I stayed at Matthew's apartment for 1 month and I am so pleased I managed to secure a spot there. I felt safe walking around as a woman and it's a great distance to the heart of Cape Town. Matthew is extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. He also has 2 lovely dogs who were very friendly and added that extra layer of protection.
The apartment was super cute and was cleaned weekly.
If there was one thing I would change it would be that there wasn't a wardrobe but Matthew was very accommodating and allowed me to move books on some shelves to put my clothes out. Tamboerskloof is such a cool area and has felt the safest area I've lived in since being here. Matthew is a really wonderful host.
