Positive Highlights: the premises of the apartment are amazing, it is huge with a living room so big you could do a holiday on ice on it. The toilets and kitchen are fully equiped with everything you need . Despite the negative points below, it is close to most touristic spots and really convenient when it comes to restaurants (it is just close to green market square) grocery shops open till late, supermarkets etc.
Negative Highlights: We were 5 and were given just one set of keys even though i'd asked for two before travelling. After complaining we were given another set the following day but the 2nd one would only work on the outside doors, the magnetic card needed to go upside by lift didn't work, so we had to be permanently arranging one to open the door or to call the lift for one another.
The street is in a dodgy region of the city, and, even though during the day it is ok, by night is full of drug dealers and beggars that follow you till exhaustion. Downtown Cape Town has decayed a lot since the last time I went to CPT, neighbouring Long Street, for example, is no longer a bustling place to go out by night but it is now the playground of violent gangs. Since the apartment is on a pedestrian only street, it irequires a short stroll through a "The Walking Dead" scenario till you get an uber.
Last but not least, the wi fi was so terrible we needed to buy double the data we had calculated in the beggining and the floor is kinda slippery.
