This is a guesthouse in the Malay Quarter that is incredibly cheap yet has rooms that would not look out of place in a top 4 or 5 star boutique hotel.
The owner, Bruce, is a very interesting man and could not have been more helpful during our stay. The guesthouse is perfectly located for exploring central Cape Town, De Waterkant and the waterfront area. It is also just round the corner from Ginga, one of the top restaurants in Cape Town.
