“8 nights in Stay Easy”

My 8 nights stay was better than expected. Location and security: Safe area, with lots of security on the street. There is always 1 hotel security at the door having an eye on you if you are outside.

My 8 nights stay was better than expected. Location and security: Safe area, with lots of security on the street. There is always 1 hotel security at the door having an eye on you if you are outside. Uber always come within 3 mins everyday I used it. Pick n Pay supermarket is 2 blocks away (5min walk), same for KFC, McDo and Steers and safe to walk at night. The street is also full of nice restaurants and pubs, all being upscale. On Sundays, they close the street, so you are free to walk in the middle of the steet, great initiative! Hotel: Decent room for a 3 star hotel, I stayed in a corner room which was bigger than the others. Great view of Table Mountain. Room cleaning was on point, they always came to clean the room in the afternoon everyday. Good job! Parking available downstairs. You also have access to the next door Sun Square hotel, with great rooftop pool and views. HINT: There is a secret passageway to get there, ask the reception! The Red Bus / City Sightseeing Bus Stop is 3 blocks away, you can easily and safely walk there. Reception: Quick and easy check in / out. Large lobby, but basic decor. 2 vending machines for drink and snack, but they take coin and notes only. They also have a microwave and ice machine. The cons: No amenities in the bathroom - 1 tiny bar of soap, and 1 tiny bottle of body wash. No fresh fruits for breakfast - just canned/sweet fruits. Microwave was very smelly, was not able to use it You will occassionaly hear "thumping" at night, it the next door "101" night club. Try to get a higher floor to avoid it. A minor complaint: I came from a long international flight, did not get opportunity to buy water bottle. I came at night, could not buy a bottle of water from vending machine as I had only card. Nearby supermarket was closed. I had to order 1 on Uber eats. By the time I got my water, I was dehydrated and with a headache. Getting water should not be a headache please! For all the thousands I paid, a water bottle would have make a difference :) Conclusion: It's worth it, particularly if you need to be in the centre. It has a decent price for the centre. However it lack amenities to make the hotel "fun". I will certainly come again.

This is a fairly basic hotel but the rooms are decent and clean, staff helpful and location good. If you are looking for a decent place to sleep at a good price then this is a good option. In terms of location it is pretty central and is on the fan walk to the stadium. The breakfast buffet is adequate and the food tastes good.
