Rent A Room

During my three month stay, the attention from rent a room has been superb. Any request or question have been answered promptly and staff has ensured we have a pleasant stay.

Overall my experience was great! We do have a problem with ants in our house which was annoying however it was not the end of the world. We also had a bunch of issues with our alarm which seemed to be a huge inconvenience whenever we would ask for help. However, overall I really enjoyed my stay. My housemates were super awesome and I’m super blessed I got the opportunity to come down to capetown!

Rent A Room is the best service if you are looking for comfort, security, and agility. All staff works professionally and responsibly to ensure you feel at home away from your country. Besides, all your needs are taken care of in a matter of minutes. Doudou Mandeke, for example, was a very empathetic and quick staff member to change the room I requested, thus ensuring a more comfortable accommodation for me. You can trust the Rent-A-Room team with your eyes closed.

Friendly staff, responds quickly to questions and/or problems and the room itself is very comfortable. Definitely enjoyed my stay

I had a great experience staying with rentaroom. They were very responsive when it came to fixing technical problems in the house. They made my transition to Cape Town very comfortable and straight forward. The houses were kept up nicely by the staff and communication was very good.

Rent a Room made my stay in Cape Town such a beautiful experience. Even before I arrived to Cape Town, I had no doubts I would be hosted well because the staff were very responsive every time I needed any clarification with regards to my booking. The staff are quick to respond and for that I commend them. I then arrived in CT and I stayed in Loft L7 and my room was very spacious and at a very secure location. The cleaning was done well and I can’t really complain on anything about Rent a Room services. The only thing I would want to mention even though it is not the fault of Rent a Room is that since Cape Town is very windy, room 5 in L7 can get a little dusty when it is windy but once I shifted the bed away from the small gaps that were bringing in the dust everything was excellent. But this is just a minor issue that can be solved by blocking those minor gaps. But all in all my stay was excellent and I wouldn’t mind staying in the same room again if I were to return to Cape Town. The apartment is also just 5 minutes walk to the supermarket and the area with many restaurants so if you don’t feel like cooking, you will not go hungry. All in all it was a wonderful experience and thanks Rent a Room for hosting me and for even allowing me to check out much much later than the usual time. That I appreciated. Thank you Patience and Keelan for responding to my WhatsApp messages at odd hours, that was very much appreciated.

I absolutely loved living 3 months at 89 Station. The house is pretty, modern and safe. Rentaroom is always ready to help whenever there’s a problem in the house. I met the most amazing people and made the best friends in this house. The only ‘bad’ thing is that the living room is pretty small for a house with 12 people, having more couches would definitely be better. Also, there’s not really a table where you can eat your meal all together so we did have to adjust to that at first. It is still manageable though. Observatory is a great place to stay for young internationals and rentaroom is a great place to be if you wanna make friends. I had an awesome time and made the best memories in 89 Station so I would highly recommend rentaroom and especially this house.

My stay with Rent-A-Room was a great option long term. They had a variety of houses to choose from and were very flexible with move-in and move-out dates. It allowed me to meet new people and form a community here in Observatory.
