I haven't stayed at RED in Cape Town, but based on my stays in two other locations, I was very disappointed with the concept. Their idea of offering millennial-friendly is throwing away many services and features that millennial don't want (which would be ok) but not replacing them with any new stuff (which is not ok) They are simply charging the same for less, in a hospital-like sterile design. From all hotel brands aimed at young people I've tried so far, this was the worst. Interestingly enough, I've been to Blus that were much more youth-friendly (Riverside Gothenburg is a prime example of how to do it).
