We really enjoyed our stay at Lance's place. The property is located in a central well known area. Everything you need is within walking distance- grocery store, drug store, fast food, restaurants, bars and shopping. The beach is right down the street which is on the promenade, great for work outs or the city's breathtaking sunsets. In regards to safety, as women travelers we felt safe in the area. Everyone was nice and helpful. The property itself looks just like the pictures, I have never seen a place so clean. We felt at home right away. There is even a towel warmer! The apt is filled with modern decor and brand new appliances. Lance, was the perfect host! He was available to meet us upon arrival, he had a welcome booklet with helpful information regarding the city. He also had guidebooks available for us to read. During our trip he checked on us to make sure we were having a good stay. He was very responsive when I messaged him. We enjoyed our stay at Lance's home and are looking forward to staying again when we visit Cape Town!!
P.S. When using Uber I would use your pick up location as Life Church, sometimes the Uber driver had a hard time finding the building. However Life Church is right across the street from the building and is a well known landmark in the area, so it's easy to find.
