We booked Ella's place as it was well priced and very central to where we wanted to be - although we had a car, we ended up walking everywhere we wanted to be and when we wanted to go out in the evenings, Uber was always a couple of minutes away.
Ella's apartment is tastefully decorated and catered to what we needed. She helped us with recommendations for local eateries and the Deli down stairs was just what we needed after the morning after a late night out.
The beautiful stroll along the promenade took us straight to Seapoint and all it's attractions we wanted to see. We also walked to the Greenpoint stadium for an event, and felt safe when walking there as well as back later in the evening.
There are loads of pubs, coffee shops and restaurants in the area, more to do than can ever be done in a weekend, that's for sure!
