7 guests' feedbackThe main problem I had was that the photo with the pool was very very very misleading. Absolutely a total lie. In reality, it was covered with a blue plastic cover. And on top of it was bird poop, a thick layer of dog hair, loads of sand and dust and tree droppings from the surrounding trees. Also surrounding the pool area it was the same. I had to sweep it clean myself the first day I got there. Of course, I could not clean the blue cover since I would fall in the pool. Since I booked this accommodation purely for the pool to swim in, it was truly disappointing to find out upon arrival that I could not use it at all! When I questioned the owner about it she had no understanding towards me whatsoever. Her explanation was that the municipality gave them restrictions on the water and due to this I cannot use the pool. I really would have appreciated it if they had communicated this fact beforehand because I could then have booked something cheaper and closer to my mother-in-law. I found the owner very harsh and very unsympathetic when I explained my problem. She would not allow me to finish my sentences. Literally, she would just boldly interrupt me with her facts and would not allow me even to speak. This went on for about 15 to 30 minutes. It was almost like a screaming contest. I felt so degraded and not listened to. She just simply said, after I had already booked and paid for the accommodation, according to her, I received both an email and SMS stating that the pool was unusable. Later I checked all my emails and SMS's. Needless to say, I never found these emails nor the SMS's stating the fact that the pool was not usable. It was a total lie from beginning to end. Other problems we experienced were - a very noisy and huge fish tank (2 x 0,6 x 0,6 meter). You could not sleep with the water pump running all night. The owners would enter your accommodation unannounced while you are in it to give the fish food. Happened twice while my mom was in the main bedroom. They forgot to switch on the geyser and so we had to take a cold shower the first night - the 3 dogs barked at night and you could not sleep till they stopped. The main bedroom light did not work. Had to use the en suite light for the main bedroom - the stove to cook food did not work. Also, no instructions were found on how to work it. The sink to do dishes is at the pool area and we had no bucket to carry the dirty dishes to the outside sink. We used the small bathroom sink instead. There were more, but these were the most annoying ones.
The place inside was good. Toilet in main room not working, could not flush toilet. Sink is outside and must wash dishes outside. Table to add food uncomfortable and space hopelessly small.
Was a bit unsafe to go to the flat at night. Otherwise we had a good stay. And the fact that we weren't allowed any visitors was awful.
See the stars below.
Everything was 100%, absolutely nothing to complain about!
Quiet environment, comfortable with braai in room. Leave neat and clean
