I would not recommend this unit until the snags are fixed and definitely don’t recommend the managing agent.
The unit itself is at a great rate and when fixed up will be great BUT it had a number of issues that were not sorted out for the duration of my stay. I was in Cape Town for business.
The toilet was not fastened on the one side, kept on shifting. This was not attended to for the duration of my visit. The next big issue was the first window in the bedroom had no blinds, they were in the cupboard. This meant there was no privacy in the evening if the light was on in the bedroom from the adjacent building. Absolutely unacceptable!
It took two days to get a response from the agent and she could not understand that I could not communicate on Airbnb app as I was a corporate booking. She would not give me updates and did not call back when promised, it was very frustrating. She did eventually send a handyman to the unit and told me 15 minutes before he was due to arrive so I could not be there which was exceptionally poorly managed. They removed the blind from the lounge to replace the bedroom and never replaced it. Said he would return, he did not and she never followed up.
There was maintenance to the lifts for most of my stay and maintenance on the 7th day (drilling) during the day on the 13th floor which was not declared.
The check out process is not easy if you are using the basement parking. It involves finding parking in Adderly street, ensuring no luggage is visible and going into the building to place the keys in the locker. If not leaving early in the morning or late evening this may require 20-30 minutes.
Some upsides: really well priced the Wifi was great, kitchen well stocked with utensils, lovely bathroom and living areas. The unit is in a good position for working in town.
