“Cape town's cape sun”

In the CBD, Southern Sun Cape Sun is a good-value convenient stay for many: a big room, provided snacks, a not-far-from-airport location, an overall-clean older building, a decent breakfast and a highlight shuttle bus to the Waterfront. Dissents though: so-so just-okay food for two guests and a severe hot-room report — no air conditioning anywhere, an unresponsive fix or timely move, a dead TV and a safe needing a call to work.

Rooms: Big amid the severe dissent noted.
Service: Amid the unresponsive dissent noted on most stays.
Location: Convenient for guests on stays on most stays.
Food: So so per the dissent noted.
Facilities: A waterfront shuttle for guests on most stays.
Value: Good amid the dissent noted on most stays.
Cleanliness: Clean amid the age nit noted.
