The safety and security were first class, as was the hospitality of all the staff, who would go out of their way to help. They would book tours etc for you. The place was cleaned every day and the facilities were excellent. As a 70 year old, first time backpacker with a suitcase, I had quite an experience. The Lodge... More

It's a nice enough place: good location, clean rooms, okay facilities but the service and atmosphere isn't close to the other hostels we stayed at in Cape Town. It has all the right ingredients but just seems to be something lacking. Not a bad plan B.

Hi there Thanks for your review. It is always interesting hearing different people's perspective on a place because obviously one cannot cater for everyone's taste. We had a Danish couple leave this morning who absolutely LOVED staying with us because it's quiet and they can have a drink on the verandah in peace. We don't have a bar (but you... More

Ashanti Green Point has a very nice location, close to the beach, waterfront and several grocery stores, restaurants and main transportation routes. The rooms are simple - literally, a bed, two night stands, a mounted TV, a safe and a bathroom. And they are very clean with new fixtures and a modern feel. The staff is friendly enough, although maybe... More

Luckily I was only staying for 2 nights, but that was too many! Lets start with the positives - it is within walking distance of most things - beach, shops, bars etc. Rooms are clean and spacious, with a handy sink. Shared bathrooms are a good size. There is a pool and kitchen. Negatives - Staff! Well to be fair... More

Stayed for 3 nights - was fine - as you would expect from a backpackers really. Bit odd having a missed dorm, but there you go. Showers were clean and hot, bed was comfortable and its in a great location fro the beach. Perfectly acceptable - would stay again.

Hey there! Thank you for your review. Mixed dormitories are perfectly standard in most backpacker hostels around the country - in fact, we are one of the few that does offer single-sex dorms. I am sorry that there was not one available during your stay but if you had pre-booked I am sure you would have got a female-only dorm.... More

Hi Susan Thanks very much for your review - I am glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. Most of our guests enjoy the pancake mix and being a backpackers lodge they usually have their own groceries to cook breakfast. We do have a breakfast menu available if you required a more substantial breakfast - just order at reception.... More
