We stayed at superior double with bathroom. The room is cozy and comfortable, and the bathroom is very clean and easy to use. The staffs are gentle, and breakfast is delicious. The interiors are so nice, which I felt their artistic spirits about. The access to Table Mountain is good! ##### Reiko Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noreen 9 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I LOVE this place!!! Architecturally & environmentally so pleasant, flowing interesting. Kind & friendly staff. Clean, quiet. I could stay forever ##### Noreen Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Andre 25 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Fair Eco Hostel but beware of your room location Beware of the room facilities because there are rooms in which the bathroom is outside (Cape town can be a cold and rainy place) in open areas. Shower is not good at all (tried 3 different in the hostel) but maybe this is because of the water concerns and eco view from the hostel. Friendly staff, location is good but right in front there are people living in the streets (what is common in many areas of city centre). My room was not good concerning silence. Also there were lots of families with children during my stay. ##### Andre Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carsten 4 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awesome Hostel in a awesome City Simply one of the best Hostels in one of the greatest cities in the world I‘ve stayed in!!! Make sure to get the family room as it has great views to Table & Lion Head Mountain.

Het was schoon, met zwembad en fijn ontbijt. Wat wil je nog meer?? Soms wat gehorig (weg en gasten) maar tussen 22:00-07:00 zeker heel stil. ##### Patricia Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Malin Olsvik 11 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Supert opphold Hyggelig personale, bra lokasjon, fine rom og et koselig basseng ##### Malin Olsvik Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eduard Tomislav 5 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sehr tolle und gemütliche Unterkunft mit vielen interessanten Begegnungen.

Tout était censé se dérouler à merveille pour mon anniversaire. Je réserve et paye pour une chambre familiale pour 5 nuits. La responsable a jugé bon pour rentrer dans ses frais de nous donner une chambre standard simple sous les combes (Je fais 1m80 je vous laisse imaginé) avec l'odeur, l'humidité et la vétusté de la chambre. Comme nous n'étions que deux nous avons eu cette chambre à la place de celle initialement payé. Nous nous sommes donc rendu à la réception le lendemain pour leur faire part de notre mécontentement car la veille nous sommes arrivés tard le soir et c'est le vigile de l'auberge qui nous a fait l'enregistrement. La Responsable ose nous répondre qu'elle ne voyait pas le problème car nous n'étions que deux personnes et que nous étions dans une auberge et non un hôtel (allez chercher l'erreur nous payons pour une prestation et on nous demande de quoi nous plaignons nous ??). Et là a commencé le début de notre cauchemar car non seulement elle nous a mis à la porte nous n'avions plus de logement dans un pays étranger(en Afrique du Sud) de surcroît deux filles et à cause de ses mensonges Hôtel.com a refusé de nous reloger car elle leur a dit que nous avons refusé d'accepter la chambre standard. Résultat des courses à 19h nous étions à la rue à chercher nous même un autre hôtel qui était pour la plupart complet. Un anniversaire catastrophique à cause d'une mauvaise personne.

Parking for a small fee on site was very useful. I thought there was a laundry room on site, but I was wrong, they can send laundry out to be done and returned the next day. ##### Lew Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 29 Jul 2019 Liked: Amenities Excellent location and nice staff. It’s overpriced and overrated as well. I expected more based on the reviews. The room seemed old and had a weird smell. The breakfast is only cereal and bread. It’s supposed to be an eco friendly hostel but is more to save money than anything else. Encourage you to not flash the toilet and saved the water you used after taking a shower! That was odd to me. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 19 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Liebevoll eingerichtetes und sehr nett geführtes Hostel, fußläufig der Long Street ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 22 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nettes Team, saubere Zimmer, leider sehr laut und mittelmäßige Lage ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary 19 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort great, really clean location with a fun vibe. very easy to meet other travelers.
