Very clean and safe, great location. Walking distance to most everything; one block from Main Road, restaurants, shops and two blocks to the oceanfront promenade. I felt completely safe here, there is a locked gate to get into the parking lot, a locked security gate to get into the stairwell and another locked security gate on both the front door and the back door. The apartment is on the 3rd floor (4th floor for Americans) and there is no lift (elevator) which was not an issue for me but may be for some. Once inside the apartment it is perfectly safe to have windows and the sliding glass doors to the balcony open day and night. The balcony has (obstructed) views of the ocean and of Robben Island and I spent most of my time at home on the balcony. I found it a wonderful place to read, eat meals and just relax and look out at the ocean ahead and the mountain behind. Andrew and Katie are very responsive if you need anything. Restaurants I would recommend are Mykonos (Greek/Mediterranean) and Posticino (Italian) ; both a 5-minute walk. For grocery store, Spar and Woolworths are best; Woolworths has good quality and is about a 15-minute walk and also has everything else you need (clothes etc) as it is a department store too. Spar is a little further but is also walkable (about 20 minutes-or a mile away) and has a big kosher selection. Garage parking is available at both Spar and Woolworths and they validate the parking ticket. Street parking is available everywhere. V&A Waterfront is a short drive away (10 minutes). I recommend visiting the Oranjezicht City Farm Market which is at the Waterfront on Saturdays and Sundays for breakfast or lunch, organic produce and many local traders. For hiking ( I hiked Table Mountain on the Kasteelspoort trail with a guide) I recommend Table Mountain Treks and Tours (http://www.tablemountaintrekstours.com/); my experience was absolutely memorable and they pick you up and drop you back at the apartment. Hout Bay Harbour Market is also a great thing to do on a weekend with live music and lots of local traders and a beautiful drive (less than 30 minutes away https://www.bayharbour.co.za/. I stayed at Andrew's apartment for 3 weeks and would absolutely stay here again; great location; great hosts; spacious, clean and quiet one-bedroom apartment.
