Nadia's sister met me when I arrived and showed me round (and her mother came round too, so I really felt a warm welcome into the family!) I met Nadia before I left and she was a super helpful and generous host, offering to get me anything I needed.
The flat is charming with fantastic views of Table Mountain on one side and gardens on the other. It is in a small residential block in a very quiet area and the neighbours were very nice too. Although there is no washing machine there is drying area in the garden and a laundromat very nearby.
The location is perfect. Tamboerskloof is a leafy, quiet and safe area but is also not far from the city centre and seafront, and a short walk to supermarkets, restaurants and bars in Kloof Street. if you don't have car the bus stop is at the end of the road and the bus takes you down to the city centre with onwards connections to other parts of the city, train station etc. In the other direction it takes you to the gorgeous Camps Bay and Clifton beaches.
