Before you think about booking another place, don't. This is it. I stayed here for 5 days and it was incredible with just the apartment views alone. Comfy bed, hot showers, nice appliances and clean place, made for a great week overall. It's a short walk into town (just a couple of minutes..downhill) and a fair uphill walk coming back. There is a security guard team on standby at all times while in the area - I accidentally set off my alarm in the apartment and they responded within 2 minutes asking if I was okay. Just a warning - there is load shedding all over South Africa. The power periodically goes out a few times a day for a few hours. Didn't bother me too much. Lavinia is very understanding, fair and responsive host. Her team saw fit that I experience a trouble-free stay. She is easily reached and gave me great recommendations about what to expect in Cape Down. Will definitely book this apartment again if I visit. Thank you!
