Reviews

  • "The peace and quiet"

    13 January 2021

    "Nice stopover on your way to Johannesburg. Everything was fine but aircons are needed. The fans in the units are not of much help."

  • "No smoking rooms?"

    04 September 2019

    "We stayed in the budget room which states that its non smoking. Yet as soon as the door opened you could choke on the smell of smoke. The bedding all smelled like smoke and the winter blankets are in serious need of a wash. Overall it was it was a very long cold night."

  • "Overnight stay."

    20 October 2017

    "We loved the room. The mattrass was firm, which we liked and the ablutions were very clean. They care about their guests as they were phoning us late at night to find out if we were on our way and if they must waot for us."

  • "Bungalo"

    17 October 2017

    "My first day, 28 September 2017 at Onze Rust Guest House was really not good at all as they booked us in a bungalo and that was not what I requested from you guys, because I requested a unit that can accommodate a family, meaning husband, wife and kids. Over all and above I had to pay extra R400,00 for unit that is suitable for a family for Friday 6 October 2017."

  • "Enjoyed"

  • "Pateties!!!"

    03 January 2017

    "Dis die mees patetiese plek waar ek nog oorgeslaap het. Regtig kry waaiers. Ons het die dag 43 grade gemeet in Beaufort-Wes. Om dan die aan in Colesberg oor te slaap sonder n waaiier was erg! Ons het in elk geval niks geslaap nie jy kon skaars asemhaal in die kamer man. Ons het een uur die nag opgestaan en verder gery! Die twee enkel beddens se beddegoed het 10jaar terug al beter dae geken en die een bed is onstabiel, lyk of hy wil breek as jy omdraai. Die plek is wel skoon. O en bestuur is nou nie juis vriendelik nie. Nee ek is jammer NOOIT WEER NIE!!!!"

  • "Night of 11th January at Onze Rust"

    13 January 2016

    "Very efficient and good value for money. Interesting that a minimalist approach to accommodation is so enjoyable. There was exactly what we needed and nothing more.<div><br /></div><div>The soap dispenser in the shower empty and defective as the flap would stay up but apart from that it was a pleasure staying there. I found the internet booking problematic as I couldn't ask questions about the accommodation prior to paying without an exchange of emails. Sometimes the phone is the best.</div><div><br /></div><div>We'll stay there again.</div><div><br /></div><div>Dave Crawford</div>"

  • "Good stop-over to Cape Town"

  • "Veilig en gerieflik"

    11 March 2015

    "Ons het een nag oorgeslaap in 2 bungalows met dubbelbed, enkelbeddens, yskas, mikrogolf, TV, ketel, koffiebekers, borde, glase, bakkies en eetgerei. Alles was mooi skoon en netjies, ook die badkamergeriewe, alhoewel dit apart van die bungalow is. Voertuig is veilig agter hekke toegesluit. Dis nie 'n vyfster hotel nie, maar alles is netjies, skoon en gerieflik; die ideale plek om 'n nag of twee oor te slaap. Selfs die tuine is mooi versorg. Dankie Rina!<br />"

  • "Small"

    21 June 2014

    "The bathroom was so small a bigger than average person would have had difficulty getting in. The towels supplied were so thin after one hand wash.the towel was wet through. Breakfast was OK but would not stay there again."

  • "Karoo - Colesberg"

    26 March 2014

    "'n Baie klein en netjiese kamp area, met skoon badkamer geriewe, maar soos per vorige inskrywings, die bestuurderes / eienares moet leer wat die woord "welkom" beteken en baie onvriendelik, maar oor die algemeen is dit n ideale oornag plek vir n reis tussen Kaapstad en Johannesburg en die prys vir die kwaliteit akkommodasie is billik"
