Nicolas has a beautiful, well kept apartment and is a friendly host. He was helpful in finding and sharing information regarding transport, restaurants and places of interest. We had been under the impression though that we were renting an apartment and not only a private room. It would have been helpful in making a choice if we had known we would be sharing a bathroom with the host. We also confined ourselves to the room as Nicolas was working on his computer in the living room and we felt it would have been awkward and slightly rude to sit there and have conversations in Afrikaans. But the excellent location makes this worth considering.
