The Greenmarket studio was the perfect spot for me to spend five days in Cape Town as a solo traveler. The space was immaculately clean, and very comfortable. As other reviewers mentioned, this studio is in a busy area, and sensitive sleepers will need ear plugs, especially on the weekend. However, I was so busy during the day doing things around town, coming home to a comfortable bed made sleeping through the night a breeze.

I made sure to alert Alex, the flat manager, while at the airport and he was waiting for me upon arrival. He not only showed me around the flat, but gave me several tips on what to explore in the neighborhood.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Lorin, but when I had an issue opening the door of the washing machine, she stopped in the flat to fix it for me (with my permission), and laid my clothes out on the drying rack. This was the day before I left and I am grateful I did not have to travel with wet clothes back to the US! She was a very courteous host and left some goodies and a bottle of wine for me in the fridge. I would happily book this flat again when I make it back to Cape Town.
