Ok.
O melhor do hostel é o staff. Friendly, helpful and happy. Localização é ok. Perto de vários bares e restaurantes. As instalações, pelo menos o meu quarto, eram ok, mas deixavam a desejar pelas fotos. Mas voltaria a me hospedar

Overall decent stay. There are nice kitchen facilities, but the showers have low water pressure and it’s hard to regulate the temperature. The bar downstairs can make it a bit noisy, but not too bad. Lots of good restaurants around the neighborhood.

Awesome staff & nice space
The staff was awesome--incredibly friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure that guests were taken care of, even to the point of providing an escort to walk me to the pickup point and wait with me for my tour bus. I enjoyed an excellent coffee at the bar in the morning on my final day. This hotel is very accommodating as far as luggage storage, and they also have safes for valuables. We did have an extended power outage, but this was not the hotel's fault. My room was spacious and linens clean. Overall, I was happy with the experience, despite being a bit disappointed that the area was not safely walkable for a solo tourist.

Curiocity and Maboneng are truly gems of Joburg
It's rare that I give perfect marks across the board, but Curiocity earned it! I booked 2-weeks at Curiocity via Hotels.com, and they put me in their sister hotel (12 Decades) right down the street. From what I gather, Curiocity is the hostel and 12-Decades is the hotel. I was absolutely impressed! The staff were great, the hotel itself was awesome (it is an art-themed hotel, and each room has a different motif), and the neighborhood is wonderful. Maboneng is an ultra-hip part of Johannesburg with great cuisine (PataPata, Ravioli, Soul Souvlaki, Bertrand's cafe) and a really cool vibe. I'm a bit of a straight-laced guy, but even I loved the bohemian feel of the area. The only con was that the wi-fi was sometimes difficult to connect to. I absolutely recommend Curiocity, and would stay there again in a heart-beat.

I had an amazing time at this hostel. Really clean and great staff. Beds are really nice and free WiFi is always great. Great okace to meet new people and go in tours in the city. But be warned as while the block it is on is really nice, the larger neighborhood I did not feel was very safe at all.

One of a kind
Fantastic artsy place, original and unique, as were all the rooms too. Very cool. Great locations with plenty of places to eat up and down the street. The side of our bedding wasn't the cleanest, as a booger was found, but given the overall cleanliness of the entire place and the rest of our room I'm chalking that up to an anomaly. I highly recommend for the creative rooms and uniqueness of them all.

Hostel que quer ser "moderninho"
Deixa muito a desejar, grupo de hóspedes que acham que é o dono do Hotel, gritam a noite inteira, sem a menor preocupação com os outros hóspedes, sem ação dos funcionários... Bairro que só funciona no fds...fora isso o lugar é morto....., não se pode caminhar em nenhuma outra rua do bairro, por questão de segurança (recomendação do próprio hotel)....

Such a great place, even bedbugs want to stay here
So the place is nice, the neighborhood is amazing - but I got bedbugs in one of the dorm... They did wash my clothes, they did change the bed in the room, so should be ok now. This happens I guess, but I would have appreciate a reimbursement of that night at least, as I spent about 9-10 days there!

Staff is very helpful about how to get around Johannesburg safely. Located in Maboneng which is a small area that is walkable during the daytime, hip and upcoming area with good restaurants. A great deal for the price, and many interesting people to meet!

Our room in the 12 Decades art hotel (booked through Curiocity) was fantastic, the staff was friendly and helpful and the food in the area was awesome. Great urban art and entrepreneurship in Maboneng!

Hidden Gem Hostel
My first experience staying in or near a hostel. The hostel had a hotel about a block away from the hostel that I stayed at and I was blown away! I ended up stay in 3 of the 12 themed rooms at the Decades Hotel. So beautifully decorated and thoughtful. The staff was friendly, accommodating, and all around amazing at the hostel and the hotel. I quickly felt right at home there! I couldn't have asked for a better experience staying a Curiocity Backpackers and the 12 Decades Hotel!

Tout était bien sauf les tours organisés par l'Auberge, la durée a été écourtée dans les 2 tours et rapport qualité/prix pas bon. Nous couchions au Decade soit à 2 coins de rue de la réception de l'Auberge lui-même, peut-être désagréable. Quartier OK, les terrasses bien.

Hostel para quem gosta de balada
No térreo e 1º andar deste hostel, funciona um bar noturno que fica lotado todas as noites até às 23 horas. Tem noite que é difícil vc conseguir entrar no hostel de tanta gente que fica obstruindo a entrada. Fiquei num quarto super pequeno com duas beliches. Não tem uma mesinha de apoio no quarto. Os beliches são bons porém quem fica na parte superior é bem prejudicado pois a escada é desconfortável e muito alta. Ao lado tem um bom restaurante italiano e a 50 e 100 metros tem 2 bons supermercados.
