“In a quiet corner of Cape Town, this guest house offers a peaceful retreat, with clean linens adding a touch of comfort. However, upkeep appears to be a challenge, especially in shared bathroom facilities. For those seeking a budget-friendly base in a tranquil location, it might suffice, but be prepared for some rough edges.”
