If you decide to stay there...be prepared. Staff are very uniformed on what's happening in CT and seems agitated always. The staff seem to care more about there friend that comes and visit them at the bar. Great spot to get a heat stroke or blood stained pillows. If you are looking to have fun in beautiful Cape Town this isn't the place to be.

Great vibe for open minded, party people. Would absolutely recommend it for anyone who's looking for a good time. Not the most comfortable or luxurious place but the vibe is great. The staff are friendly and vibey, great shows and bands playing every odd day. It's close to all the clubs and bars in town and it's safe. Food service is great and affordable. Not the cleanest place and the "temporary residents" get too comfortable.

Summary: you can get a lot better hostels for cheaper. It's not that clean, tiles, windows or lights are broken, it's super noisy and the typical traveller feeling is also far away. Instead, external people from outside can come in and it feels like a place you're happy to leave. Wouldn't really recommend - there are nicer ones at the waterfront with pool and nicer facilities for less money!

Its an okay place to stay at. The kitchen is small with only 2 stools for all the guests to sit and eat. There is eating place outside but if its raining then we have a problem. It has a great lounge downstairs with live music.

New owners. WiFi is the best of any hostel in CT I promise that. Very social, as a solo traveler it was easy to meet people. Staff are super friendly and helpful - booked tours, looked up surf conditions, gave us a free game of pool, etc. Right in the action on Long St close to everything. I stayed in 3 hostels in CT and this is the only one I’d be excited to go back to. Thanks guys!

We booked late and the guy at the reception was not amused about this. He handled bored and we felt not welcome. The room was small and had a bunk bed which was uncomfortable. The bathroom I visited had nothing to put your stuff on and the wall was full of mold. All the stuff was old and looked shabby. Cause it's a big hostel, it's more anonymous and less familiar and it's located directly in the party area from cape Town, so be prepared for rellay loud noise well ahead midnight. My tip, look for something different.

The pictures we seen on the Internet is false advertising. The rooms are not up to the standard, there's offish smell. Yes we understand that it's for backpacker's, but the least you could do is to have the room clean and tidy.

Is this a hostel or a rock show? I don't have anything against bands playing their music in a hostel, but maybe you can lower the volume past midnight. My bed 1 floor above was vibrating because of how loud the music was. I could hear every lyric perfectly as if it was coming from my earbuds. Maybe get a bigger hostel, more floors or a very deep basement if you want to do that.

Affordable price for Long Street, Cape Town...but warn out mattress, extremely hot in the rooms, not expecting air conditioning but at least a fan. Dirty showers and toilets, very noisy especially Sundays. Staff seem irritated and not very helpful. Will not stay there again.

Nice enough place... but if you are hoping to sleep at all before 4am don't stay here. most of the rooms are right above the hostels disco bar. they play loud beats all niggt. woke up the next morning with disco beats still pounding in my ears. not good.

Very limited room space, foul smell, unkept, door handle too stiff to open 👐 communal kitchen better, fridge very old with expired food. Cheap price at no comfort, reception better, bar is a better place to be than the accomodation itself... Not impressed by the owners at all because its great location for such business, it requires massive uplift, discounted price... WiFi excellent
