Honestly very disappointed as a regular customer. I’ve been coming here many times, but the repeated rude and disrespectful attitude from the counter staff makes me feel unwelcome and not valued. If I had another option, I wouldn’t choose to come back. Everyone deserves respect, and I hope this is taken seriously. :::💔😭

Terrible location. Very limited parking. Snotty staff greet you. Bar prices for the wealthy or tourists. Clientele some days non existent...other bafoons that get too drunk and take glass into the steamroom. And just skeezy ppl. But at least the venue exists, otherwise Cape Town would be lacking this kind of place. So 5 stars for effort and one star for its execution.
