I rented this apartment with a colleague while in town for a conference at the UCT Business School. Rather than stay at the V&A waterfront area, we wanted opportunities to see other parts of Cape Town. So glad that we did! This is a comfortable apartment in a lively location. We easily walked to bars, boutiques and antique stores on Long Street, fabulous restaurants on Kloof Street, and outdoor cafes in Greenmarket Square. Always easy to find a taxi after hours. We rented a car for a day and were so thankful to have an indoor parking space so we didn't have to deal with the hassle of street parking. The building seemed secure with a rental office open during the day, and a security guard at night. The apt was renovated right before we arrived so all the furniture was new and the fully outfitted kitchen contained brand new appliances and anything you could possibly need for preparing meals. The bed was super comfortable, there are two bathrooms so we didn't have to share, and there were many seating options to choose from including a huge leather sofa in the living room, 2 eating areas, and a balcony. It was an incredible bonus to be the first to rent the place b/c everything was pristine. The apartment is not ideally set up for business travelers so that was one drawback for us. The internet connection was spotty so it was a challenge to use it for Skype calls, and for some reason our ipads and phones only occasionally found the signal. No desks so we worked at the large glass dining table when necessary. While this was a drawback, it wasn't a major problem b/c there is a terrific coffee shop called Lola's right on the corner with friendly servers, excellent coffee and free and reliable wifi. That became our de facto office when we needed to work. One true downside, however, is that the street is loud. Full stop. During the day there is traffic noise. At night there is party noise that doesn't seem to end. It didn't bother us too much b/c we weren't there during the day and I had earplugs so I slept soundly at night. It's something you should know though if you're sensitive to city noise. All in all, this apartment gets 5 stars because I can't imagine hosts as warm, accommodating, and conscientious as Brad and his wife Cheryl. Cheryl met us to personally deliver keys and greeted us with a hug and a bottle of bubbly! When we had problems with the internet, Brad offered to drive over with a signal booster and let us know that the issues would be fixed for the next renters. They purchased internet vouchers for us when we couldn't get back to the rental office in time. They promptly replied to any request and inquiry we made. I have no doubt that they will attend to each and every concern that any future renter...
