I first want to say the host -Carl - is excellent throughout, always available and welcomed us warmly to the place and to Cape Town. What you pay for in this place is the location of the flat (proximity to the beach, to the sea point 'vibe', the view from the flat) and the friendly host, wifi and Netflix. Due to the apartment being a part of a block of flats and not a hotel - there were a few things which were not optimal (the state of the parking area, its dark and a bit dodgy just outside, the lift is dark and smells a bit damp) and the bathroom is dated. However, I think for the price its a good place to stay for a short holiday/getaway and we had a good time.
