou maar nog aan Intaka om dit een van die beste gastehuise te maak in King Williams Town.
Ons het dit op ons lys om net meer en meer te verbeter en ons sal nie ophou tot ons die perfekte gastehuis het waar gaste gemaklik en lekker kan kuier nie.
Lugversorging is op ons lys, maar ongelukkig 'n laer prioriteit aangesien ons eers 'n paar badkamers vir 2 van ons kamers moet bou.

Ons glo en is vas oortuig dat indien jy ons weer besoek jy 'n paar veranderinge hier by Intaka sal sien.
'n Mooi en geseënde dag vir julle, en ons hoop om julle weer hier by Intaka te sien.

Daan Henning.

Baie teleurgesteld.

Besef ons twee kamers moes 'n badkamer deel, maar as jy dan deur 'n sitkamer met mense wat TV kyk moet loop is dit onaanvaarbaar. Ook maak die badkamervensters oop in 'n vertrek waar mense sit en eet/braai. Geen tafels of bedlampies in kamer nie. Personeel lê op bank in sitkamer en tv kyk.

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

Very disappointed.

Realize our two rooms had to share a bathroom, but when you have to walk through a living room with people watching TV it's unacceptable. Also, the bathroom windows open into a room where people sit and eat/barbeque. No tables or bedside lamps in room. Staff lying on sofa in living room watching TV.

Dagse Tinus,

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoering. Ons waardeer dit opreg. Ons is regtig jammer om te verneem dat julle teleurgesteld is in die kamer en badkamer opset.
Ons besef die ongemaklikheid daarvan, en is reeds besig om planne te beraam om en-suite badkamers vir die 2 kamers te laat aanbou. Juis daarom is hierdie kamers beskikbaar teen 'n spesiale tarief tot die nuwe badkamers klaar is.
Ons is so te se klaar met ons waskamer projek en dan sal ons begin met die badkamers.

Intaka gaste huis is nog in sy groeipyn fase, maar ons is vas oortuig dat vanaf ons inset April 2016 tot nou toe groot verbetering al gedoen is deur genade van bo.
So glo ons ook dat jul volgende besoek net n beter en aangenamer ondervinding sal wees.

n Mooi en geseende dag vir julle.
Daan

Vir 'n week was ek in 'n gastehuis wat soos "huis" gevoel het!

Dit was skoon, netjies, veilig, en privaat o.l.v. 'n gawe gasheer!

Outstanding hospitality.

Although the hospitality is some of the best I have ever experienced, there are some flaws in the accommodation. The toilet was leaking and the whole floor was wet. The TV is not working properly. The taps in the kitchen are constantly dripping. The room was very neat. Breakfast was good. Security was good.

Great place to overnight, driving between the Western Cape and KZN.

While I've no complaints at all about anywhere I've booked through LekkeSlaap, what put my stay at Intaka Guest House right at the top of my personal satisfaction list was the proprietor, Daan - the most accommodating host I've encountered to date. Daan takes a genuine interest in his guests and goes the extra mile to help them meet their individual needs and interests. He is also very knowledgeable about the unique character and history of KWT within the context of ZA over the past 30 years, and a congenial and convivial conversation with this insightful man is an opportunity not to be missed.
