Great apartment, use street smarts and caution in the neighborhood. I could write volumes about our stay in Cape Town, it was an experience to say the least. If I was traveling to Cape Town again I would not stay in this area. However, should you enjoy this very clean and stylish apartment, pop a load of your travel weary clothes in the convenient washer and dryer and head up the hill towards Bree and Kloof Street. This is the best direction to explore, some wonderful shops. Two blocks toward Bree Street there is a wonderful vegetarian restaurant, Plant, great for breakfast and dinner. Also if looking for a great dinner joint (or alternative location) check out Sea Point and El Burro for dinner. Who knew we would travel all the way from California to Cape Town and enjoy two amazing mexican food restaurants. Thank you Simon for hosting a good and affordable AirBnB apartment!
