The apartment was just as described and James was great at communicating both prior and during our stay.
The location was perfect for us and there are many restaurants, bars and grocery stores in close proximity. The V&A Waterfront is a 10 minute walk away and the MyCity buses into town or to Camps Bay and beyond run right past the apartment.
The road outside was quite noisy if on the balcony or with windows open but it didn't deter from our enjoyment. We did have a few issues which were annoying (shower didn't drain, TV lost signal, DVD player didn't play sound properly) but James sorted these out quickly.
On arrival James did warn us that there may be a few bugs in the apartment due to the drought but that he had instructed a pest control company to attend to resolve it. Unfortunately this was arranged for half way through our stay and the bugs turned out to be cockroaches which appeared on the kitchen floor and kitchen surfaces which was unpleasant to say the least. This got worse after the pest control visit as apparently the treatment causes the cockroaches out of their hiding places. We feel that the apartment should not have been rented out until the cockroaches had been eradicated.
Overall the apartment was very clean & very conveniently located & James was a good host but the cockroach problem was undesirable to say the least and did affect our enjoyment.
