Pragtige plekkie.

Gasvrou was baie gasvry. Baie skoon en netjies en goed geleë in Midrand. Kan dit sterk aanbeveel.

Netjies en skoon. Vriendelike diens.

Wat ek die meeste geniet het, was die lekker warm bad. Dankie vir die ekstra myl om ons Sondagoggend baie vroeg met 'n heerlike ontbyt te bederf.

Aangenaam verras.

Die mense is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die kamers is baie netjies. Daar is DStv beskikbaar, nie alle pakkette nie, maar die meeste. Jy kry 500 MB data om mee te werk, so maak seker jou rekenaar se updates is af, anders gaan dit nie hou nie, maar hulle is ook nie bang om ekstra te gee indien nodig nie. Die ontbyt is van hoë gehalte en Tug se omelet mag maar oorweeg word. Dit is baie veilig agter twee veiligheidshekke en 'n mens kan rustig bly sonder bekommernis. Dit is goed geleë met toegang tot die omliggende besighede en ook die hoofweg is baie naby, maar sonder die geraas van die voertuie. The Cottage is definitief 'n baie goeie opsie om te oorweeg.

Pleasantly surprised.

The people are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very neat. DStv is available, not all packages, but most. You get 500 MB of data to work with, so make sure your computer's updates are down, otherwise it won't last, but they're also not afraid to give extra if needed. The breakfast is of high quality and Tug's omelet may be considered. It is very safe behind two security gates and one can rest peacefully without worry. It is well located with access to the surrounding businesses and also the main road is very close, but without the noise of the vehicles. The Cottage is definitely a very good option to consider.

Dit was regtig een van die beste plekkies wat ek by oorgeslaap het.

Ons is van die begin af baie tuis laat voel deur Jeanne, die eienaar. Die kamers was pragtig en uiters skoon. Die ontbyt was vyfster en ons is op die hande gedra. Ek sal beslis weer daar gaan bly en beveel dit ten sterkste aan vir enige persoon wat verblyf soek in die Midrand-omgewing.

Lekker verblyf, heerlike ontbyt en lekker groot, sagte handdoeke.

Gasvrye ontvangs. Lekker groot woonstel waar ek en my vrou kon bly. Ons was tot laat in die aand besig met ons seminaar en ons het geen probleem gehad met sekuriteit nie. Dit is lekker stil met 'n rustige plaasatmosfeer en ons kon lekker vas slaap. Die woonstel was netjies skoon en die ontbyt presies soos ons daarvan gehou het. Ek sal weer hier bly en sal die plekkie aanbeveel

I would stay here again and would recommend the place
