Andre's place is very lovely and spacious. There is a lovely selection of art on the walls, making the place feel homely and giving it a wonderfully colourful and creative feel.
It is right in the heart of the city, on Long Street where there are plenty of restaurants, bars and clubs. And walking distance from other popular streets, such as Loop and Kloof, offering a variety of culinary and drinking experiences.
The popularity of Long Street means it can be noisy in the evenings. But Andre thoughtfully provided ear plugs which made a big difference for those sleeping in the room that looks out onto the street.
There is one window in the lounge that doesn't have a curtain. This wasn't a major problem but a curtain might have helped to keep the noise out on a quiet night in.
The place was very clean. And Andre has literally thought of everything you might need, from a heater to an HDMI cable. The kitchen was also very well stocked, including a variety of teas and spices.
We had a very lovely stay! It was a great home away from home from which to enjoy city life in Cape Town.
