Stayed here for 3 nights and loved it. Great location, cute & clean rooms but the staff were our favorite. Everyone was very helpful and Warren set us up with wine on the rooftop in the evenings, which had an amazing view of table mountain. Great spot with a cozy feel. Would definitely recommend

Unique boutique hotel, with a central, open air courtyard check in. No elevator but we loved it! Staff were so friendly and accommodating and our room had its own patio. Roof top bar (not open for the season yet while we were there) had lovely views . On a fairly steep hill with narrow cobblestone sidewalks so not really handicapped accessible. Would recommend.

The hotel is clean, has a nice artsy vibe. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel cannot be better. Most things we wanted to see were 10 to 20mns walking distance, and the neighborhood of the location was beautiful, with plenty of coffee shops, small boutiques and colorful houses.
