The CBD is quite busy and bustling during the day with many people out in the city. The comforting item about the hotel is that only guests can access the floor above the check in. Transportation is limited and offered by hotel but communication with them is spotty at best. Room secondary lock was broken and not fixed properly but at least you had to keycard to room floors.

Well located in CBD of Cape Town on pedestrian mall. Only problem was the street noise on St. Georges Mall which lasted each night till around 4 am and started again at 7 am as street vendors set up the metal frames of their stalls every day. Very hard to get a good night's sleep.

Our stay was excellent. The location may leave a little to be desired but the staff and accommodation more than makes up for it. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We will probably return here when we visit Cape Town.
