243 guests' feedbackVery comfortable and quiet.
It is always nice to stay there when you travel to Cape Town and it is close to the.
It was awesome. I would use them again.
Yes, it was nice and the people there were very nice.
Yes, thank you, it was nice.
Always a privilege to sleep somewhere through LekkeSlaap.
Everything was great. Many thanks to everyone.
All was good except the room didn't have coffee and tea as expected. We left before 5am and were not going to go to reception to start asking for some.
Very nice and friendly service.
DStv is controlled from elsewhere. The bathroom door rattles and struggles to open and close. Unit X2.
Very nice and clean. Will stay there again.
Nice place to stop over if you traveling to Western or Eastern Cape.
Good location near main road.
We had a nice stay. The aircon just made terrible noise and no one can sleep like that, and the pool was dirty. Other than that no problems. The place was neat and clean.
The unit we got on January 2, 2024 had an air conditioner that worked, the TV and the remote were from 2 different manufacturers/brands, otherwise it was fine.
Was what I needed for the night. Very small shower.
Only plus point was that we could check in before 2pm, apart from the fact that the reception was very cold. The air conditioner was not in 100% working condition. The shower was very dirty, we didn't even use it at all. The bathroom door hangs crooked and can't even close. Ants almost carried us away. Sink taps didn't work well either. Very noisy. Needs a lot of maintenance. Places can be made beautiful with little effort.
No, not at all. Place was full of ants and have to go and ask for poison. Security gate was open and keys in a man in front of the office door.
The stay was incredibly nice and would definitely recommend the place.
A hairdryer in the room would have been welcome. I also think plates and cutlery would help. There is a fridge but we couldn't prepare food even if there was a microwave.
Exactly what a traveler needs on the long road.
Everyone was very friendly and the room was neat and clean. There is everything you need for a day or two's sleepover. It just needs some grass and it would be great if there was an area that was closed, so the dogs could walk around.
Perfect stop over on the drive home from the Cape. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Super friendly staff!
Slept like a baby, clean and location perfect.
Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Our toilet just kept leaking water, but otherwise everything was perfect.
Perfect for overnight stay after destination.
Very neat place, friendly people who welcome and help you. Nice place for overnight. Service is really good, everyone helps immediately.
Everything was very nice. Only the beds are very hard. Furthermore, a very pleasant place to spend the night.
It is a very neat place and the bed and bedding are very comfortable and clean.
It's always nice to stay at Gables Inn. But please look at the pool, because with children in the heat they couldn't go and cool off in the pool. The water was grass green and the air conditioner did not work in the room. We had to go get a fan just to cool off.
Nice overnight place, comfortable, conveniently located and safe.
We had a wonderful stay.
See stars.
We just stayed the night and were satisfied. We got there after 10 in the evening and were helped immediately.
There was just a little too much noise that disturbed my sleep, but otherwise it was ok.
Clean and functional.
There were extremely drunk and rude people on the premises, I called reception and complained as did other guests. They came to talk to the people and got the situation under control. We were pleased with how it was handled.
On arrival we were warmly received, but our room (V1) was not yet ready for us. They were still busy. When we entered the room, the aircon was out of order. I went to report it. The lady at reception simply said that the aircons were only serviced last week. I highly doubt it. Then they just gave us a fan. I immediately told the lady that the aircon please. must be in working condition when we go to spend the night there again on January 3, 2024. I would like to know why our stay for the 3rd is more than 13th December?
Bring your own pillows they are brick hard. Please stipulate rooms in (low budget) and (better budget) rooms!
The room needs some renovation work and the shower was not clean. The aircon did not work. The bed was comfortable and clean. The swimming pool had been a nice cool down.
The reception could use some effort to receive clients better, but otherwise it was a nice place to stay.
Reception was cold and inept. Room was not ready at check-in time.
Was very small, no space to move, maybe for only 2 people. The toilet was leaking, no space to make coffee, only on fridge and he was moving all the time, was not a nice place to sleep at all.
Air cooler did not work. Toilet keeps leaking water. By hacking continuously due to wind. No decent chairs. Pool dirty. Would not recommend.
We were in M2. The mattress is a piece of wood and could not sleep. The shower was leaking water and the floor was full of water and slippery. I have complained to management about this and am still waiting for feedback.
We overslept and for that purpose it was perfect.
Place was clean and tidy.
Very comfortable and ideal for an overnight stay.
Ons bly daar oor elke keer wanneer ons reis.
Very calm. Near shopping place. Easily accessible from N1.
The Shower in X1 is too close to the toilet. If you weigh more than 75kg you will find it difficult to shower. The toilet runs all the time.
The facilities were adequate for the stayover, however the pool was not swimmable. Everything else was as expected for a short stayover to rest up for the next half of the drive.
Toilet was not very clean on arrival.
Unit was clean and tidy. Could do with a bench and trash can in the bathroom. Kettle did not work and there was no water, coffee or milk in the room.
Difficult to sleep with noise from air conditioning.
Coffee, no kettle. Pot and pan, no oven or plate. TV extremely weak signal, no remote control. All the beds have plastic under the fitted sheets, so no one sleeps well, it makes noise if you just take a deep breath. Hot water in bath (no shower) runs extremely slowly, and had to wash out bath before use.
Bedding was very dirty and bedside lamp was broken. My husband passed it on to them with no objection regarding the findings. Spiders everywhere in room and was definitely not cleaned. One single bed's leg was broken and was placed on a brick. Had to upgrade to luxury room (fortunately 1 and last one was available) otherwise we would have gone looking for other accommodation.
Second time using Gables Inn. Brought extra gas on No. 99. They had no problem and were able to upgrade us to a 5 sleeper with an hour before we arrived. Effort has been made and it is appreciated.
Well located. Worth it. Close to shops.
Will sleep there again. Very satisfied.
Gables Inn is friendly, organized and very clean. What we needed to rest on the way to the Cape.
Was a stopover on the way to the coast.
Very centrally located and everything you need for a night's sleep.
Enjoyed the stay. The staff was very helpful. Very clean and met all requirements.
Just sleeping over one night was enough for that.
Stayed overnight at Gables Inn. Would recommend the place.
Good central accommodation. Hiccup here and there, but the place is fine.
Quiet, tidy and very good service.
Well located and value for money. While clean, there were little niceties missing. However, very comfortable for one night's sleepover while en route to destination.
Neat, quiet, close to restaurants and very easy to get to.
Was disappointed to get to Gables Inn (in pouring rain, at 19:30), to find out my booking through LekkeSlaap was not on their system. Not sure who was a fault, but Gables Inn were kind enough to offer a 4-bed unit and also accept that my payment confirmation (through LekkeSlaap) was genuine. Had it been a busy holiday time, like before COVID, then I might have arrived to a venue with no space.
Please may you tile the room, carpets are extremely unhygienic. The toilet in our unit was not level and felt like you were going to fall off it!
We had to go and buy things to grill because we couldn't buy ready-made things to just heat up. There are also no plates, knives or forks.
Perfect place for overnight stay.
Neatly clean, just what is needed for an overnight stay in the Cape.
Bathroom needs attention.
Second time we sleep there and definitely will again.
The bed was unfortunately not comfortable and very noisy.
For three or 4 people it is quite a problem without a small kitchen. Bed 2 and 3 have no lights.
Receptionist couldn't do anything. No technician available. Was disappointed and inconvenient without air conditioner. An auxiliary heater would have been quite welcome.
The TV didn't work and couldn't charge our phones either because the plug tripped when we wanted to plug it in. Bed very comfortable and warm.
Colesberg needs a few more upmarket accommodations.
The room has everything needed for a quick stay. The service is good and the people are friendly.
I would recommend Gables Inn anytime for a great night's rest and friendly service.
Just overslept to continue.
Will definitely stay there again.
Safe, peaceful and quiet environment. Will definitely stay there again!
Many thanks to Gables Inn - we were a group of 48 and had a comfortable stay. Rooms were neat and clean - staff were friendly and very helpful and our hostess Maureen made sure everything was great! Thank you very much for all the effort and hard work!
We had 2 vehicles with trailers and we could sleep with peace of mind. Security is great. The lady at the reception extremely nice. Perfect overnight spot.
Will definitely stay over at Gables Inn again.
Air conditioning just didn't work properly, otherwise very good facilities.
Just don't have utensils if you want to eat.
Comfortable, neat and the swimming pool is very welcome after a hot day in the car.
Very restful and good location.
Although I arrived very late on the Thursday evening, I was received very kindly. Room was extremely neat and comfortable. Will definitely stay there again.
The ad indicated sleeps 5, but all the beds were in 1 room.
See stars.
The toilet roll does not have a place where it is hung, it is just behind your back on the water tank. Just two bags of coffee and no more tea. It is for evening and morning for 2 persons. Then went to buy coffee myself. However, there are only 2 teaspoons which makes it awkward to keep one dry to scoop out coffee. Had to ask for a table knife to spread bread. Went to buy a bread knife myself. There is no indication anywhere that cutlery is available on request.
Everything needed for overnight rest.
Room below standard. Can improve.
Although I received a sms to remind me of my booking, upon arrival no info of my booking and payment could be found! Not a pleasant experience at all - unprofessional.
Noisy, heavy vehicles pass by all night.
We had a basic room, just the necessities for a stopover.
Conveniently located, easy access to the N1 and other facilities (such as restaurants, shops, services). Basic amenities, yet sufficient for an overnight stay.
Pool was not very clean. The ladies at reception are very nice and professional. We enjoyed our sleepover. Thanks for air conditioning in the rooms!
The best thing about the Gables is the location. Their "luxury" room is anything but luxurious. Bathroom especially the shower needs a serious renovation. The television is apparently "brand new" although it's clearly been around since 1995, has no remote and no channels are viewable. Although the room was cleaned. we did not feel 100% confident that the room was properly sanitized in preparation for Covid so we did our best to do this ourselves before unpacking. Nothing was done "extra" or beyond the usual that made us feel they properly prepared for the pandemic. Things like having plastic over key areas of the room and furniture making sanitizing easier. The toilet also kept on filling for hours. something that can be and should be fixed easily especially with the amount of time between holiday periods and the time the pandemic provided the hospitality industries to prepare facilities. Overall it was okay. Generally when you leave a location and say "it was okay" you will probably visit the place again. but most likely find out if other places are better than okay.
The rooms are neat, and the parking is a bonus.
Can show more movies than the few channels on the TV.
The place was very badly neglected but it could still pass if it wasn't for it being so dirty. There were cobwebs almost everywhere and the bathroom was in an absolutely terrible state. We weren't surprised when we found half-sucked candy on the furniture. Definitely will not stay there again. Would rather sleep in the car.
Friendly book in. Room smelt of old cigarette smoke. Old air con, very noisy. Snowy old TV. No plug in basin.
The floors, sink and bathroom were full of dust and dirt. There was also no WiFi or DStv and no dishwashing liquid like in many other places. Was very primitive, definitely not for family maybe only for bikers and single people.
Some upgrading is necessary, especially the pool and safety.
There were 3 requirements. One was aircon - it was one of those old built-in box aircon that was incredibly noisy and didn't work very well. Two were pet friendly - yes they are, but then rooms should at least be fitted with tiles and not carpets. There were many stains and the room smelled. Three was nice bed - the base of the bed sounded like it was falling apart every time you moved, I'm just over 80kg and wife just over 50kg. It was not a very good sleep.
TV remote not working, had to try 3 rooms. Wi-Fi doesn't work.
Receptionist was rude and rooms were filthy.
It was hospitality from start to finish. Thank you very much.
Friendly staff, safe and secure area. The facilities were well maintained.
Very neat, clean, helpful and friendly.
Well located and safe. Will definitely recommend.
I would recommend Gables Inn to others anytime. I forgot my pillow there and called reception. They were very helpful and my son picked it up the next day with name attached. Gables Inn is centrally located and very well appointed. Rooms are neat and clean.
Would like TV to work.
It's a nice place if you drive far and pass through and have to sleep over. The people there are very friendly and helpful. The place is clean and tidy and nicely laid out for an overnight stay.
Have already recommended it to other people.
Had a good overnight stay, they allowed our little doggie on the second overnight stay. If I may make one little complaint, the last room we were in did not have a table where the kettle and mugs could be kept, we had to boil the kettle on the floor, and make the coffee on the tray that was on a small side table.
Affordable and neat.
Pleasant and comfortable accommodation. Combined equipped kitchen creates no problem, clean and comfortable. Well located to visit surrounding places.
Awesome destination when travelling far.
Rooms are big. Bathroom is very small. Because rooms are big and TV very small it is difficult to watch TV. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Very close to the N1 and has everything you need for a comfortable overnight stay.
Accommodation is comfortable, tidy and easy to find.
The room is neat. The electrical accessories are very bundled and the electrical connections border on 'dangerous'. The mattress is quite well laid. The TV didn't work.
The room was just old. Needs a good restoration. Bathroom also very inconvenient.
Although the accommodation is simple, attention can be paid to maintenance. The bathroom does not have a towel rail, there is no toilet paper holder, the curtains hang messy and the table shakes terribly. The bed was slept through. It is very clean and neat.
Basic, clean and quiet.
But other than that we had a very good value for money stay.
Clean, everything you need just for sleeping and driving again. Could def do with a revamp. The furniture, TV and bathrooms are outdated.
Neat place for an overnight stay. Clean and friendly people.
Would recommend if you just want to sleep and continue to your destination. Bedside lamps did not work.
Comfortable, neat accommodation. Affordable. Unfortunately there was no coffee, tea or sugar in the room. On enquiry, I did get coffee, but they had no sugar. So feel that some effort can be made with regard to service.
It would be great to explore Colesberg and the surrounding area.
The accommodation was ideally located close to the N2. The room was neat and comfortable with the necessary goodies for an overnight stay. The covered parking was most welcome.
See stars.
Got a good night's rest.
First of all, there was no hot water, only on inquiry did they turn on the geysers. Second, the air conditioner unit is so old that even turning it on didn't help at all. And to think that one stops precisely to rest and to relax so that one can travel on again. Then the TV also just works and without sound!
Think l will rethink my stay somewhere else, appliances and ratio to plugs do not match, plug in kettle, unplug TV etc. Toiletpaper needs a holder.
Upon inquiring why we did not get an apartment as per our booking, we were told all the apartments have already been taken. Bathroom very small.
Unfortunately, the room was a disappointment. The furniture and bedding were old and washed. The shower head was broken and the window in the shower was completely black with mould. You can see there is no question of maintenance. Very weak!
Only one thin summer duvet per bed while the temperature was -3° C. Toilet seat was loose. Bathroom was untidy. Heater doesn't work at all.
Upon our arrival, my fiancé accidentally went to the wrong unit and unlocked another unit with our key. Our unit was not cleaned because we came across a garment. Was moved to another unit and there was a used bar of soap with paper wrapper in garbage bin.
Na ons sleutel in ontvangs geneem het het my verloofde per ongeluk na verkeerde kamer gegaan en tot ons verbasing het ons sleutel 'n ander kamer wat bespreek en gaste in oopgesluit. In regte kamer was 'n vreemde kledingstuk so dit was nie skoongemaak. Ons toe op aandrang geskuif na ander kamer. Daar was ook 'n oop seep in vullisdrom gekry wat beteken dit was ook nie skoongemaak.
Not neat. Needs attention. Broken floor tiles, worn out furniture. There was a kettle, but no power point for it, so we had to use it while it stood on the floor. There were cups but no tea spoons. Bathroom mat was dirty and wet. Dirty shower door. Tiles and towel rail had paint from when the bathroom was last painted. Third bed's duvet and pillow dirty. The only positive was that the 2 beds we slept in were clean. Not going to book Gables Inn again.
Shower tiles have not been washed in years and feel dirty to shower there at all. Curtains do not fit the size of window and cannot close properly. There was no tea, coffee and had to go and ask repeatedly and provided 2 hours later. No place in bathroom to put down any toiletries, had to use floor.
It was not the best stay. Only 2 towels for 3 people. No plates, pots or cutlery.
Thank you very much very clean and tidy. Would recommend the place and stay there again.
Janka and Gys make you feel like family instead of travelers. Helpful, friendly and ready with advice.
We were happy with the reception and all round surroundings especially after coming on a long drive. Only one negative, the shower door was blocked by the toilet so if one was a large person would have to squeeze in. Very pleased that our dog could also stay!
The place is neat en satisfactory for one night's stay and located close to the highway.
Puppies could also be with us. Big plus.
See the stars.
We just had trouble sleeping because our room door kept making noise.
We were received kindly, room clean and tidy. Parking safe.
Very convenient overnight accommodation for the traveler who just wants to sleep over, but also for someone who wants to visit longer.
Great facility that is spacious clean and well equipped together with staff and management who provide great service. I will definitely visit again.
Available 24 hours.
Overnight en route to Cape Town. Would recommend Gables Inn.
Satisfactory. Had a great sleep over.
Had a nice stay and the children could swim after a long drive.
Will be recommended it to anyone.
See stars.
The sheets had marks on them, there were no fitted sheets, so they were taken off all the time. The "trip switch" kept going off when the 'aircon' was on. The porch light did not work. There were no towels in the unit, although there should have been. To spend one night it is reasonable, but would not recommend.
Friendly reception, made to feel very comfortable, spacious, clean rooms.
Overall good place to stay over.
Beautiful outside. Towels are hard and old. No air-conditioning to combat the 38 degree heat. Beds are good.
It's a very nice place to sleep. Just needs a fan or something, it cools the rooms down in the summer.
The place has a lot of potential, but is not clean and the facilities are cheap and unkempt. The reception is impersonal. The WiFi is not working. No coffee or tea in rooms.
There are better places in Colesburg that are newer and value for money. They could do with an upgrade.
It can get really hot in Colesberg. This accommodation does not have air conditioning. Little short maintenance. Shower door was broken. Bedside lamp was broken. Old bed linen.
I was bitterly unhappy. Will never stay there again nor recommend to anyone. Given other unit's bathroom to use after complaint. Toilet also broken.
Reception was spotty when they were informed the TV was not working. The TV is so small that you can hardly see anything and the volume didn't work either so there was no sound. The air conditioning does not make it cold and it was incredibly hot. The pool was creepy and murky, you couldn't see anything.
This is a horrible, old and dirty place!
It was a nice place to sleep over. Would have liked just a fitted sheet over the mattress and not a regular sheet. It was moving around all the time.
It was fantastic. Staff were helpful.
We got there and everything was ready.
We were travelling back from Eastern Cape to Gauteng and glad that we had stopped as a storm came through that night and we were not on the road, thank goodness. It was neat, hot water available and the beds were comfy. The electricity was knocked out for about 2 hours but it came back on but it didn't impact us at all.
Very nice stay, the room was big enough for our family. Everything was neat and clean. Aircon was a bonus, because it was really hot that day we slept over. Bedding very neat and slept well on beds.
Very neat and friendly service.
Will always stay over there. It was great.
Thank you so much for the peace of mind we got at Gables Inn! Safe environment, quiet, secure parking and good service. Pleasant receptionists! Well done!
We travelled from Pretoria to Mossel Bay. We stayed overnight in Colesberg. We arrived late. Reception was friendly, rooms clean and beds comfortable. Will recommend it to anyone.
We've stayed there 3 times already. 2 out of 3 times it was very pleasant and clean. The third time the chalet's toilet was broken and water was running everywhere. It was also very cold that night and there were no extra blankets.
After a long day's driving it was wonderful to find a clean and tidy place where you could rest for the next day's long drive.
We had a really nice stay. Just 2 things: The sheets were clean but there were stains on. It does not look good, especially with it being white sheets. There silverfish is one of the beds. If these 2 aspects get taken care of we would like to stay there again. It is very convenient with the 24 hour service at reception, so we could come and go just as we pleased.
Will stay there again and recommend to others.
The accommodation is clean and tidy and the staff pleasant and helpful. The location is excellent and close to the N1.
Gables Inn has a comfortable location and everything you need for a quick overnight stop is there.
A nice place to stay on your way to Cape Town or back to Gauteng. Needs some attention.
You get what you pay for. I felt the facilities were up to standars for the price. Recommend for overnight accommodation if you just need a bed to sleep in.
Do not worry about their coffee or tea, take you own.
TV reception was a problem. Place was neat with all of the basic necessities. Good location.
We got a room that was sub-standard. Aircon and TV did not work and smelled dusty. After the receptionists came to check, we were moved to a better room. Thanks for that. Will stay there again
Confusion around the details of our booking. Didn't feel it was 100% school. DStv didn't know at all either. Expensive for what you get.
Definitely not worth the money.
Needs a urgent renovation inside but very nice from the outside.
Even though we booked, we found out after 800 km on the road, that there was no booking for us.
We arrived there at 13:40 on the Saturday afternoon. The room was then "just" cleaned. A smell greeted us upon entering the door, but we could not prepare what awaited us later. When we settled down and sat on the bed, we noticed a brown stain on the duvet. We assumed it was a coffee stain. I would have reported it later as well. In the late afternoon when it gets cold I drive to buy food. My wife stayed behind to get the room ready. When she pulled off the duvet there were dry blood splatters under the duvet. I immediately rushed to the room and pulled off the duvet cover. Immediately upon receipt. The woman gives me clean sheets instead of a clean duvet cover. Later the other woman who must have been on night duty came to the room. She heard what my problem was and saw that I didn't get a duvet cover. She then said she would bring us a blanket because there are no clean covers. Needless to say we are still waiting. No, if you want to make your wife angry, book your night there. Greetings, oh yes we traveled with four year old twins. Everyone had to fit on one double bed.
The shower is full of mold. Washed out pillowcases with hard pillows. Families with noisy children stay here, making it difficult to sleep. There are better places in Colesberg for roughly the same price.
The room lacked basic necessities such as a trash can. The television and M-Net could not be switched on because the required "multiplug" is not in the room. The picture on the television was very poor and one could not hear the sound at all. The light in front of the house was broken which made unloading difficult.
Linen was dirty with spots and marks on it. Shower was dirty, we didn't even use the shower. The overall impression was untidy.
Our room was old and neglected. No space to put your toiletry bad and handbag. Bedding didn't smell fresh. No toilet brush, toilet roll container or towel railings in bathroom. Bathroom light didn't work and no bulbs for bedside lights. Despite the note on the wall not to smoke in the room, it did smell like smoke and people. Never again!
Clean and neat with friendly service. Very good value for money and definitely the perfect overnight resort. Friendly and helpful travel agents who keep you up to date with the process of your booking, it gives you extra peace of mind, especially during a difficult time of the year. Thanks so much and I hope to make use of your prompt service again.
Great stay-over and staff were very friendly.
For 1 night's stay over, it was perfect.
It is easy to find and close to the N1 and has 24 hour receptionist on duty is a huge plus.
The service was good and friendly. Pity there weren't any plates and cutlery in the unit.
Everything was good. Neat. I just don't understand why there is a microwave in the room but no plates, knives and forks. What is the purpose of the microwave? I also think that there can't be one cup per guest. We arrived the afternoon and would've liked to have a cup of coffee right away but then we wouldn't have had coffee early the next morning.
Just right for an overnight stay. Nothing fancy but still met most of our needs. The white fresh bed linen and towels were a bonus.
Parking is a bit of an issue, especially if you have a trailer. People block each other.
Unfortunately the geyser didn't work so we didn't have any hot water. We reported it the next morning.

It is located close to the main road so you can hear the air brakes of big trucks all night long. The first night you usually don't sleep well and that plus the noise or rather loud music from a nearby night club, bothered you. They made noise until three o'clock. We got up three hours later and drove on.
The Gables is basic - unacceptable at that tariff. Steer clean if you prefer a little luxury. It is basic - room with beds and a bathroom with a shower. That's it.
Unit for three adults booked, but only 2 towels in unit. Pretty basic and slightly below average.
Accommodation near entrance to town and easy to find address. Surprisingly quiet even though it is located so close to town.
It is not value for money. The TV was broken. The kettle's power cables were open. What upset us the most was the old and torn towels. Inside is out of style. There were mugs, but no cutlery or spoons. Will definitely not stay there again or recommend it to anyone. Does not meet the high standards set by LekkeSlaap.
Gables Inn won't see us again.
Leak in bathroom that caused the entire floor to flood. When you got up during the night you had to walk on a wet floor. We accepted it because we only stayed one night.
Not value for money at all. Had to pay R350 extra for aircon. No coffee, no receipt and gate stood half open all night.
Disgusting, dirty, stinking bathroom carpets, mice running around on the premises, not as per photos. We rented 2 rooms for the night. We had awful service after a long drive, paid for a room with aircon and got one with only a fan. The other room's DSTV didn't work at all. We didn't get coffee or toilet paper.
