Staying at Alen's place is almost like staying at home or with a good friend. The attention to details ... handwritten welcome note, real plants in the apartment, candles in the bathroom, linen scary for the cupboards, chocolate on the bed with the rolled up towels next to it and the fact that Allen lives in the same building, gives you the assurance that there is always someone close should anything happen or should you have questions.
Maybe together with the broom, it would be good to have a small brush and tray to gather the rubbish and cigarette buds on the balcony. Which the strong winds brought to me ... loose plastics and the neighbours cigarette buds.
The surrounding area is filled with restaurants, of which Videa Coffee is a good stop for early breakfast and Weylandt is next door with an excellent kitchen. It was all very convenient, 7 minutes away from the Waterfront and Oranjesicht Market. It was a very positive experience in Cape Town and will send this link to this apartment to friends and family.
Much appreciated,
Namaste,
