Airstream Problems
This was our second night in the hotel. We decided to rent an Airstream on the roof because it would be fun and different. We rented the small Bambi trailer with the outside bath. The first issue was the outer door to the Airstream wouldn't lock, so people could come into our bathroom when we weren't inside the trailer. That wasn't a big deal. The problem we had on the 2nd floor room was no internet and construction noise. The internet worked great in the Airstream because the bar is upstairs. So, upon going to bed, one side of the bed was all wet. I assumed it was from the AC. I told the staff and they did relocate us to a room on the 3rd floor because they couldn't find the key to the other vacant Airstream. The room on the 3rd floor was nice and roomy. I did ask for a partial refund because we had issues with both our nights staying here. The reception said they were going to speak with the manager and get back to me. That was 6 hours ago and I haven't received a response. Again, its a cool hotel but it needs to be managed better

Construction happening!
The hotel is nice. They are in the process of building a new restaurant on the 2nd floor. So, from 7am to 8pm it sounded like someone was drilling through our wall! Plus, the wifi didn't work on our room. We had to go to the bar on the roof for wifi. We are staying in an Airstream on the roof tonight, so see my next review

Better than expected
Having had someone from Granddaddy use my booking data and try to scam me to pay again a few weeks before I arrived, I wasn’t full of hope. I still don’t think the hotel has resolved this to my satisfaction. However, once there we had a good stay. The room was comfortable and clean, the staff very helpful and courteous and the hotel I very well positioned. The roof top bar is a lovely place to relax.

Grandest Grand Daddy
Grand Daddy has a wonderful atmosphere all its own with its friendly staff and rooftop trailer park and bar. I enjoyed peeking into the amazing Airstream accommodations up on top of the 7-story historic building before retiring into my very comfortable conventional hotel room. Breakfast in the morning was outstanding, fresh, and offered many choices. Staff were extremely helpful in advising how to get around alone in Capetown. A great spot!

Quirky Airstreams
Stayed in the quirky airstreams as a solo traveller. Was nice, although a little loud as it was right next to the rooftop bar. Saying that, music does stop by 9pm. Was a nice hotel
