Hi there, I stayed at Adam‘s place for 3 month during my internship in Capetown.
The location is perfectly located for a quick walk to the grocery store and a walk into the city. The area is quite and compared to other areas in and around Capetown fairly safe. It is a great place to meet new people and get your stay started! Especially if you are traveling alone this accomodation is the perfect place to stay.
The cleaning lady‘s are very helpful and do good work keeping the place clean.
The kitchen is a little worn down but you can still cook some meals if you are planning too (it works almost perfectly fine :) )
All in all I enjoyed my stay at Adam‘s place very much, great location, safe area, grocery store, city centre and lionshead/signal hill within a 5-15min walk reachable (signal hill may take 20min) .
Would definitely recommend, just be aware that there might be some insects running around outside the house, but you are planning to go to Africa, so expect some animals
:)
