No prior mention was made of the twice daily load shedding that occurs in Cape Town. It that meant the apartment was without any power or lighting for four hours each day.
We were however shown the kitchen facilities - which couldn’t be used in the morning or evening! Not provided with any emergency lighting, in fact we were in unexpected pitch darkness in an unfamiliar apartment. It was potentially dangerous.
Despite regular contact attempts we heard nothing from the owners between Saturday and Tuesday when they eventually provided battery lights.
