Penelope • February 25, 2011Found an awesome restaurant up the road called Beleza really good food at really good prices.
Ciara C. • December 30, 2017Great location, all the main going out spots including V&A & Long Street are walking distance! Monroe suite may look tack but you learn to ❤️ it! With window open you really hear the vibrant CT life!!
Ben S. • December 14, 2011Don't book your tours at the reception in down longstreet instead to get it every tour for R80 less
M.J. • February 3, 2013Creepy men ready to jump at you from the ceiling... No seriously! Very cool though. Conveniently located near bars, restaurants and safe enough to walk and good transport system.
