1. The photos are very accurate; we really loved the open plan spacious apartment. The view of Table Mountain is breathtaking! The bed is really comfortable. The apartment has everything you need, including good uncapped WiFi. With the beauty of Cape Town you won't need the TV - we did not miss it during the 10 days we were there!
2. Janina is an excellent and thoughtful host, and we could ask her anything about Cape Town. She was not just a 'host' but also a friend. We felt very secure knowing that we could ask her anything.
3. The location is really in the city centre, in close proximity to the Company Gardens, is on a street parallel to Long Street. Breakfast and coffee places are a-plenty, with Lola's, St George's Mall, and Yours Truly nearby. There are several MyCiti bus stations within a few meters and is also very accessible via Uber. I was attending a conference at the CTICC and this was a good place to stay at. CTICC was a short Uber ride, or 4 bus stops away. If I weren't in heels I would have walked to CTICC.
4. Do know that being close to Long Street, during the weekends there may be party people spilling over to this street, walking around noisy at night, or that there may be cars running around blasting loud music. Being a heavy sleeper, this did not bother me, but potentially an issue for light sleepers - earplugs may help. On weeknights it should not be an issue.
5. Overall, we loved our place and it was truly a home away from home. :)
