Here is an honest review...good and bad!
I own a lot of rental units....and am a very experienced landlord.
Here is the good:
1). Hosts were really helpful with what to do in Capetown. They communicate very well and very quick.
2). Close to waterfront
3). Nice underground parking with good access.
4). Light and bright
5). Nice kitchen and all appliances
6). Good security.
7). Decent view
8) Hosts left good wine and coffee for us...nice touch!
Here’s the bad:
1). Super noisy street all night from racing cars and people yelling.
2). Tenants upstairs made a lot of noise all day/evening.
3). The light curtains made it seem daytime all night. If you need dark to sleep...bring something to cover the windows.
4). Dirty windows ruined the view in the living room.
5). The shower was broke when we arrived...it sprayed water all over bathroom. It took 2 days to get it repaired. We were paying full price for a unit without a working shower.
6). The bedding had pee stains on it. We didn’t realize it until after we had used it. YUCK!!!.
7). The internet was super slow...sometimes non-existent.
8). They have Apple TV...no good local tv ...especially with poor internet.
9). The oven gaskets need repair to be able to use.
10). The sleeper sofa seemed like it was broken down in the middle....very uncomfortable and hard to sit on.
11). You can’t use the tub for baths because of water restrictions. The tub is hard to get in and out of because of the depth of it. Their are no grab bars for safety in a slippery tub.
This could be a very nice unit with some maintenance. The way it is...it’s over priced. You can find better value elsewhere.
