Hostel

😠 We had a bad experience at this place Cold shower,no towels no soap. Room cabinets to be fixed And some tingling on bed. You also need to clean the toilet,kitchen and bathroom yourself. We went there relax,we end up doing what we always do at home.

    Over rated on appearance, more hostel type for foreign and local teen graduates ideal for a teen group tour or for the average youngster trying to get started off their feet. Very cold over priced aswell. Disappointment.

    Extremely disorganized. I was initially accommodated in a crummy room on the top floor. I hadn't booked this room. Bathroom was filthy and I had to ask repeatedly for a towel. I was moved the next morning into a better room which was cleaner and more pleasant. But place could still have been a lot cleaner. I would not recommend this accommodation.

    More like a flop house than a hostel. You have to check in 5 blocks away which they don’t tell you and then yell at you for not knowing. The room is as basic as it gets, same for the bathroom, and kitchen. Cleanliness is lacking as well and no atmosphere or facilities and weak WiFi. Close to the Main Street and beach that’s about all it has going for it

    Very very bad organized hostel. And not even friendly. Check In isn't at the hostel, you have to walk! We waited a long time at the checkIn and we didn't get what we booked and in the evening there came another guest who was in there before!!! Never never again!!

    The receptionist took down the details off our bank card. Only place we used the card and was never else out of sight. We have just had transactions worth R9000 go off our account. Do not book here!

    Simplicity and very neat ... a good alternative if you only look for a peacefull place to lay down your head. Well looked after.

    Very well situated, very clean and comfortable for a family of 4. Block away from the beach and public swimming pools.

    I don't understand how the management can say nothing when EVERY NIGHT at the reception level, people are SCREAMING. To speak loudly, THEY SHOUT and respect no one. why is the reception not saying anything?

    Solange the lovely housekeeper made us feel so cared for and brought such a friendly happy energy with her everywhere she went. She is so sweet. The overall staff was always smiling and willing to assist me with any concerns or queries I had. This made my stay at MoTown Enjoyable.

    A place to sleep. Staff pleasant. The whole place on the shabby side such as black mold in showers, no mirror in bathroom, stove difficult to operate. Only high temperature. No hot water for over a week.
