101 guests' feedbackIt was a very pleasant overnight stay. Dave and Thelma were excellent hosts. The guest room was very clean and we had safe parking for our car.
Very very nice. Very friendly host, neat and beautiful rooms. Perfect place for that half way stop on the way to the Cape. The most delicious home-made biscuit.
Very neat and clean. Booking was done at the last minute and it was not a problem at all.
Always nice there. Our favorite sleepover.
Very good value for money in a guest house with a warm atmosphere.
The room had everything needed for a pleasant stay. The hosts are amazing people. Friendly and very helpful.
Deliciously cuddly and warm. It was freezing cold, but here we braved the cold with their warm welcome, friendliness and electric blanket plus more warm blankets! It was the most beautiful room and we thoroughly enjoyed the short time. May we meet again in the future, thank you very much!
Very nice stay and will definitely use it again.
Lovely overnight stay and received with warm Karoo hospitality. Highly recommendable.
Comfortable and safe.
Very clean, comfortable and practical. The rooms were comfortable, clean and comfortable. Owners were friendly.
We had a great stay here as a halfway stop on our trip. The place was clean, tidy and safe.
It was delicious. The cereal for breakfast with milk is a winner. Everything we needed was available. The rooms were first class. Thank you very much.
Had a great sleep over there. Neat and clean. Would definitely recommend it.
Perfect for a one night stay. Has everything you need, including aircon and electric blankets for the cold.
The reception was a bit "tumultuous" because we didn't answer the owner's question about whether we had a trailer since we were already on the road for the 2nd day and I didn't get an email. But the stay itself was wonderful, cleanest room, everything you could possibly need and more, and was able to catch up with the latest news, very good DStv package!
Everything was perfect. Great room. Great beds. Location was good. Will definitely come back!
We had a nice stay, everything was as we saw it on the website.
We had a wonderful stay. Very friendly reception and very safe.
Very comfortable but still a bit cramped. Should say instead: Pet tolerant. Around every corner there are assignments that are not allowed!
Nice place to spend the night, thank you. Als was very neat. Will stay there again.
The stay was comfortable. The room includes a fridge, kettle and mini kitchen which was a big plus.
Comfortable bed, clean, warm and cozy room. The fridge was a bit noisy throughout the night, though.
See stars.
It was nice we were a little late but it was arranged in advance. We were not received very kindly because the fact that we checked in late. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.
Peaceful rest en route home.
Slept very well. Walking distance from the restaurant. The parking is unfortunately a bit bad. Can't park with a pram, no parking for it. Gotta cut him off. Furthermore, it is a very cute place and everything works and is clean and conveniently close to everything.
We really can't complain about anything.
Very nice stay. Can recommend.
We enjoyed the overnight stay.
Thank you very much for your hospitality! The unit was very comfortable, beautifully clean and the beds slept very comfortably. It is also walking distance from 2 cute places to eat. Will definitely use La La Dathel again!
Everything needed was provided. Hot water and an electric blanket (on an extremely cold winter's evening in Colesberg). Couldn't ask for better. Very kind and friendly host and hostess. Would definitely want to stay there again.
Always nice to sleep here on the way to the Cape. Friendly reception and very clean and tidy rooms.
Accommodation fully met our needs as an overnight facility. Friendly reception and guesthouse owners were very helpful.
Very clean and safe place. Secure parking for vehicle.
Great place, highly recommend!
We were pleasantly surprised. A nice spacious and comfortable unit. Well equipped for load shedding.
Clean and comfortable room for a quick sleepover.
The shower does not spray properly. The toilet leaks. There is no sink except in bathroom to rinse cups. The bedding is absolutely good quality and the bed. It's a nice big room. I think they are asking a bit too much. At least we want to wash the dishes we use, but no washing facility. They will have to look at shower head and leak behind toilet.
Really had everything we needed. Very neat and clean. Air-con which helped with the freezing temperatures, comfortable beds, coffee, tea, rusks, even cornflakes! Would definitely recommend for a stopover.
We slept great and felt very safe. The bedding is lovely clean and crisp white. Oh, it was just nice to stay there.
Recommend La La Dathel for a good place to stay on your way to or from the Cape. Parking was safe, but a bit tight.
Lots of unnecessary rules (eg don't sit or lie on beds if you're not using them, but you pay per room). We were called later and asked if we had taken their bedside lamp and left our own there. It was a bit of an unnecessary accusation, because who would drive a bedside lamp back from a guest house and who would exchange one at a guest house.
I specifically booked room 5 because there was a kitchen for our self-catering. Then we were placed in a cramped room with only a fridge and 2 folding tables packed full of cutlery without a washing up facility for the used cutlery. Not at all what I had in mind during the discussion. In retrospect I would have chosen other accommodation in the Colesberg area.
Contact person was very rude.
The owner is incredibly unfriendly and not at all helpful with parking arrangements. She yelled at me when we stopped there and didn't even say hello properly.
Wasn't received or sent a Whatsapp address, when we arrived I was just called by my name and told "there's the gate". Advertise that they are "pet-friendly", she is not even friendly herself, absolutely unfit. My dogs were a problem (2 small Jack Russels) have to do their business outside in the tarmac, no lawn. We packed up after 1 hour and went to sleep at another place in Colesberg, which was really animal friendly. Didn't even ask for my money back from the inept woman, there is no hospitality or even decent way she talks to her guests. Was the worst place I have experienced in the last 5 years.
Dave and Thelma were welcoming and friendly. Room was clean, neat and tidy and suited us as a family.
Awesome place friendly people, and lovely restaurants.
I have also stayed at La La Dathel before. The beds are comfortable. The place is clean and tidy. I am impressed.
I would recommend the by place. Very friendly.
More than I expected.
After a long day on the road, our stop at La La Dathel was like a proverbial oasis. Arriving in a freezing cold Colesberg the night before load shedding, our air conditioning and electric blankets were already switched on. Delicious, clean linen, hot water and a nice cup of coffee before bedtime. what more can you ask for? Thank you.
Friendly hostess and host.
Very clean, air-conditioned, safe parking.
We rested well for the evening, ideal place to stay the night.
Place was clean and comfortable.
The owners were very friendly and helpful. Room was also neat and clean. Will recommend.
Hostess was very curt, unfriendly and put a damper on our vacation. The place is not pet friendly! Parking is also a problem. There is also no place to sit outside except in the cold-blooded sun, nowhere to have some shade nets or anything - just in front of a stoep in front of other people's doors.
I read the reviews before booking and the negatives were mainly directed toward the owners' attitude. Add this one to that pile. We booked and paid in full. Upon arrival, we were shown to a completely different room than what we booked. When this was raised, we were told that it is not their fault, there is already a family staying there (wrong, their website says it only sleeps 2) and they refused to reimburse us the difference because all rooms cost the same (they need to check as there is misinformation then). Of course, we didn't expect them to kick the family out and we understand that a margin of error can occur when booking via a 3rd party. However, the owner's not-my-fault-so-not-my-problem attitude was very dismissive and disrespectful. Sometimes it is not about what the issue is, but how it is handled. The confrontational and defensive manner in which it was handled made us very relieved that 1) we were only staying for one night and 2) that we didn't have to deal with her upon checkout. (Dave was gracious enough to apologize as we were leaving). For those thinking of booking - if everything goes smoothly, it should be a pleasant enough stay, but if something goes wrong that inconveniences them in some way and you have to deal with the owner, good luck.
The place was very neat and well furnished. The hostess provided delicious biscuits and breakfast porridge.
Good, basic overnight stay. Room was very clean and tidy. Secure parking. Close (walking distance) to restaurants. Reception was not welcoming.
The unit reeks of smoke. It is rented out as sleeping 5 but there are only 4 beds. The 5th bed is a day bed of which 1/3 of the mattress is over the edge. After falling off the bed for the 3rd time during the night, my son moved the mattress to the floor and slept on the floor instead. Also, the air conditioner went off after a while and never came back on. Was a rough night.
We will definitely stop over again. Could not ask for anything more.
Perfect overnight place if you are dead tired after a long day's travel. Everything you need, safe and tidy.
Clean and tidy. Good hostess! Can recommend it to anyone.
We only stayed overnight on the way between Cape Town and Pretoria. Friendly, prompt service and everything was fine for us. Coffee, tea and biscuits for early morning departure conveniently in room. Secure parking behind locked gate is bonus. Delicious place to eat at Inni Kraal just a 100 meter walk. Electric blanket on bed. We will spend the night there again.
The unit was very neat and clean. The convenience of the kitchen was a plus. We will definitely stay there again when we have to spend the night in Colesberg.
La La Dathel is the perfect overnight accommodation for a stopover and break from the long journey from Durban to Cape Town. The room was neat and tidy and had everything that we needed for our stay.
We were 3 adults who stayed one night at La La Dathel. The environment is wonderfully quiet for someone who wants to relax. We were treated to biscuits and even breakfast cereal which is ready in the room with your coffee for the morning. We didn't have any hot water, but our hostess let us know after we left that they immediately made work on it.
Lovely resting place, warm and friendly.
Thelma is very helpful. La La Dathel is very neat, clean and there is order.
Neat and well equipped accommodation.
Have a great time at La La Dathel. The four poster bed in my room was a bit too short for someone my height, but would still recommend. Owners are friendly and always there to help. Thank you!
Neat and clean. Nice that dogs are welcome (their toilet is outside the gate but very safe) had no problems.
Everything you only need for one night when traveling. Rooms were clean and tidy.
Neat and clean. Too much furniture in the room. Nice rusks and Post Toasties were a nice surprise.
Clean accommodation. Pictures look very nice but they are misleading. That part of town is noisy. Quality bedding but mattresses and pillows rock hard. Hostess appears a bit unfinished. Very neat bathroom.
We stayed just one short night with our 3 small children and 2 animals. We all slept in one room with beds for all. It was ideal. Plenty of space and very comfortable. The location was in walking distance from restaurants. The rusks and cereal provided meant we didn’t need to stop so early on our onward journey. We would definitely stay again.
The location is right and the owners are very friendly. The place is nice and clean and I love the detail. Walking distance from everything. Secure parking.
Very neat. Walking distance to a good restaurant. Will definitely stay there again.
Comfortable and neat rooms. Will definitely stay there again
We were kindly received, the room and bathroom were beautiful and clean and tidy. We could walk to the nearest restaurant.
People were very friendly, salt-of-the-earth people. Place was well located, very neat and clean.
Thank you, we arrived late in the evening and were kindly welcomed, everything was neat, clean and comfortable. We felt safe and our vehicle was also safe behind closed gates. Places to eat are close enough and we ordered delicious takeaway meals. My dog traveled with me and the people at the guest house even accommodated her. Thank you very much for that. It is really appreciated and the stay with you was really five-star quality. I definitely recommend La La Dathel to people, the host and hostess are very pleasant, friendly, helpful people and we will definitely stay there again.
I will definitely come again, thank you for the most beautiful clean white towels in the bathroom, it made an incredible impression on me, as well as the breakfast porridge, biscuits etc. which was available in the unit. May your blessings be in abundance.
Amazing. Awesome. Netjies.
Would definitely recommend.
Central location, close to facilities. The room was clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend it.
Neat, clean and hospitable.
Very nice clean, lovely linen, cute with biscuits and cereal flakes at the coffee and tea table. Everything you need in the bathroom.
Inappropriate treatment. We were not told about dogs while in writing type of dogs were mentioned during enquiry.
Room was neat. It was nice that places to eat were within walking distance.
We are 6 people and had a great stay and the room had a lot of space for us. It's very clean and well located. Will stay there again for sure.
Highly recommended, and fantastic.
Very neat, very clean, professional, excellent.
The reception was friendly, place to stay clean and with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Well located, walking distance from restaurant. Can recommend it.
We really enjoyed staying at Dave and Thelma's place. They thought of everything and received us very hospitably. Bonus is that our dog children were also very welcome. We can recommend it to anyone and will stay there again!
Very clean, tidy and comfortable for a night or 2 overnight stay, value for money. Thank you very much
Fantastic place to spend the night.
