We stayed at Laurene’s apartment for 10 days and would strongly recommend staying there. It’s beautifully furnished and clean as in the photos and was the perfect base to explore Cape Town. Upon arrival Laurene met us at the apartment and talked us through the basic items there. We had got there slightly ahead of our check in time so it made a huge difference that we could go straight to the flat after a long flight and settle in. The security at the apartments were very polite, friendly & helpful throughout our stay, and it was reassuring to have them there if you were going into the building late at night.
We had breakfast at the apartment every morning, so it was great to arrive with some basic provisions such as milk, butter, tea & coffee etc already in the kitchen. The kitchen was also well stocked with glasses, cutlery & cooking utensils to be able to make a meal there should you wish to. There was Netflix available, though we didn’t use it much, and we experienced no problems with the wifi. The bed was very comfortable and there is lots of wardrobe space which is great. The only thing I would mention is that being in the inner city, it tended to be quite noisy outside the apartment late at night or early in the morning. This wasn’t a problem for us, as we’re used to a bit of noise outside, however if you are a light sleeper it might be good to be aware of this.
We travelled everywhere by Uber, which was super cheap and easy to use as the apartment is so central, table mountain was only about 10 mins drive away. If you’re going out to eat I would highly recommend societi bistro and the black sheep for dinner, they were our favourite restaurants and are quite close to the apartment :)
