What the reviews say
- The accommodation lacks cooking facilities, requiring guests to buy all meals from restaurants or takeaway.
- The thin walls mean constant noise from both the busy city centre location and other guests throughout the building.
- Inconsistent cleanliness standards, with some reporting dirty sheets upon arrival and bedding that isn't changed between guests.
- Located on Wale Street in Cape Town City Centre with walking access to restaurants and markets. Street noise is constant due to the central location.
- Top floor accommodation requiring stairs to access, not wheelchair accessible. Building has a locked front door for security.
- Thin walls mean you can hear activity throughout the building and street noise from the city centre. Private rooms are reasonably sized but furniture is in poor condition.
- No cooking facilities available, guests must eat out or order takeaway. Laundry service is offered at reasonable prices but may leave white residue on clothes from dryer issues.
- Cleanliness standards are inconsistent, some guests report visibly dirty sheets upon arrival and infrequent bedding changes between guests.
