    Breakfast with tomato and a cup of coffee, as example. Reasonably spacious and fairly quiet rooms with three single beds and great service. Location very close to a train station and food places and woodstock.

    Wi-Fi was bad.

    The hotel had good services. The location was marvelous, right next to a taxi rank. It was near South Africa, Cape, and fashionable steampunk bars and breweries. I enjoyed having coffee at Baked on Regent, just a 5-minute walk away.

    I recently had a fantastic stay at a hotel in Cape Town. the value for money was excellent - I couldn't believe the amazing prices for what I got in return. Secondly, the attention to detail was impressive. From the well-decorated rooms with balconies to the comfortable beds, everything was perfect. The hotel also provided basic amenities like a private bathroom and even offered a delicious breakfast. The staff were friendly and attentive, making my stay even more enjoyable.

    Although everything was great, there was one minor thing that could be improved. But overall, I had a wonderful stay.

    The decor and complimentary breakfast and wine were good. the hotel was located close to the city center and had easy access to public transport. the view from the rooftop was amazing.

    The room was too small and there was no place to keep our things. the staff was not friendly and offered poor service.
