Firstly, the apartment is literally in the center of Cape Town and surrounded by so many lively and interesting places including restaurants, markets, and bars. Marina is also a wonderful host. She was extremely responsive to inquiries even prior to booking, accommodating of our earlier arrival time, and lovely upon our arrival (making coffee, orange juice, and providing refreshments). When we got there, she sat down with us and told us about some great things to do and places to go during our stay. She even invited us to an event with other couch surfers where we met some amazing people. Overall, 10/10 experience and if I ever make it back to Cape Town I know where I'll be staying!
