Eher spartanischer Aufenthalt
Pros:

Die Lage der Unterkunft.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung ist zum Teil sehr in die Jahre gekommen, es gab nur einen Gartentisch und Plastestühle auf der Terrasse und das Sofa hat sein Leben gelebt.Kein Geschirrtuch in der Küche.

Pros:

The host was very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. Our apartment had everything we needed:pots, cutlery, braai area, etc. The children enjoyed themselves in the pool.

Cons:

They should say in advance that the aircon is prepaid, and maybe provide some Insects repellent. Luckily we brought our own doom. So we didn't have much issues.

The host was nice. The place has potential but the owners should invest a bit more to it.
Pros:

Close to Kruger National Park, in the bush a nice experience.

Cons:

There’s no signs to get you to the place as soon as you’re in Marloth Park.
There are steep stairs going to the room upstairs.
Very basic for a self catering, not enough utensils.
We were there for a week as a family of 4, toilet paper was only one roll.
The walls separating the rooms were too thin you can hear the other people in the other room.
Aircon in the Summer heat was prepaid, this you are not told.
Braai area not covered and there’s no light, how can you braai when it’s hot and no light in the night.
Floors were dirty, if you walked barefoot, feet would be pitch black.
They had a bar fridge, yet we were there for a week, most of our stuff spoiled.
Shower used a curtain, only one piece of soap yet a family is coming.
The bed would need a change, past its prime.
