I visited Mountain View Studio Apartment, not as a tourist, but as a Capetonian needing a temporary home, for me and my baby, while our home was being painted. 'At home' was how I was made to feel for the duration of my stay. I was welcomed warmly and Louie (Franki's mom) made it clear that she was available and willing to help should I need anything. The Apartment has magnificent Mountain views and is in a quiet, treed area. While the Apartment offers you peace, it is centrally located - 15 minutes drive to the city centre in one direction and 15 minutes to beautiful False Bay in the other direction. Franki and her mom are an amazing team and are natural hosts.
