You should really try to improve the standard of the hostel --> everything is broken and in very bad conditions. Though I enjoyed the stay, it's the worst backpackers I saw in Southafrica!!! Sorry!!

This is a great place if you're into the party scene. The night life around the Hostel is strong. If you're trying to get to sleep before 4am, you need to stay some place else. Also, parking on the street is limited and costs a lot.

A great hostel - highly recommended to the younger visitor. Right opposite Cool Runnings night club which means it's really noisy until about 4am.... I guess if you're tired enough you'll get sleep!!
