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.
