    This place is perfectly located near all the nice areas of Cape Town. It's just a short walk to the Waterfront and surrounded by beautiful neighborhoods. The service here is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who made me feel right at home. The room amenities are top-notch, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The air conditioning kept the room cool, and the tea and coffee facilities were a nice touch. I also appreciated the sitting area and dressing area, which added to the overall comfort of the room. The Wi-Fi was reliable, allowing me to stay connected throughout my stay. The flat-screen TV and carpeted floors added a touch of luxury to the room. And of course, the breakfasts were delicious and satisfying, offering a variety of options to start the day off right.

    All in all, I would highly recommend this hotel.

    The room was clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The breakfast spread was amazing with a variety of options. Maureen, the owner, was kind and welcoming. Great location near Cape Town attractions.

    Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.

    Located in a vibrant area, with easy access to great restaurants and bars, as well as plenty of enjoyable activities, this charming B&B is nestled in a delightful neighborhood. the cozy rooms, outstanding service, and delicious breakfast all contribute to a memorable and pleasant stay. the patio is the perfect spot to relax with a cup of coffee and enjoy the quiet surroundings.

    One of the rooms might have a small bathroom, but this is compensated by the charm and coziness of this lovely establishment.

    We had a lovely weekend getaway where we enjoyed the beautiful terrace and attentive hosts who took care of our needs. The breakfasts were top-notch and indulgent, and the nearby recommended restaurants were excellent. The location allowed us to experience both the city and the peaceful surroundings. We loved feeling at home while being away.

    What a pleasant surprise! the historical location was very charming and unique; but the property has been restored and decorated beautifully with a modern and elegant design. the staff was very hospitable and accommodating. the breakfast offered delicious options and really hit the spot.

    Parking was difficult to find nearby and it was inconvenient to have to park far away. some of the rooms' bathrooms were a bit small and outdated.
