    I stayed in room 4, clean, comfortable, spacious and it had a very modern bathroom. I gave it a 9 because the property provides hand soap, and shampoo but not lotion and although there is a glass bottle of water, it seem they don’t refill unless (I guess) you ask them which I didn’t. Great and kind staff and the patio is lovely!

    The taxi partner (Ben) that Craig (host) recommended screwed us. He charged us 208% above the going rate. That was the only thing that left a "bad taste" in my mouth.

    The location was exceptional. The host was very hospitable.

    I enjoyed everything! Craig, the owner, was simply amazing. It's a clean, organized, functional and beautiful place, not to speaking about the kindness on the part of the host. Highly recommend it!

    The room and kitchen were perfect. The neighborhood is quiet and just outside of town, but it is so easy to get around Cape Town this is no problem. There are nearby cafes for when you don't feel like cooking yourself. Craig is an incredible and attentive host! He was available for questions and gave us recommendations for our time in Cape Town. He loaned us a cooler for a picnic, and he even took us on a hike up Lion's Head! We definitely recommend staying here.

    Everything worked perfectly for my purpose.

    The location was central, the host open, welcoming and friendly. My room not only an oasis, but enabled me to work comfortably. I especially appreciated the small kitchenet and the complimentary tea/coffee/milk - even fruit and rusks in my room The bathroom is modern with all necessary. To top it all guest have access to the main kitchen and can prepare own meals and make use of the honesty bar - like a home away from home.

    The location of this property is next level. Central to all in Cape Town. We absolutely loved it. Walking distance to a fantastic breakfast spot, gorgeous views of Table mountain. Simply excellent on all levels. Fantastic host, generous and caring. Loved the stocked fridge as well :)

    The accommodation was excellent, in a prime location, both to the city center and to Lein's Head and Table Mountain. The host has an exceptional amount of knowledge about hiking and climbing the mountains, which he is happy to pass on and help you plan your climb. Simply first class. Thank you!!!

    This place exceeded all my expectations: 1. Location: breathtaking view of Table mountain,very close to the centre, pictures neighborhood,cute coffee shop experience, 2. Accomodation: when you enter,you are greeted with such a pleasant aroma(of course I had to find out what was the name of the refreshener,to use it in my home as well😊) , the room have such a beautiful style of furniture, everything looks brand new, 3. The host: Craig is an awesome guy,so kind and provides you with all the infos to experience Cape town in best way possible, 4. Food: we didn't order a breakfast,but there we some treats like muffins that were soo yummy (I still have to find out where Craig buys them😊) 5. Cleanliness: like in 5 star hotel,the maid comes every day and makes the room spotless (she even folds your clothes if you forgot them lying around😊) Let me put it this way: if I ever move to Cape town, I want a place in that exact area and with that exact interior and furniture
