2.0 star property
Cape Town City Centre
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (161 reviews)
"The property was easy to locate, secure, and basic. They do not have a masssive kitchen to which your goods can be placed but a tiny fridge which only staff have access to. No eating in the rooms. Our private room was lovely and had towels, blankets, and a fan. The beds were cozy and the individual lights at the bunk beds were perfect for our children. The restaurant downstairs is good. It is awkward to eat though if you have brought your own food. For a hostel, this is one of my favorite...
