I was looking for an inviting quiet place for a longer stay for several weeks where I can cater myself. The offers for Cape Town are countless. I did a detailed research. But Ruth's place was always within my favourites. Finally I dediced to stay there and it prooved: my choice was right.
Ruth's apartment is the perfect place to stay: Inviting, like new, useful small kitchen. The outstanding and unique feature: It is a place in a relaxing tranquility. I slept perfectly. It has a wonderful view into a pool garden sourrounded with lush green. You have the garden mostly for your own. And there is sun the whole day. It was always a pleasure to return back after a day tour. It was tempting to stay there for the whole day and not to leave for a new tour.
Other advantages: in walking distance many main supermarkets, cafes and restaurants, perfectly connected to several lines of mycity buses, parking space beside or close to the house. Inviting residential area right below the mountain Lion's Head.
And the host: Ruth is the perfect host who opens her house with the airbnb spirit to other people: inviting, warmhearted and helpful with useful travel informations, I at once felt like home.
My conlusion: I just can recommend Ruth's place, both for short and long stay.
