Great ambience and nice rooms but l didnt like the kitchen.
Not bad.. hostel was loud on weekend.. pretty safe area and very nice grounds. Hostel beds outdated but nice enoigh
Very hospitable, great atmosphere organised and functional. Suitable for hikers, explorers, photographers and anyone not traveling with children.
Not for me it was boring I spent the weekend didn’t enjoy it. I preferred the backpack. Awesome vibe good people and in a good location
Fantastic location, within walking distance of Long Street and with the red tour buses passing at the bottom of the road, you can get to most places in Cape Town easily. The excellent staff are extremely helpful - able to help with directions, advice and onward bookings. Great atmosphere and food in the bar too. Have stayed 3 times with large groups and they managed them very well. Will be back. And good value!
Very friendly staff and have such a nice rest
Awesome location and great vibe!
Great memories of this place, it was our first stop on our travels. Clean rooms, friendly staff, good facilities and information.
Better backpacker friendly staff. Goodsighting for table mountain
Happy hour at the bar is between 7pm and 8pm. Pizza is delicious. Booze is affordable. What's not to love.
Great location. Great atmosphere. Excellent staff. And good value.
Very cool hostel located in an old house. Hast alles great time and met cool people.
Wel situated nearby center of city. Clean rooms, has kitchen, pool and bar. The ashanti people are very nice and helpfull. There is also a possibility to pitch your tent, it's impossible to reserve a tent spot in adcance: first come first get. Do NOT leave bags or anything of value in your car nearby ashanti! Your car window will get smashed and your stuff stolen
Nice staff, fair prices for food and drinks.
You are pretty close to the stores and bars, but it is actually pretty quiet at night.
Nice enviroment. Lots of weird people to meat. .ust be a people person to stay hetr
A nice place to stay in Cape Town! Located at the heart of Gardens, this hostel is just a short walk away from Long Street with its numerous cafes, bars and restaurants. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I stayed here with a group in February 2015 and we had a good time at this hostel. The food served at the bar is fairly priced and quite good. As this hostel is frequented by a lot of young people, it can get loud on the weekends. The sanitary facilities and the kitchen area were clean. The rooms are a bit small and can get crowded, but then again, this is a hostel. Also has a toilet with a fantastic with of Table Mountain - they call it "the loo with a view" ;)
Overall, a nice place to stay if you are traveling on a budget.
