Green Elephant Backpackers

1 Hazel Chingono - a month ago

The worst experience ever.
1They don't clean the dorms it was only cleaned on day 5 since my arrival.
2. My sheets were changed after 6 days after I had asked a roommate and was told I had to request for change of sheets. 3.Was booked here for nine days but I'm leaving before I have to because of the attitude and lack of customer care I have received from the lady on duty at reception here today, twice. I was willing to ignore everything else but the disrespect here is astonishing. Imagine someone waking you up to question you at 23:45 why I am using 2 pillows, after I had been using 2 pillows for a week? Now I can't even go back to sleep.

Service was poor.
Cleanliness was poor.
People sleeping on the floors and couches.

Look. I'm going to be honest. I saw the place online and it looked great. And I do understand that covid affected everyone. However. First thing that put me off was there was nowhere to park. Second. I got out of car and told my partner to drive around so I could find out where the parking is. When I got to the door I saw there was a poster up for rooms to rent @ R3500 per month. Fine. They offer long stays. So I ring the bell and was let in. First thing I saw was the photos was actually taken in better days. There were a few unsavory characters sitting around that were drinking quarts of beer which the hostel was obviously selling. Loud music and kids crying was heard throughout. But as this was a business trip and we needed to work and have some quiet I did a u turn. The guy who wanted to book me in said I must first book in before he tells me where my partner ( who is driving around not knowing cape town or the area! ) can park. Sorry but I left and looked for another place. I'm not saying you can't have a good stay there. Just not for me at the time

I loved this place. The staff was amazing and was always helping me where I needed help. The vibe feels like home, unlike Observatory backpackers, and Aanda and Arthur were great people to meet. The cleaning ladies were amazing and respectful of my items and personal space. They wanted to always ensure that my door and locked and that my things were safe. Damn, I will miss this place.
