As a collective we booked 2 apartments in cape town, both in Woodstock. This was the better of the 2 apartments we stayed in. It was as described and the security was a much higher standard (card only access to and in the lifts). Also the fact that the lift still worked during load shedding was a positive. It's a well thought out building and Perch, as a company, does a really good job of hosting guests. They are responsive and helpful and easy to communicate with, the building itself is run well and the convenience of having a mini supermarket downstairs and restaurant and bar is a wonderful touch. Although the back streets may look a little scary, for some, you have to remember that Woodstock is a little further out from central cape town. The included parking is nice and safe and secure. The Woodstock exchange across the road is also nice and the weekend market, which is close by, is also nice. I'd highly recommend this place and honestly would actually stay here again!
