Not the usual accommodations for me but given my last minute decision to travel to Cape Town and it being high season what more could I ask for. The property was clean and the staff was excellent. Staff, Ntsika Nqebe went above and beyond to help my guests and I settle in and remain comfortable. I would recommend this place if you’re on a low budget and want to be close to the beach but don’t expect too much from the place. Bring your own personal cleansing care products and beach towel as none are provided.

Great Stay

On arrival I wasn't happy @ all with the type of room given to me. From the passage before entering room you could smell cigarettes smoke. I explained to the young man who showed me the room that I'm asthmatic & can't stand smoke smell @ all. Great guys indeed, he immediately turned the situation to my satisfactory, I was then happy. Great short stay indeed.

Promised Refund for canceled days nothing. Staff are incompetent, Thuli a pretty face but cannot do the basics, as a guest you have to assist other guests as Thuli is incompetent FFilthy dirty

Decent accommodation for a short stay

If you are just looking for a bed then ill recommend staying here, I was in a crash pad so single room and it was okay for the single night I was there, a few complaints were the vent in my room was a little loud but it was windy so it's sort of to be expected, but the WiFi wasn't working at all my side, but worked perfectly in the main Mojo Hotel

Pratique et central

Pratique et bon rapport qualité prix. Assez central dans le quartier de Sea Point. Ce n'est pas la premiere fois que j'y sejourne et je trouve que c'est pratique et central. Pas le grand confort ou luxe, mais acceptable pour des courts sejours.
