We had a pleasant stay, we slept in one of the private on-suite rooms. A bit more effort can be put into cleaning though, especially the floor.

About half a mile from the train station and close to all the restaurants and bars, Boulders beach is about a 20 min walk away. The train from Cape Town took just over an hour and only cost about £1.
