A few things to know before you book:
1. Judy is an incredibly communicative host. You are in good hands.
2. If there is loadshedding, expect to walk up 6 flights of stairs.
3. If there is loadshedding, expect cold water when you shower.
4. If there is loadshedding, the restaurant under the apartment has a loud generator. It will sometimes stay on until the early hours of the morning.
I had a ‘staycation’ at Judy’s place while I was in-between homes. It was ideal in size and close to where I work which was great.
This place would be great for city slickers, or travellers who want to be in the buzz of the city. You are about 200meters from one of Cape Town’s most popular bars, Van Hunks. You can clearly hear the festivities, but it quiets down around midnight.
When the blinds are open, it’s a lovely view of Kloof Street, the city skyline and Signal Hill.
The security staff of the building are incredibly helpful, and Judy is a message away.
