"Genial gelegen für den Besuch des 🐘 Parks"

9.0

Für den Besuch des Parks hervorragend gelegen. Sehr nettes Personal. Frühstück und Abendessen sehr gut. Wir würden diese Unterkunft wieder buchen. Aussendusche sehr originell und echt mal was anderes 😃

Der Pool ist wirklich klein, aber zum Erfrischen ausreichend.

"Una buona base per visitare l'Addo National Park"

8.0

Struttura comoda base per visitare l'Addo National Park e vicino alla N2. Stanza ampia con arredo un po' datato, stile campo safari. Buona la cena, molto gentile lo staff

Nessun riscaldamento, la serata era piuttosto fredda, presente un piccolo elemento riscaldante mobile che non garantiva il necessario comfort nella stanza.
