Large spacious room with a nice en-suite, very clean in general and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was great, especially the fruit options. Location was excellent for morning runs, close to restaurants and <10min drive to V&A.
Wifi password was not obviously/clearly made available. Once connected, speeds were fairly slow.

My stay here was great! Had room 11 downstairs for 4 nights. Quiet, comfortable bed, strong shower, super clean. Owner Gary is a natural born host, also asks about your day, very friendly staff overall. Like staying with family. Good buffet breakfast included. The pool is not large, to swim laps use the public Olympic size pool 5 min walk on the seafront (1,90 eur). Neighborhood is safe. Property is perfectly located to do hikes. Lions head hike starts 30 min walking from there (use Google Maps). Property is in a great Uber location too, always Ubers around which can take you anywhere for a few euros. Overall: 10 out of 10 👍
Could use a curtain on the glass door to the patio in room 11.

- The location is good, close to the sea promenade, and there are many restaurants and cafes close by. Also the lively Mojo market is couple of minutes away. The area felt safe
- The staff were very nice and helpful, they promptly responded to my requests
- The room was spacious warm and clean
- the fresh fruits served at breakfast were very good
- the fact that we can have coffee and use the kitchen all the time was very nice
- the info in the property description mentioned "airport shuttle" and it was one of my selection criteria. But that was misleading, as it turns out there is no "shuttle", it's just an expensive taxi company that I could have contacted myself and I ended up using Uber
- the breakfast was ok and fresh in general but it was served starting 8:00 which is relatively late as all tours start before that. Also they might consider adding some fresh veggies (cucumbers, lettuce ..etc)

Location
Phoned 3 x to get into the car park, no reply. Was a tad nervous being in a strange city. Reversed down the road to go to ring doorbell. When answered and I drove into the car park, I asked, "Are phones out of order. ANSWER, what's the problem you're in now. A simple apology for the delay. "I was busy with guests," and it would have been acceptable. Instead, I got a bad attitude. Room spacious. Double plug next to bed worked on one side of double plug, not other. Bathroom floor so slippery I had to catch myself from slipping twice in the night. The shower floor needs a clean, as does the shower rose. The next morning, the owner said hello as I was driving out. I mentioned my surprise to the attitude, and he defends the staff member. My response was, had she communicated, she'd been busy with other guests, I would have immediately understood. He still defended her rudeness. I wouldn't go back here despite the convenience of the location.

The breakfast was amazing especially the fruit salad and the strawberry yogurt. The location was safe and we would go Seapoint mall and Mojo market on foot to as late as 11pm. In Room 8 you get to view the Table mountain

Really great location. Kim is an amazing host. Very welcoming, helpful, and genuinely kind.The bed was very comfortable. Good breakfast. Backup power in case of load shedding. Overall, everything was perfect.
Nothing about the service, but the rooms are carpeted, so if you have allergies, it might be a little uncomfortable. With some antihistamines on hand, it wasn't that bad because the rooms are cleaned well every day.

Loadshedding, but considering the fact that they are using a generator as backup that would be very loud at night.

Nice place to stay in the hip area of Sea Point.
Garry and the team are very nice people and made us feel at home. The breakfast is very good and we even could enjoy the pool at hot days.
