I really enjoyed staying at Tessa's place, and would definitely stay there again as well as recommend it.
The location was great: easy walking distance to shops and restaurants, as well as short bus or uber ride to major Cape Town attractions.
The place itself was also great: spacious and had touches that were really useful like usb ports in the wall.
Tessa herself was a great host and cooked a lovely dinner for me while I was there - made me feel very welcome!
