This place is fantastic, a lot of space, beautifully furnished, stylish, very very nice (exactly like the photos). The area is very central and lively, some people not familiar with South Africa might it confronting, but there is security everywhere. Expect beggars around the property, but they are not threatening and we felt safe. The advantage of staying here is that a lot of stuff to do is easily walkable and your get to see a cross-section of society in Cape Town, not just foreign tourists / affluent people. I loved it and would definitely stay here again. Check in was a bit confusing as you are not communicating directly with the person who checks you in .
