It wasn't very clean, the rooms were good enough (was winter and there was no blanquit I had to sleep in my sleepng bag, there was too cold ), but we had a really good time because the staff is really cool, and dinner is great to meet people in the bar, the location is far from the downtown, so you should take a taxi.

I would recomend the hostel to a person on a low budget because great deals regarding tours and transportation were offered there. The staff really looked out for the safety of the guests.

The food is amazing. The staff is very helpful and will bend over backwards to help you out. It feels so comfortable here that you feel like you are staying with family. It's quiet and has a beautiful view of Jo'burg. The dogs are lovely. The overall atmostphere is laid back, comfortable, and yet professional. Excellent place!

Great helpful staff. Heavily discounted taxi service. Plenty to do here. Most important, there is a bar!
