I stayed in this location for three weeks. It was very central for getting around to locations around Cape Town, and was fairly priced. I felt comfortable walking around solo during the day, but never went out at night. However, there were always inexpensive Ubers available in under 3 minutes. You can walk to multiple grocery stores and coffee shops. At night there were definitely sounds of people outside, but I didn't find it too noisy or need any white noise/earplugs.
