This was our second stay and it was again a fantastic experience. Camps Bay is a beautiful part of Cape Town with views of Table mountain behind and the Atlantic Ocean in front. The POD is in an excellent position n within east safe walking distance to restaurants and shops.

8/10 Very good

Staff were brilliant, particularly, Concy. Room a little bit of a health hazard due to raised floor around bed. A little TLC needed we felt as room was looking a little bit tired. Veranda tiles needed relaying in areas. Enjoyed our stay but felt it was not quite up to the standards being charged. Also DIY work going on across the road at an adjacent house being renovated which created noise most days.

A short stay at the start of a longer visit to SA. The POD hotel is in a fantastic location and a great set-up. Perfect for a chilled break. What made the stay was the incredible staff who could not have been more friendly, helpful and engaged.
