The effort of climbing the set of steep steps to get to this Hideaway is worth it. The entire wall is a window overlooking the ocean, which means you can watch the sunrise and stargaze at night from bed. The room has all the amenities needed, lots of cupboard space and cleaning materials. Linen/bedding is comfortable and clean.
It's located by the St James train station, tidal pool and Folk Café and walking to Muizenberg or Kalk Bay is easy.
Charley is an attentive host and even gave me some useful surfing tips! The Damn Fine Coffee provided in the room is a bonus highlight.
I enjoyed my stay so much I'm going back in September. Maybe 2 weeks this time!
