First, Marie is an outstanding host. She was flexible with my check-in and check-out and was very kind and responsive throughout the whole process! She even stocked up the fridge with milk, juice, and wine!
When it comes to the apartment, it is much much nicer than it looks in the pictures. It is extremely spacious and very nicely (and modernly) decorated. It has all the amenities to make guests feel at home. The apartment gets a lot of light and has a somewhat obstructed view of Devil's Peak and Table Mountain.
The neighborhood is quirky, and busy during weekdays; there are plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance. The neighborhood is in a great location: driving time to town is 8 minutes or so, to observatory is 5 minutes and under 10 minutes to University of Cape Town. I used Uber to get around and most of these trips cost under R35 (USD 3).
I would definitely stay here again.
