Cub's Home

Wonderful place 🤞🏿

The staff was friendly

It is far from most activities

The management of Cub home are absolutely wicked. The rooms as advertised was not what I was given. I paid what was given at a high rate due to the Mining Indaba conference taking place in Capetown at the time. However, they initially wanted to pput me in a room with shared restroom facilities, which I rejected on account of how much I paid. They finally gave me a private room, ensuite... however, I saw roaches in the room! The next day, the toilet flushing mechanism broke down, they had to call someone to fix it. The guy was left under the sun whilst waiting for hours for parts to fix the WC with, I had to give him some money for lunch by myself, seeing this elderly man look stressed. To make matters worse, after 3 days the management decided - without asking if I was extending my reservation to kick me out, stating that I had only paid for 3 days. I informed the man that I paid for 3 days because I was not sure of what I was coming to meet in terms of the facility, but I had cash to pay for the remaining days of my stay in CT. He refused, claiming he had already taken another booking and I had to vacate immediately even though I made it clear that Cape Town at the time had a scarcity of accommodation options due to the conferences taking place that February 2026. The man insisted I leave and when his wife tried to intervene having heard my counter arguments, he almost beat her up right in my front. I had to let him know that if he touches his wife, I will have no choice than to physically stop him. That was when he calmed down and kept shouting that I should leave or he calls the police. This was disheartening, annoying and an all-round waste of my resources (money and time). I felt disrespected and distressed over this situation. I really do NOT RECOMMEND CUBS HOME for anyone, only use it if you have no other choice.

The service from the host, the room had roaches and the way they take bookings regardless of if someone is already occupying the room and willing to extend + financially capable of extending, is absolutely shambolic.
