A warm welcome and lovely supper by Marietjie.

It is a pleasant guest house, with a lovely garden and clean rooms. Both Martietjie and her husband show great hospitality. We enjoyed our stay.

Ordentlik.

This is not fancy accommodation, but it is 'ordentlik'. The rooms are clean and serviced daily. There is air-con, which is an absolute God-send in this area. The WiFi is not too strong and could do with some improving. Nonetheless, Marietjie's Place is as good as one is going to get in Ulundi. Extra points for the cleaner that spontaneously did my washing - I really appreciated it!

Heerlike blyplek wat skoon en veilig is.

Die gastehuis is baie netjies en skoon. Jy het alles wat jy nodig het om gemaklik te bly in 'n B&B. Ons het tot beskuit in die kamer gekry wat baie lekker was! Die mense is almal baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die aircon in die kamer is 'n groot positief met die erge hitte van die area. Wat die blyplek wel dit so bietjie gemakliker kan maak is om voldoende kragpunte te voorsien. Jy moet die yskas uitplug om die ketel te gebruik en dan onthou om dit weer terug te sit. Dit sal ook gemaklik wees as daar 'n kragpunt by die bed is om jou foon te laai en dalk 'n bedliggie ook want jy moet opstaan om die kamer lig af te sit en dan is dit donker in die kamer.

Lovely place to stay that is clean and safe.

The guest house is very neat and clean. You have everything you need to stay comfortably in a B&B. We got toast in the room which was very nice! The people are all very friendly and helpful. The aircon in the room is a big positive with the severe heat of the area. What the accommodation can do to make it a little more comfortable is to provide sufficient power points. You have to unplug the fridge to use the kettle and then remember to plug it back in. It would also be comfortable if there is a power point by the bed to charge your phone and maybe a bedside light too because you have to get up to turn off the room light and then it's dark in the room.

Not my style

Room very cramped, ceiling rail leaking bad water, blanket on bed with stains, empty ice cream bowl under leaking toilet pipe. R600 for the night, a bit bad!

Kon nie slaap nie a.g.v. pype en geisers wat raas.

Hennie en Marietjie was baie gasvry en die kamers was mooi skoon en netjies. Maar a.g.v. die geisers en pype wat so geraas het elke 30 min kon ons glad nie slaap nie.

Couldn't sleep because pipes and roaring geysers.

Hennie and Marietjie were very hospitable and the rooms were nice and clean. But because the geysers and pipes making so much noise every 30 minutes we couldn't sleep at all.

Good morning, I would like to comment as follows on the comments made by the two guests. Not only in Ulundi is a very critical water shortage but the whole of South Africa has the same problem. The noise that they heard was not due to geyser but indirectly as a result of the drought we have. We to travel some distance to get water [as the town has no water] daily which we pump into a 4500 liter tank. To get the water out we use a pressure pump which was about 25 metres from their room. Each time someone opens a tap or flushes a toilet the pump starts to replace the pressure in the pump that was released. To be honest this was the first complaint we have had in this regard since the drought started six to eight months ago. Once it rains ample this problem will not occur again.
As for the location one must remember that Ulundi is one of the "old" location types of towns. The whole looks the same except for the new shopping centres that have been built.
Security wise I wish to say that we have not had thefts of whatsoever nature.We do not need a security guard as we have fully electrified the total perimeter of the premises as a measure to keep possible entrance and nuisances outside our premises. The total front a side has a 2000m high wall with the electric fence on top. We regret it that they have not enjoyed their stay but also feel that they could have discussed the matter with us before leaving.
Kind regards.
Marietjie Jooste.
