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.

We stayed in one of the houses so it was quiet. The people on the desk and the person who looked after the house we stayed in were both very friendly and helpful.

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.

I had an amazing stay here over new years. Many of us came in after dawn and chatted on the couch. We played cards and shared stories. There is a family atmosphere here. Thanks.
