This place was great! It couldn’t have been more centrally located for the places we wanted to visit, and was perfect for just walking around and exploring the city. The apartment is really cute and tidy and had everything that we needed. I told the hosts that I was visiting for my birthday and Andrea was wonderful in reaching out beforehand to help me with things to do. They provide an extensive list of great nearby restaurant suggestions, and other things like markets and convenience stores.
A few things to consider: 1) Cape Town has regularly scheduled power outages. So in addition to not having lights, WiFi or air conditioning, there are no elevators to use for this 9th floor flat. Naturally the power was out as we were checking out with all of our luggage. NOT the hosts fault, but something to be aware of. 2) The bathroom situation is clearly and accurately depicted in the photos. But keep in mind this could be an awkward situation if you’re rooming with someone that you’re not extremely close with. There is NO privacy, especially if someone is in the bed. Perhaps a good strategy is to book this with someone you WANT to be extremely close with. :-)
All in all, lovely apartment and lovely and responsive hosts. We loved Cape Town and hope to stay here again in the near future!
