It’s a nice apartment, fully equipped and centrally located downtown Cape Town, lots of construction around and streets stay loud throughout the night. Not ideal for a woman alone, daytime is fine. The entrance is very tricky to find if driving as it’s on the pedestrian/vendor Mall. Took me awhile and the picture does not help at all.
Sadly my worst experience to date, with a host. Desiré put a new electricity meter in and did not top it up for my stay. She asked me to buy electricity a few hours before checking in. I don’t know the area at all and was working late, which was all communicated to her. She had time to come into the apartment and switch off the geyser prior to my stay, to save power, but she didn’t take the time to buy electricity?!? I left her with more electricity than when I arrived. She is argumentative and defensive.
Partial refund given thanks to AirBnB’s great customer service. This flat is on the lower cost scale for a reason. Give it a wide berth.
