Koos was kind enough to let me check in early and did his best to respond to the minor issues that came up during my stay. However, I found the apartment in a poorer state than I expected. The bedroom carpet was still drying out and there was a strong smell of damp which only cleared after a couple of nights. The pool was a huge highlight, but the lack of essential kitchen supplies (there was no coffee, dishwashing tablets, handwash liquid, salt or pepper) made it feel like corners were being cut.
