    We had a 2 night stay in Lebos. The staff were all super helpful and friendly. Room and shared bathroom was spotlessly clean. Loved the cooked meals - so delicious. Really enjoyed the social / bar areas as well - good space to relax and meet new...

    Everything was perfect. Very good accomodation in Soweto, very nice staff, typical "hostel" atmosphere, nice dinner/breakfast, and amazing 4-hour bike tour of Soweto with Siya. Thanks!!!
