We just wrapped up a weeklong stay and have a few pros and cons.
Pros:
- The location is fantastic. Walk to anything you need, enjoy the sunsets. The neighborhood is safe and super easy to get an Uber.
- The host is very responsive and happy to help.
- The housekeeper Nunu was great. Friendly and kept things clean.
Cons:
- The house is older and worn. The beds were all clean and comfortable but the living room furniture was very dirty and stained.
- There is no shower upstairs. Only a bath. The photos make it seem like there is a shower. The main floor shower didn’t drain, but Nunu was able to take a plunger to it and fix the clog.
- The stairs into the bottom room are difficult. Like going down a ladder. We had lots of bumped heads.
- Everything is just worn. All the cabinets and handles are loose, chairs are flimsy, the oven is crooked and didn’t work for us.
If you’re looking for a home base to sleep and explore Cape Town and the beach, then this is great. For the price it’s fair, but we wouldn’t book again.
