Shekinah Lodge will not disappoint you!
Mark and Lisa are great hosts. I felt I was visiting family and my interaction with the other guests staying there was very warm and refreshing too. It is a great location with easy access to Huat Bay, Camps Bay, etc.

Nice guesthouse
My stay was nice. The couple who run the guesthouse were very friendly and made a real effort to make sure everyone was comfortable. Downsides: blinds (so light got in) and the room was very warm

Family guest house.
Small family run guest house in the center of Sea Point. Very clean safe and well run place with a friendly atmosphere and wonderful cleaning staff who look after you. Good basic breakfast with Mark and Lisa making sure everything is just right. Lots of travel information just for asking and bus and taxi nearby.

Not the best
Lodge used to be student accommodation & hasn't improved much. No booking when I got there, they did their best to help. I received confirmation, the problem was with Expedia (hotels.com). Not impressed but 1st problem I've had.

Affordable, clean, secure, and quiet rooms.
Very Good. The Owners (Mark & Lisa) were very welcoming and friendly. I enjoyed the barbecue prepared by Mark for the guests. The location is close to everything! (bars, the sea, mountain. paragliding, & so on). The rooms are very quiet & the bed comfortable. And the price is very affordable. I will certainly come back.

Angeblicher Deluxe Room (downstairs) war letztendlich ein kleines Zimmer (upstairs). Alles nicht sonderlich sauber. Frühstück war minimalistisch. Kaffee kalt wegen Stromausfall. Man musste zum Toasten in die Küche gehen. Angeblich hatten sie keine Bestätigung bekommen dass ich bezahlt hatte …. Alles in Allem ein Reinfall.

Sufficiente
Lodge in centro città, comodo per visitare, però non ha parcheggio bisogna parcheggiare in strada, la camera è molto piccola, il bagno non molto idoneo, ha un lavabo inesistente, non hanno fornito accessori bagno, le salviette non le hanno cambiare mai, noi abbiamo fatto 3 notti. Il frigo fornitissimo ma tutto a pagamento non c'era spazio per mettere nulla. Il caffè in in un tapper il resto tutto a pagamento, colazione sufficiente ma non molta scelta. Per il resto ok.

Ubicación
El lugar es excelente! Se encuentra cerca de todo tipo de servicios, la playa está a 2 cuadras y hay supermercados, restaurantes, lavandería, etc. Es seguro caminar y es ideal para caminar. El personal es sumamente agradable y amable! Volveré a alojarme ahí sin dudas!
