Very nice. This is a very nice place to stay. The hostess is very hospitable. It is very close to the park and the area is very safe and very quiet.

Baie lekker. Dit is 'n baie lekker plek om te bly. Die gasvrou is baie gasvry. Dit is lekker naby die park en die gebied is heel veilig en baie stil.

Safe, friendly and just 7 minutes from Addo's southern gate! We had a very nice stay and were greeted very kindly by a very helpful hostess! We were there during a very hot time. Each room has a ceiling fan, but more ventilation might be something to look into in the future. Excellent location and we felt very safe.

Veilig, vriendelik en net 7 minute van Addo se suidelike hek! Ons het baie lekker gebly en is baie vriendelik ontvang deur 'n baie behulpsame gasvrou! Ons was in 'n baie warm tyd daar. Elke kamer het 'n dakwaaier, maar meer ventilasie is dalk iets waarna 'n mens in die toekoms kan kyk. Uitstekende ligging en ons het baie veilig gevoel.

Joyful, pleasant and satisfying. Our stay at Addo Backpackers was absolutely wonderful! The place is well appointed, with every detail showing that a lot of effort has been put into making guests feel at home. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with everything we needed and more. The hospitality of the owner was something special – her friendliness and willingness to help us made our stay even better. She was always willing to help plan our day, which really made the experience special. The surroundings are also breathtaking – quiet and peaceful, perfect for a getaway. We will definitely go back and can wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a special getaway. Thank you so much for an incredible experience!

Verblydend, aangenaam en bevredigend. Ons verblyf by Addo Backpackers was absoluut wonderlik! Die plek is goed ingerig, met elke detail wat aandui dat daar baie moeite gedoen is om gaste tuis te laat voel. Die kamers was skoon, ruim, en baie gemaklik, met alles wat ons nodig gehad het en meer. Die gasvryheid van die eienaar was iets besonders – haar vriendelikheid en bereidwilligheid om ons te help het ons verblyf nog beter gemaak. Sy was altyd bereid om te help om ons dag te beplan, wat regtig die ervaring spesiaal gemaak het. Die omgewing is ook asemrowend – stil en rustig, perfek vir ’n wegbreek. Ons sal beslis weer teruggaan en kan hierdie plek met oorgawe aanbeveel vir enigiemand wat op soek is na ’n besonderse wegbreek. Baie dankie vir ’n ongelooflike ervaring!

Friendly and helpful reception, clean and comfortable and really good value. Addo's Backdoor Secret is a comfortable and secure one bedroom flat with ensuite bathroom and an open plan lounge/kitchen. Our host made us feel very welcome and provided valuable information and literature about what to see and do in the area, but particularly in Addo. If I could make a suggestion, it would be to have dinner plates that fit into the microwave. It was no crisis, we managed using the side plates and it made for a novel experience to eat off two plates. The bed was very comfortable with a super warm duvet and even though the night was chilly, there was no need to fire up the gas heater. Bedtime reading would be easier though if there was a lamp on both sides of the bed. We appreciated the fresh salad ingredients our host provided straight out of her own veggie patch. Vehicle parking was secure on site and at no time did we feel unsafe. We would gladly return.

Ideal location for people visiting Addo. The only downside was after a day of travel we all wanted to shower. Only 1 person showered, then the water was cold.

I'm sorry to hear about your cold experience. If only you had shouted out to me. I would have fixed the issue very swiftly. Communication is key. Please accept my apologies. I can do a free meal next time to make it up to you

Quiet, nice, everything we needed. Very nice stay, good value for money, everything you need. Will definitely stay there again overnight and longer than a night to explore the area. There could only be bigger glasses for cold drinks, and we couldn't find the Wi-Fi password, but that wasn't a necessity. See you again!

Rustig, lekker, alles wat ons nodig gehad het. Baie lekker gebly, goeie waarde vir geld, alles wat 'n mens nodig het. Sal beslis weer daar oornag en langer as 'n nag oorbly om die area te verken. Daar kan dalk net groter glase vir koeldrank wees, en ons kon nie Wi-Fi wagwoord opspoor nie, maar dit was nie 'n noodsaaklikheid nie. Julle sien ons weer!

Very friendly and hospitable reception. Spacious accommodation. Would prefer there to be a door to the bathroom for privacy.

Baie vriendelike en gasvrye ontvangs. Ruim verblyf. Sou verkies dat daar vir privaatheid 'n deur by die badkamer is.

Uncomfortable having to share a house. In a way it was nice because it was close to the park. Having to share the house was uncomfortable - dishes weren't put away, the kettle had ants in it and the airfryer was covered in oil.

Ongemaklik om huis te moes deel. Op 'n manier was dit lekker, want dit is naby die park. Om die huis te moes deel was ongemaklik - skottelgoed was nie weggepak nie, die ketel het miere ingehad en die airfryer was dik aangepak met olie.
