Guest Reviews

• Moatshe (7/5): -
• Phineus (5/5): Happy - Homey Good location
• Mpho (1/5): -
• Tshepo (1/5): I didn't stay - Nothing Everything about the place
• Lesedi (1/5): Horrible - Nothing It was not clean is an understatement, it was filthy. They left bones and garbage in the kitchen. The shower was very close to the power socket. They didn’t offer us things like towels as stated in the accommodation description. It was not safe as local people could get in and out of the building. Lastly the noise everybody was too loud, not respect if the guest are sleeping.
• Mashabane (6/5): It was ok ,given how much it costs to stay there - Location is good Noise on the property
• Malinga (1/5): - I like nothing about this place the bed is not comfortable The place doesn't feel safe ,
• Boitumelo (1/5): - Absolutely nothing we ended up leaving the place on the 1st day of our arrival. The place was dirty and stinky. Nothing said on their page was found. Everything said on the page is a lie
• Londiwe (1/5): -
• lydia (5/5): -
• Thomas (3/5): Sehr dürftige Unterkunft - Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war runtergekommen. Die Wände waren verschimmelt.
• wisani (1/5): Dishonesty - Nothing at all I didn't even sleep it's there because the place is like a brothel the beds on the picture and what is there is way different Everything the place is like a brothel the beds are worn out the toilet and the shower in 1 place as if u are in jail I didn't sleep there I wasted my money
• Mike (1/5): Worst place I have ever spent at - Nothing There was nothing to like at all
• Mmabatho (1/5): -
• Dilebo (3/5): - The bed was comfortable There was no hot water. And kitchen is non existent. I could not even prepare a 2 minutes noodles. The dishes and pots were dirty.
• Kgawane (10/5): I would recommend this place for school kids, people travelling in church groups etc. - You get what you paid for. The place is just for sleeping and nothing else. It's the type of place you would book at if you are around that area for a funeral or a family event. You attend what you have to then go there to sleep then wake up and go home the next day. Hot water ran out fast. The communal showers. But if you like the camping environment you wouldn't mind this place.
• masenya (7/5): -
• Joy (8/5): Very good - Clean and neat None
• Rangata (8/5): The title is good. We don't have to change it . Thank you very much. - The place has spacious bedrooms, clean and friendly staff . The place has access to public transport, which is the most important thing about Matibidi Guest Lodge. We didn't know the place, but because of its good reputation, we managed to get the place without lost. Infuture the place should try to provide guests with breakfast only.
• Chabangu (1/5): Bad experience of accommodation - Nothing. We didn't sleep there because the place is unhealthy. I didn't like anything 😕 because what I saw on Booking.com is not what I saw personally. The room was smelling like raw fish. Toilet is in the room. Curtains are falling. The place is not safe at all. They must advertise with correct pictures.
• Hemant (1/5): "shit" - NOTHING AT ALL THE ROOM WAS EXTREMELY SMALL AND DISGUSTING. THE SHOWER AND TOILET WERE IN THE SAME SMALL CUBICLE WITH A SHOWER CURTAIN IN THE SAME ROOM. THE OWNER SAID IF I'M NOT HAPPY WITH THE SO-CALLED BATHROOM, I CAN USE THE SHARED BATHROOM. ??? THE ROAD THE PLACE EXTREME CORRUGATED SAND ROADS. THE GPS GOT LOST ON A FEW OCCASIONS. I DID NOT STAY THERE. THE PICTURES DO NOT SHOW THE ENTIRE ROOM, AND YOU HAVE TO PAY UPFRONT AND NO "REFUNDS". WHAT DISHONESTY................ PHONE / WIFI SIGNAL WAS LIMITED AND NOT AVAILABLE.
• Pamela (3/5): Not good at all! Place needs improvement. - The owner is a kind and polite man, but unfortunately, the facilities need a lot of improvement. It was kind of cheap and I think that’s only because of the location is in the bundus. Although we thought it was in Granskop. We had a disappointing experience at Matibidi Guest Lodge. We didn’t even stay for more than 10 minutes and had to book another place to stay. This guest house needs a lot of improvement to make it more comfortable and welcoming for guests. I would not recommend it to anyone. Even though the place was kind of clean, and the room felt old and poorly maintained. It did not look like the pictures at all. The Toilet is right next to shower both covered by a curtain. Sadly didn’t take pictures as we were very uncomfortable and shocked.
• Joshua (5/5): Passable -
• Marhungani (3/5): You wont cancel your reservation on the first night but... you can do better - Their pillows were comfortable The water was hot They have an iron and ironing board They have 2 power sockets in the room, one by the headboard and another near the shower They recycled pallets to make a headboard and nightstand, which is quite cute if you're into those things The outside was not paved so it was muddy The backyard had long uncut grass There were no facilities so there was absolutely nothing to do while there There are no TVs in the rooms There is no basin in the room and you have to use a communal bathroom to brush your teeth There was a leak in the room I was in and water was dripping the whole night, that water would then make the floor wet The toilet and shower are not separated There is no door separating the shower and toiler from the room, only a shower curtain The internet had no connectivity The bed was comfortable but noisy The door in the women's communal bathroom doesn't have a handle from the inside and will get you stuck
• Philly (2/5): Very poor -
• Maitje (10/5): Exceptional - Quite place 💃 Nothing
• Mongezi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bethuel (5/5): Passable -
• Claire (1/5): Very basic and very very rural - Staff were very welcoming and price was very low but you get what you pay for, beds were clean but not comfortable. The private bathroom facilities were a toilet and shower behind a curtain in the room. Not all rooms had fans. The shared bathrooms needed attention. It is very basic and not easy to locate.
• Boitumelo (10/5): I slept so comfortably I even wished I booked more days so I can stay longer. Staff was very helpful -
• Joyful (6/5): It was peaceful, there was a lot of insects though and the bathrooms needs some revamping. - The owner is friendly and promised to improve the place The bathrooms
• Pricilla (5/5): Matibidi stay - The location was good because it was near where we wanted to go They need a little improvement on their facilities
• Masuhlo (5/5): Passable -
• Dorofee (3/5): Stay as Short as possible, try not to use the ammenities at all - People were friendly. Very rural. There is no comfort to be found at this location.
• Larissa (6/5): Pleasant - The owner is very nice and kind. The location is okay (there are not many cheap accommodations around) you have to drive ~15 min to the canyon. The whole accommodation is still under construction and you can see this in the rooms. They are okay for one or two nights, but it’s really basic and there are still some things missing like the shower curtain. Also the rest till now is really basic and grey due to construction.
• Amber (1/5): We did not stay longer than 15 minutes. We checked in and check out. It felt unsafe, not secure at all. The staff were V - The staff were very friendly!!! The property is not advertised truthfully on this website. It is false advertising and was a big disappointment. No door to the shower room. Very dirty, cold, unsecured, broken windows with no heat, everything is concrete walls and floors. No proper entrance or reception area.
