I was extremely surprised to find this modern gem in the Gardens area. Dont let the old building and the surroundings fool you, this is a place that you want to stay in. The view of Table Mountain from the front door is breathtaking and a short walk into town for the nightlife makes this an ideal location to stay in. The Checkers has everything you will need, once again dont let the old building fool you. Ryans apartment is a prime example of not judging a book by its cover.
