"Unfortunately, we were not satisfied with our stay and experience. 1. Communication: Booked through Hotels.com but messages were sent via Expedia, which did not upload, meaning we did not get the accommodation access code, which we had to chase. Unable to sent messages on Guesty app. 2. Sofabed very uncomfortable. Needs a bed topper. Bed frame did not open fully, I think due to damaged/deformed frame. 3. Main bed frame has wooden features at the end, which means you can hurt your shin or toe...

"For what you pay it’s extremely decent especially considering it is right on the seafront. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room itself was clean. The only downside is that even with the windows open there was no airflow but nothing can really be done for that. The shared bathroom was a little bit grubby but not bad."

When is the best time to go to Kemptown?
The best time to go to Kemptown is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its warmest and the area is at its most active.

For those who prefer a slightly quieter experience but still want good weather, late spring (May) and early autumn (September) are also excellent choices. The crowds are typically smaller, and the weather is still mild enough for walking and sightseeing.
