“Not bad at all”

Decent 3 star hotel, good value for the money.

“basic but acceptable”

Very Basic rooms but relatively clean. Although advertised as having tea and coffer making facilities this constituted a kettle and some cups but not actually tea or coffee. A good choice of hot and cold buffet breakfast included in the price made up for this though. Quite centrally located and only a ten to fifteen minute walk to the waterfront and five minutes from the livelier bars on long street. The safes on the ninth floor don't work but there are dual key control safety deposit boxes available from reception at no extra cost. Very reasonably priced hotel bar with a large television area for watching sports but the area can become very crowded with other hotel residents. Approximately 200 rand taxi transfer (rank straight outside the door) to the airport so not particularly pricy but ensure you agree taxi fares on any journeys as they tend to be non metred and if not careful you can get ripped off

“very old and dodgy hotel, only the picture taken part are renovated..”

the part of the room that the picture is taken, are renovated.. washrooms and corridors etc. are not.. and very old and not in a good condition... very dissappointed... cape town downtown is not a good area anyway.. there was no point getting the accommodation near downtown.. so if you consider, jst get it near the waterfront, and beach area.. better surrounding and better quality

“Too Old”

Too old fashionate, not so well conserved (I found two little cockroaches into my bathroom, coming from the drain). Dark neighborhood at night (only commercial offices around).

“2days stay in january”

Nice and helpfull staff. Hotel is though at the same time operated as a students housing and was quite noisy. There was a used towel in my room as I came and now toilett paper...

“Security concerns”

The positives about this hotel are the central location, (one block from the hop on hop off bus); the airconditioning worked, the included breakfast was reasonable and I was able to leave my suitcase in a locked room for the day. The negatives are a very creaky lift, dirty, stained sheets on the bed and the lack of security. Twice during my stay, maids let themselves into my room while I was there, without knocking. There is no interior lock or chain , so anyone with a key can walk right in. The second time I was in bed and although I had pushed my suitcase up against the door, it did not stop the maid from trying to push it out of the way to enter. Complaints to the front desk were brushed off. Very inflexible about late check out or early check in. Did not even check to see if the room was ready but bluntly told me at 1.00 p.m. that I was too early. I knew this, but most hotels will at least check to see if the room is ready.
