The Rose 508: Stylish City Centre Studio

Gute Lage, ich habe mich in keinem Moment unsicher gefült. Pool am Dach war sehr angenehm für zwischendurch. Sehr ferundliches Personal.

Friendly staff, lovely place.

The apartment is quite central and within walking distance to a lot of amenities. The Aparthotel is felt safe and the digital locked makes it quite futuristic. The apartment was modern and felt quite new. The pool is also a cool feature on a sunny day.

Lack of free parking is a challenge especially when you are coming to the Rose with multiple bags. The check-in process was rather confusing. While the Aparthotel is called 117 on Rose, the entrance to the place is on 117 Strand and when you get into the 117 Strand building, the security guards will guide to the entrance of the Rose around the corner. The security guards seem disinterested about checking people in and the "no visitor" policy makes the experience unpleasant. Lastly, the lack of temporary bag storage facility was also disappointing. The bed was also quite long leaving a small passage for one to pass through. Strand street is quite busy so getting a e-hailing cab just feels dangerous. The couch could use a deep clean, the bed was rather flimsy and I found strands of hair in the apartment.

Appreciated the cleanliness of the rooms. Staff members were friendly and helpful. We stayed for 2 nights and there was no housekeeping services. The parking situation is inconvenient: for safe, covered / basement parking overnight (or extended time periods), you have to pay R160+ because the apartment leverages another building’s paid parking. The other option is street parking. We booked the room with a Mountain View but that was only available on the rooftop. The AC in our room also wasn’t working.
