We were there for little more than a week in December, the beginning of summer. The apartment was very hot, no air, and the air con was apparently designed to make noise and not cool air. We asked for an extra fan as sleeping was replaced with sweating, but the host could not provide one. The apartment, though very small, is really dark at night as there are no sufficient lamps. We asked for juste one extra lamp, to place in the kitchen, in order for us to see what we were doing while cooking and not cutting our fingers instead of carrots, but the host kept on asking questions about where we'd like to put the extra lamp - until we abandoned the idea to see each other at night. So if you don't like sweating in the dark like us, you should find another nest in Cape Town.
