Heel vriendelijk personeel, maar kamer en ontbijt viel tegen
6.0Beste aan de accomodatie is het personeel. Ze zijn ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam.
− De kamer en het ontbijt zijn heel basic. Wij hadden meer verwacht gezien de prijs, maar het was erg sober. Uiteindelijk zijn 2 nachten eigenlijk wel voldoende, want er is niet veel te doen in de buurt dan de game drives. En als je met een gids gaat hoef je eigenlijk ook niet zo dicht bij de ingang van Addo national park te zitten, want er is meestal een breng- en ophaalservice.
Guest review
7.0The rooms were comfortable, staff were friendly and the dinner was delicious
− The rooms lacked carpet which made the floor cold thankful for the electric blanket. The breakfast was not up to standard, the coffee machine was not working
Un bon lloc on estar si vols anar al Addo Park
8.0Tot plegat, amb la seva amabilitat i malgrat hen estat només una nit, l'ambient, la situació i fins i tot hem comprat una obra d'art que tenien en exposició. Bon sopar i bon esmorzar. Una bona experiència abans d'entrar al park.
− Dificil de dir amb una estança d'una nit.
Fantastische plek vlakbij Addo
9.0Wat een fantastische plek! We zijn goed ontvangen door de host na een vervelende gebeurtenis onderweg. We hadden de honeymoonsuite geboekt, wauw! Zelfs de champagne stond klaar. De locatie ligt super voor een uitstap naar Addo Elephant Park en we zijn naar Schotia geweest op advies, nou geen moment spijt van! De kamer is enorm ruim en de buitendouche mooi met grote waterstraal. Ontbijt was lekker en we kregen zelfs wat producten mee voor een picnic in Addo park, super lief. De opstelling van de kamers is goed bedacht, je kijkt allemaal uit op het zwembadje met watervalletje, enorm knus. Zéker een aanrader!
− Enige wat ons opviel was dat het best gehorig is als je gasten in de kamer naast de jouwe hebt, Tot 2x toe viel ons licht uit maar dit werd heel snel weer verholpen.
Guest review
10.0The staff and the accommodation was great. We were there two years ago and it's still as warm and welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay.
− Nothing
Elephants! And more elephants.
9.0Staff were very welcoming, great communication, very attentive. Location was perfect; just a stones throw from Addo and the motorway (short transfer from Port Elizabeth airport)
