    noisy surroundings

    The hostel had a cozy atmosphere, making it

    easy to connect with fellow travelers. The dorm was spacious and clean, but the location was a bit noisy at night, which made it hard to sleep sometimes.

    Fantasia and Tamsyn delivered excellent service! ! The location is ideal for exploring local attractions.

    friendly staff
    great vibe
    street noise
    shaky bunks

    The hostel had a great vibe and friendly staff, making it easy to meet fellow travelers. However, the noise from the street was quite distracting in my room, and not all facilities were up to par. Breakfast was decent, but the bunks were a bit shaky.

    cozy lounge
    relaxing pool
    noisy room

    I had a wonderful stay here with plenty of convenient amenities like a relaxing pool area and a cozy lounge to unwind in. The only downside was that my room wasn't very soundproof, so it could get a bit noisy, especially when people were outside. Overall, I’d say it’s a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring! 😊

    central stay near amazing parks and top attractions in cape town

    I had an incredible time with great views of Table Mountain every morning and the location made it super easy to stroll to nearby attractions like the Labia Theatre and the Cape Quarter, both less than a kilometer away, while the staff was so helpful, always going the extra mile.

    cozy vibe
    great service
    pool area
    limited breakfast
    shower pressure

    I enjoyed my stay at Villa Viva. The location felt safe and secure. I loved hanging out at the pool – it had a cozy vibe that was perfect for unwinding after long days of exploring. The staff provided fantastic service and were always ready to help with any questions. However, there were a few issues. The breakfast organization could use some improvement. on the morning I went down, they ran out of quiche and the options felt limited. It would also be nice to have more loungers in the beautiful garden area for relaxing. The room had a good setup, but it was disappointing when the shower needed better pressure. Overall, it had the right mix of social atmosphere without being too rowdy – a nice balance for downtime.

    smoked salmon bagels
    cozy vibe
    strong wifi
    dodgy air-conditioning
    party noise

    Absolutely loved the smoked salmon bagels at the bar area – pure bliss! Plus, the vibe around the pool was social yet chill, just perfect after a day out. Strong WiFi even during load shedding was a lifesaver too!

    The air-conditioning was a bit dodgy, and daily housekeeping didn't include fresh sheets.
