A little bit of a disappointment. We selected the apartment for the pool and deck, and although we are aware that there is a water shortage, we were never notified that not only was the pool empty, but it was also absolutely filthy. We did message the host but received a very poor response. Just a note or a bottle of wine would have gone a long way. The balcony was also very dirty. Also, be warned that the walls are PAPER thin. We could hear the neighbor playing video games at 2am as if they were in the room. The building is also surrounded by a neon light that goes on at around 7pm and off at 7am and cannot be blocked out. Big issue: master bedroom outside door lock was broken and apartment could easily be accessed from other apartments via the front deck. The safe was also not working, even though we called, so we have a very volatile safety issue. Easy access to an apartment is a safety issue in South Africa. We were really excited to stay here and were happy to pay more for the facilities and left disappointed.
