Dot's place was situated in a very nice residential suburb. Pinelands is located nicely between the Cape Town CBD and Southern Suburbs. It is also fairly easy to get there from the airport. The flatlet was separate from the main house and stocked with everything you need to be self sufficient for a short stay. It was comfy, clean and private. Dot was also a warm and helpful host. I highly recommend her place if you are coming to Cape Town. It is very good value for money!
