The apartment is in a great location. Don't be put off by the curb appeal. Cafes and restaurant on the main drag, one block away. I'm glad there was a parking space for my rental. I unfortunately arrived on a holiday and the hosts were flexible checking me in and out to accomodate my schedule.

The apt. itself was clean, open windows and light. If you are a tourist in Cape Town this would be the place. Definitely ideal for folks who won't spent a lot of leisure time in the apt. Not setup for chilling and cooking meals. Thank goodness the construction across the street didn't start earlier than 8 AM. As an FYI - This apparently will be going on for another 3-5 months. The internet that you have to pay for was a indeed a deal breaker not so much because of the money, but the constant drop in connection. I spent too much time calling the company and ended up in a noisy cafe to work.

A couple of things that would have made my stay comfortable:
- An extra lock on the door for safety instead of only using the key (my safety issue)
- Extra towels for my 1 week stay
