I was traveling to South Africa for work and decided to spend the weekend in Cape Town. It was my first visit to the city. Kyle's apartment is well-located, less than 15 min walk from the city center. It is clean, comfortable and nicely decorated, perfect for solo travelers or a couple. Because my stay in the country was over several days, I appreciated that I could use the washing machine and the drying rack. Buitenkant street is fairly quiet. It is perfectly fine to walk around during the day but definitely best to take an Uber in the evening. There is a small grocery store right across the building, and a slightly larger one two minutes away. Kyle's Dad, who welcomed me, is super nice and helpful. In terms of things to do, I recommend the free walking tours. I did the Bo Kaap one and it was very interesting, with a great guide. I also did a day trip to the Cape of Good Hope, including a visit to the penguins reserve, and highly recommend it.
