Very friendly staff and the food in the restaurant is good value for money.

Enjoyed the soaps and vanity kit in the bathroom. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. The pillows on the bed were of very high quality.

Het dit terdeë geniet.

Regtig goeie verblyf, plus 'n uitstekende restaurant, wat die verblyf nog soveel meer rustig, moeitevry en aangenaam gemaak het.

Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Really good accommodation, plus an excellent restaurant, which made the stay that much more peaceful, hassle-free and enjoyable.

Nie gastvry, nie Wifi, (baie sleg), etes is prima, sanitêre gerief primitief, stortkamer klein.

Door loadshedding nie lig in die kamer om 16 uur, donker, samenvattend: grote teleurstelling!

Nie 'n 4-ster plek nie.

Personeel baie behulpsaam en vriendelik. Ontbyt lekker. Bed gerieflik. Ons kom baie in Ermelo en dis die eerste plek wat ons kokkerotte sien, dus nie baie skoon nie. Die plek ruik ook nie lekker nie. Beslis nie 4-ster status nie.

Not a 4 star place.

Staff very helpful and friendly. Have a nice breakfast. Bed comfortable. We come to Ermelo a lot and it's the first place we see cockroaches, so not very clean. The place doesn't smell good either. Definitely not 4 star status.

Heel aangenaam.

In sekere opsigte, soos bv. die restaurant, 'n aangename verassing. Andersins nie presies wat veral die hoof-foto en beskrywing van fasiliteit te kenne gee nie.

Very pleasant.

In some respects, such as the restaurant, a pleasant surprise. Otherwise not exactly what the main photo and description of facility in particular suggests.

Baie verbaas oor die plekkie en hoe groot hulle kamers is vir die prys wat ons betaal het.

Baie lekker plekkie. Goeie waarde vir geld. Sal weer teruggaan as ek in die omgewing is. Enigste ding wat ek wel oor kan kla is dat die ingang by die agterste hek baie skerp is en hulle sal dit moet reg maak. My kar het gekrap onder toe ek uit ry.

Very surprised by the place and how big their rooms are for the price we paid.

Very nice place. Good value for money. Will go back again if I'm in the area. Only thing I can complain about is that the entrance at the back gate is very sharp and they need to fix that. My car scratched the bottom when I drove out.

Utterly disappointed.

Our first apartment was inadequate and dirty, with missing kitchen equipment, once reported, known by the housekeeping staff. We were moved to another unit with old and worn appliances.

Waarde vir geld.

Ek sal dit vir seker voorstel aan ander, al negatief is daar is nie 'n yskas in die kamers nie. Dit is wel baie raserig met die vragmotors wat deurnag verby die lodge ry.

I would definitely recommend it to others, although the negative is that there is no fridge in the rooms. It is very noisy with the trucks driving past the lodge throughout the night.

Middelmatig.

Met ons aankoms helder oordag was daar niemand by ontvangs nie. Die karwag wat ons "ontvang" het kon na 40 minute se gesukkel vir ons 'n sleutel gee. Nie eers so veel as 'n waaier in die kamer nie, wat nog van lugreëling. Die persoon wat die plek 'n 4 ster gradering gegee het moet sy kop laat lees. Drankpryse is beslis beïnvloed deur die 4 sterre, belaglik duur! Met ons vertrek was ontvangs weereens gesluit, gelukkig was daar mense by die restaurant besig vir wie ek die sleutels kon terug gee.

Mediocre.

When we arrived in broad daylight, there was no one at reception. The car guard who "received" us was able to give us a key after 40 minutes of struggle. Not even so much as a fan in the room, let alone air conditioning. The person who gave the place a 4 star rating needs to get their head read. Drink prices were definitely influenced by the 4 stars, ridiculously expensive! When we left reception was closed again, luckily there were people busy at the restaurant to whom I could return the keys.

Good for overnight stay.

The restaurant's dinner was really very nice. Would eat there again anytime. Is just on the expensive side. Room was a bit noisy due to workers who spoke very loudly. Bathroom light did not work. Overall was average stay. Room and bedding were nice and clean.

Was in 'n woonstelletjie, bietjie ver om te loop van ontvangs af. Maar daarna naby geparkeer.

Oulik en skoon, sal weer daar oorbly. Ek sou net graag wil hê, dat as julle volgens die bespreking gaan en sien dat daar meer as een persoon is, julle seker maak dat daar genoeg handdoeke ens. is. Baie dankie.

The apartment was a bit far to walk from reception, but parked close by.

Cute and clean, will go back. Please just note the number of guests and make sure there are enough towels, etc if there are more than one guest. Thank you.

Ons het welkom en veilig gevoel na 'n lang reis.

Om na 'n lang dag op die pad by 'n plek te kom wat jou welkom en veilig laat voel was baie gerustellend. Ons was beïndruk met die netjies en skoon verblyf. Ons het nie van die restaurant of ontbyt gebruik gemaak nie, want ons was by 'n troue en het saam met die familie gekuier. Ons sal beslis weer in die toekoms hier wil oornag.

We felt welcome and safe after a long journey.

After a long day on the road, arriving at a place that made you feel welcome and safe was very reassuring. We were impressed with the neat and clean accommodation. We didn't use the restaurant or breakfast because we were at a wedding and visiting with family. We will definitely want to stay here again in the future.

Ek sou Izimbali aanbeveel!

Izimbali was vir ons pragtig, die decor in die eetkamer is lieflik en die beddegoed en kamer kraakskoon. Die lawaai van die trokke wat verbyry pla egter baie!

Izimbali was beautiful to us, the decor in the dining room is lovely and the bedding and room spotless. However, the noise from the trucks passing by is very annoying!
