Birgit's place is fantastic, great location (3 mins walk to the beach and restaurants), very spacious, wonderful view from the upper floor, very comfortable.
I can definitely echo other people comments, this place is great and it would be my choice if i come back to Capetown.
The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because we had some issues in the kitchen, the first 2 nights we had bugs and that was not pleasant. I discussed the problem with the owner and she was very responsive, she had the housekeeper coming 2 days in a row to help and she even offered a partial refund as a compensation.
I can definitely recommend this place and i must say I'm also been impressed by the owner's efforts to make sure your stay is top quality.
