Hotel Sky Cape Town
The room was likely not much larger than 9’x20’ with no closet, not much of a desk, and no mini bar. I usually do not use the mini bar, but these are basic amenities for the price. That being said the staff were very helpful, so my feedback is limited to the room size and amenities.
