We checked out 2 nights into our 4 night stay - the room was adequate but the clientele were noisy into the night and the onsite bar was not particularly family friendly. We opted to stay in a nearby hostel for our last two nights which had more of a relaxed, guest house vibe. Staff were friendly and room was fine, we just didn’t get much sleep thanks to our neighbours.

The daily activities put this hostel above the rest. They provide just about all of the fun things to offer that most people wish to do in Cape Town. The property is located in a nice quiet section of Green Point, walking distance from the V&A Waterfront. The restaurant and bar is excellent, very social as well. Great library and lounge area for quiet working or relaxation. Lots of variety on property for whatever kind of person you are.

Great hostel

This is my 2nd visit and it was great, the staff are all helpful and friendly especially at Randy's. The atmosphere and vibe is great for a solo traveller. There is fast wifi all the time, housekeeping comes once a day around 1/2pm. Cons: (out of their control) Loud noise all night outside the building every night Cape Town doesn't sleep. The mens communal shower on the 3rd floor is always dirty after housekeeping cleans it (Guests are inconsiderate). The guests this time that I stayed with in 301 were inconsiderate at night even with the policies in place they will come in put the light on while others are sleeping and make so much noise then leave to party until early morning come back and make more noise. Every morning 5am - 6am they make more noise by dragging suitcases from under the bed instead of packing stuff the the lockers provided My next visit to Cape Town I will definitely return because I still like the place
