Unfortunately it was what I expected to get, the hotel was more like a guest house and did not match my expectations at all

I didn't like that the room didn't have a bathroom. The bathroom is to be shared. For a little extra, you can have a bathroom and better location at 82 on Regent. Motown is okay if you enjoy sharing bathrooms with strangers. Due to the concerts at the time in Cape Town, most places were sold out which is how we landed up at Motown.

I recently stayed at the property located at 16 St Johns Road, Sea Point, Cape Town, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. My stay was marred by multiple instances of intimidation and harassment, which I first reported on 6 May 2025 at 15:59. Despite my best efforts to bring this to the management's attention, the issue was never properly addressed. I’ve submitted various forms of evidence, including WhatsApp messages, photographs, voice recordings, and video footage, all of which document the incidents in question. I also requested that management review the property's CCTV recordings to assist in the investigation, but to this date, there has been no resolution, and the harassment continues. In an attempt to resolve the matter amicably, I requested a refund for the remaining nights of my stay, but this request was unfortunately declined. Furthermore, the property has a significant issue with cockroach infestation, with visible insects frequently seen throughout the premises and evidence of egg laying in multiple areas.

We were there with the family, quite bad experience, it is pricey yes, but otherwise… - dirty - police visited several times (junkies were living there) - grils looking for sugar daddies and their night business were residents as well - they messed up our booking more than once, so that we actually had to sleep on the couch, because our room was given away… and that more than once. - other residents were robbed - we were not able to complain, since the manager herself was contributing to this bad experience and we were given a wrong email on purpose, so no chance of refund or excuse of the owner. Don’t be fooled by the pictures! We could continue the story with broken windows, dirt and dead bugs under the couch….

Not the usual accommodations for me but given my last minute decision to travel to Cape Town and it being high season what more could I ask for. The property was clean and the staff was excellent. Staff, Ntsika Nqebe went above and beyond to help my guests and I settle in and remain comfortable. I would recommend this place if you’re on a low budget and want to be close to the beach but don’t expect too much from the place. Bring your own personal cleansing care products and beach towel as none are provided.

A very peaceful and safe place to stay in Cape Town! I would advise my young grandchildren to go there, when visiting CT (for the first time?)! The staff are relaxed and very helpful and friendly! It is a very nice neighbourhood. It is in Sea Point, with shops and restaurants, and close to the beach. I had a very comfy single room, sheared bathroom. Lots of cleaning-staff was working all day, so the cleaning was taking good care of! There was a big common kitchen, and a big terrasse. A very nice stay!
