AI Summary
Conveniently located near the beach, restaurants, and shops, with outstanding service and a well-equipped kitchen. However, some guests find the environment to be too neat.

Best hostel / backpackers ever. Clean, friendly, lovely music in reception. Close to beach and restaurants to enjoy. Definitely coming back. Complementary coffee and breakfast. Fully functional kitchen with your supplies to cook food and don’t forget about the hot tub outside.

General presentation looks good and it looks inviting but the Room is not as it appeared on bookings.com, lower your expectation. Our room (private room) had alot of black mold on the ceiling and it did not even look like the room we booked online. The shower was very filthy especially the shower floor. The key to the door was not working and it was difficult to lock and open. The furniture is either loose, broken or in very poor condition. Other guests where very loud at 2am in the morning. Screaming at their friends on the other side right infront of our door. They had no respect for other people. The walls are paper thin. You hear everything your neighbors is talking about and their entire toilet experience as well (while you are in bed) If you dont mind alot of noice until 3am and again from 6am. It might be ok for you. General outer appearance is good. For the price we paid online we checked out the next morning and got a much nicer place in sea point. Definitely not value for what we paid for.
