I knew nothing about Cape Town before our stay in a week in this apartment in the Gardens area. Luckily, we hit upon a nice place. The kitchen was well appointed with Bosch appliances. It is on a main road but the noise didn't bother us much; the bedrooms are in back and there was only some regular apartment noise from upstairs. There was a minor leak. Everything went as planned with excellent security. We appreciated the washer. If we return we would stay there again. Thanks Tanya and Salome!
