I am greatful to Zayyaan to have allowed me to check in earlier than the given time; it helped a lot. The apartment is very close to the CTICC (literally just down the street) and some very good shops and eateries (most closed on Sundays). It was especially nice to have wonderful food stores and restaurants (some of which open at 7 am already) on my doorstep for a fresh bite and some good cuppa before my conference in the morning.
Apart from that, the apartment is neat, but don't expect any luxuries or spoils. The building was extremely noisy at night. The slightest sound outside or in other apartments echoed throughout the building, it seems. I barely slept due to this.
Though the space is tastefully decorated, some elements in the apartment need a bit of updating, like the broken/missing blinds in the living space and the walls could do with a fresh touch of paint. Also, please note that the DSTV is a very basic bouquet.
Sad to say, but I was very unpleasantly surprised by the apartment block, and the apartment itself was close to average. Zayyaan, though, was the perfect host and responded quickly and effectively whenever I needed help with something.
