Perfect for a quick overnight in Cape Town.

Everything was great. We only needed accommodation for one night, and for that it was perfect (obviously would be nice for an extended stay as well). The room was nicely decorated and had a very comfortable bed. Exactly what we needed and great value for money. Thanks to the hosts!

Dear Aimee,

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear that everything was just right for your stay and that you found great value in it. We’d love to welcome you back for a longer visit next time!

2 Oceans naweek verblyf.

Oulike plek - sentraal geleë en netjies. Dis nie 'n B&B nie, maar daar is 'n gemeenskaplike kombuis met oorgenoeg geriewe om vir jouself iets te maak. In die Kaap eet mense in elk geval uit by al die lieflike plekke.

2 Oceans weekend stay.

Nice place - centrally located and neat. It's not a B&B, but there is a communal kitchen with plenty of facilities to make something for yourself. In the Cape, people eat out at all the lovely places anyway.

Won't be back.

Lovely room, yet the floor in the room corner is collapsing underfoot. Noise levels from the main home are not acceptable; all can be heard through the walls, including staff shouting to friends who stayed the night. Bar fridge rates are excessively high (bottle of water R40).

Thelma & You 's response

Dear Clyde,

Thank you for your feedback and for bringing these concerns to our attention. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the room, but we’re truly sorry for the issues you experienced during your stay.

We would like to clarify that there were no staff members hosting friends overnight. The noise you encountered was from fellow guests, who were promptly spoken to and asked to lower their volume to ensure a more peaceful environment for everyone.

With regard to the flooring, we are currently investigating and addressing the matter to ensure it is resolved swiftly.

As for the minibar pricing, we strive to be transparent, and our rates reflect the convenience of in-room service. That said, we appreciate your comment and will take it into account when reviewing our pricing structure.

Warm regards,
Thelma & You Team

Stay was great & staff very pleasant.

Stay was very good thanks & we'll come again. Front doorbell does not work, and it would be good to have a shelf in the bathroom for our toiletries. Also, it would be good to have one in the shower as well. I note that your trees discharge sap over the cars, which is difficult to get off, but there is not much you can do about that.

Thelma & You 's response

Dear Brian,

Thank you so much for staying with us and for your feedback.

We apologise that the doorbell did not work, but it has now been rectified. Please note that each of the ensuite bathrooms has shelf space to place toiletries on, it would be at the bottom of the sink

We look forward to welcoming you back.

Was okay. Lovely area.

The room needs better curtains that are easier to close every day. It needs a long mirror. The coffee in the room was old and hard, and I didn't feel comfortable going into the main kitchen; it seemed like I wasn't allowed. The bar fridge was lovely. Needs a drawer for clothes as one rack to hang isn't enough.

Not pleasant from the arrival to checking out.

We called and emailed to extend the accommodation, just to be told on Saturday morning to leave the property. This was after we had called and emailed, and were told they would make arrangements to extend the accommodation. Very inconvenient and unprofessional. Won't recommend this place.

Dear Warren,

Thank you for giving us feedback about your stay with us. Please note that we were unaware of the extended stay request, as we would have blocked off the room on our end so that no one could book the room. We do, however, apologise for the inconvenience that was caused.

Perfect for our purposes.

The greatest asset of Thelma & You is a man called Happy. He keeps the place immaculate, cooks up a wonderful breakfast, and is always friendly and helpful. We felt that a few things need attention: there was no bottle opener or corkscrew - we assume that a previous guest made off with them. They need to be replaced. The ironing board needs to be replaced, or at least the cover needs replacing. The waste bin in bedroom three is broken and needs to be replaced. There is a "Nespresso" machine, but we waited days before pods were provided (we had to buy our own). These are all minor things and can be easily fixed. Collectively, they do let the establishment down a bit. On balance, though, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Dear Shelly,

Thank you so much for sharing you feedback with us.

Verblyf was wonderlik, die parkering was net baie ongeriefliklik.

Drie voertuie op 'n stadium en voertuie moes kort-kort geruil word vir die in en uit gaan. Was nogal baie ongerieflik. Verder was alles super en die personeellid was profesioneel en uiters bekwaam.
