Location great and the views. Only problem is the room had an unpleasant odour - possibly the carpet. However I would stay again.

The Ashanti Lodge is not to be compared with international backpackers. It pays its dues to the beautiful scenery of Cape Town and one cannot stress enough the lodge character rather than the type of accommodation as backpacker.From check-in to departure the service was friendly and the accommodation neat (not very spacious though) and value for money even if travelling with your partner.Among all the backpackers in Cape Town this is the one to book!

The staff were all very friendly and helpful in every way. The backpackers breakfast was lovely and set you up for the day and the views were spectacular especially of table mountain. The rooms were well equipped,bedding clean and bed comfortable. Some of the plugs didn’t work but that’s okah there were more than enough. Overall would definitely recommend to friends due to the friendliness and clean and modern facilities.

Owen and the girl behind the counter were great and John the security guard. They were very helpful. The place itself is very nice, although it comes with the expected 'discomfort' of sharing a room. There was also a duck quacking continuously and really loudly in the morning which woke me. Beyond that, shower facilities and breakfast was awesome. I would recommend the stay.

Breakfast was fantastic. People in the corridor talking till late was disturbing. To use wifi I had to come out into the lobby area, which was not convenient.

A very good backpackers accomandation which also has rooms. Excellent activities desk. Excellent fast included wifi. Close to Long Street which has many curio shopping options and great range of entertainment and eating options. Only bad experience was having to pay extra on checking out due to a variance in what Expedia charge my for Queen Room and what they passed on to the Ashanti which is very disappointing.

Everything good about Ashanti, but make sure if you don't like noise or cigarette smoke, don't get a room that adjoins the big balcony overlooking the city - people sit out there until late each night and both noise and smoke come through the windows.

Initially had a very noisy room next to the pool with tables outside in the evening where you could hear every word. Then moved to a room near reception which was very noisy in the morning. The area is not safe to walk after dark so the food offered could be a bit more expansive.
