Ons kon gemaklik vir ons seun gaan kuier wat naby bly.

Ons kon gemaklik vir ons seun gaan kuier wat naby bly. Ons het Ubur gebruik om heen en weer te ry omdat ons 'n paar drankies wou doen en nie wou drink en bestuur. Die bestuur van the accommodation het vir ons ons verblyf vroeg oorhandig, wat 'n pluspunt was. Ons wou so gou as moontlik by ons seun uitkom. Voertuig was veilig binne geparkeer. Die personeel was baie professioneel en vriendelik.

We could comfortably visit our son who lives nearby.

We could comfortably visit our son who lives nearby. We used Ubur to drive back and forth because we wanted to do a few drinks and not drink and drive. The management of the accommodation handed us our accommodation early, which was a plus. We wanted to get to our son as soon as possible. Vehicle was safely parked inside. The staff was very professional and friendly.

Perhaps they could have a look into their water system. It could be a bit tricky. Loved my stay. We were really happy with the accommodation and the service.

Fantasties.

Ek wil uit my hart uit dankie sê vir die kombuis staff, hulle het hul self oortref. Ons het ontbyt voor oopmaak tyd gesoek weens 'n kompetisie wat vroeg begin het en hulle het seker gemaak ons ontbyt was in tyd. Kamers mooi en netjies. Sal enige tyd die gastehuis aanbeveel.

Alles wat 'n mens in verblyf soek. Percy en Sonja was uiters verwelkomend en die ontbyt was top gehalte. Al die geriewe (slaapplek, badkamer, televisie, ens.) is van die hoogste gehalte. Sal beslis weer 'n draai maak as ek myself weer in die Wesrand bevind.

Vriendelike ontvangs en kamers baie skoon en netjies.

Was vriendelik ontvang in my huistaal. Verblyf baie netjies en skoon. Het ook gehou van die idee dat jy jou eie sleutel het wanneer laat inkom in die aand. Dit is dan nie nodig om iemand wakker te maak om in te gaan nie. Baie veilig.

Netjies en skoon.

Ongelukkig was daar probleme met die elektrisiteit en met die generator wat dit moeilik gemaak het. Ons het die gastehuis gebruik omdat ideaal geleë is vir die 40ste verjaardag wat ons bygewoon het. Ons kon nie ons haardroërs gebruik die aand voor ons uitgegaan het nie. Die volgende oggend was daar ook geen krag nie. Die kamers was baie mooi en skoon en baie gerieflik. Net jammer oor die elektrisiteit.

Neat and clean.

Unfortunately they had problems with the electricity and it was difficult with the generator. We booked at this guesthouse because of its ideal location for a birthday party they attended. We couldn't use the hairdryers that evening before leaving for the party. The next morning we didn't have any electricity. The rooms were lovely, clean and convenient. Just a pitty about the electricity.

Vanilla Guesthouse 's response

Dankie dat julle gebruik gemaak het van Vanilla Gastehuis. Ons is verskriklik jammer oor die ongerief, ongelukkig was daar 'n kragonderbreking in die hele area, 10 uitbreidings, wat 36 uur geduur het. Ons kan nou met sekerheid sê dat die nuwe kragopwekker nie weer dieselfde probleem sal skep nie. Ons hoop om julle gou weer te sien.
