My boyfriend and I had a great experience in Jean's city bowl apartment. The location is excellent: a few restaurants and an awesome coffee shop within a block, and a 10-15 minute walk to the main business and bar areas. Jean was very helpful in providing information about the neighborhood, and in coordinating logistics of arrival and departure. The apartment deck is a bit annoying since there's no real view and people from the upper apartments drop their cigarettes on it. But the building rooftop is gorgeous, including the view from the gym. The gym itself is very limited in terms of machines, but was super convenient to have there to not have to worry about finding/paying for/traveling to somewhere else to exercise. Security in the building is consistent and the main hall lights and elevators still work during loadshedding. Jean is a friendly and generally responsive host, so don't be afraid to call or email him if you need something.
