Nicola is everything you want from a great AirBnB host: friendly, communicative, informative, and welcoming. She really went the extra mile to make our (two night) stay as pleasant as possible, most notably accommodating our request for both an early check in and late check out (we had an evening flight so not having to cart our luggage round on our last day was really appreciated). She made time in her busy life to share wine and stories with us, which again was much appreciated. Nicola's apartment is comfortable, spacious, tastefully decorated, and very, very clean. There's lots of good places to eat (and drink) in Woodstock, but you also have a proper kitchen should you wish to cook for yourselves. The apartment combines having a quiet, safe, residential location, with being only a short walk from Woodstock's many shops, cafes, restaurants and bars, as well as public transport into town. I would wholeheartedly recommend both Nicola as a host, and her apartment as a place to stay in Cape Town.
