Young's Halfway House

Reviews

• "IRRATE"

  20 January 2020

  "My stay at Young's was for two nights in January 2020. Regrettably, it was my very first but also very last stay at Young's. The temperature in Beaufort West reached was 42 degrees Celsius during my two nigh stay. Despite this there is no air-conditioning in any of the rooms and this made my two nights unbearable. I could not sleep and was sweating profusely. It is mind boggling that Young's do not have air - conditioned rooms especially because they know what the temperature becomes like during summer time. For someone who suffer from sinusitis and allergies the room felt like a death trap because of the unbearable heat. I was very disappointed.I have to be in Beaufort West for another week between 12 and 22 February 2020 and suffice to say I will not be booking into Young's."

• "Nothing - Best thing was leaving."

  29 August 2017

  "On check in at 3 pm our unit was not ready. We were given another one where the bathroom floor was deep in water either the basin or loo was leaking - we nearly slipped on the water!. Went to reception offered me a room with a double bed and bath. We are 2 sisters who specified Twin beds and Shower. They then gave us a room with a double bed and Bunk bed - this for a lady in her 60's was very uncomfortable. Cleanliness was a hugh problem fridge (which was not switched on) was dirty under it and the shower looked asif it had last been cleaned months ago. Only one glass in room for 2 guests? Would NEVER recommend or go back."

• "Self catering???"

  13 July 2017

  "Establishment should study the meaning of self catering. It does not mean i must bring my own plates / cutlery , pots, stove, etc."

  "Perfect for a stay over to break the long drive to Cape Town.<div>Breakfast was great and served nice and early to get on the road again sooner rather than later.</div>"

• "Loggie Aug 2015"

  24 August 2015

  "After a very long drive on the road I just need a place to rest and sleep over and this accommodation suited me perfectly. The receptionist is very kind and friendly and I was even offered a coffee package for the thirst when I booked in. Later the evening I enquired about a coffee package for early the next morning and the guy told me I can buy a package @ R5.00 but there was nothing available.<div>I enjoyed my stay and will make use of the facility again.</div>"

• "Very noisy"

  14 April 2015

  "The room was clean but had very strong duo block smell giving me an immediate headache. The location is poor in the sense that it is on the main route shebeen and taxi rank in a very close vicinity making it extremely noisy. No chance of a good nights rest with trucks and screaming drinkers around the corner."

• "TERRIBLE SMELL IN ROOM"

  12 April 2015

  "WE COULD HARDLY SLEEP BECAUSE OF A TERRIBLE SMELL THAT SEEMED TO COME FROM THE SHOWER DRAIN. SORRY CAN NOT RECCOMMEND AT ALL. THERE WAS NOT ANOTHER ROOM AVAILABLE SO WE HAD TO STICK IT OUT!!!"

• "Koos Fourie"

  "Nice and clean, will only like to have a small fridge, coffee/tee available then one don't have to run around for it. An air-conditioner will also do the trick, when as warm as with our stay."

• "Stay away!!"

  13 June 2013

  "Poor. Directions were hopeless, the room cramped and not self-catering as we had asked, the staff non-commital.Would not recommend this place to anyone ever.NOTE: the one star was clicked only because otherwise this message would not go - this place IS NOT WORTH EVEN ONE STAR."

• "Nice"

  05 June 2013

  "The room was neat and tidy. My complaint was that it was very close to the main road and very noisy with the big trucks passing through."

• "Just one big blemish"

  17 April 2013

  "The room was clean and smelt nice, everyone was kind. There was just one major blemish to our stay. As my brother got into bed he felt that is was wet, when we looked we found a large wet patch on the bed.. it was urine!! Smelt like dog urine. I don't know who stayed there before or if there are dogs allowed in the room but the bed was definitely not cleaned for our stay. They where kind enough to offer another room, but the fact remains that that was pretty disgusting. Sorry to post this but I would have wanted to know this before booking."

• "Great stopover"

  10 January 2013

  "The beds were amazing, so they really deliver if you only will be sleeping over for a day. I would suggest the pool getting some work done though,but for our purposes just for a one night stopover it was great!"
