Overall, Deon's place is your typical apartment. Not as new as the pictures display, but still adequate for our personal needs. The neighborhood was nice and seemed to be located in a safe area. Our drive to and from the museums and attractions were always about 20 minutes away. We had our own car and never used the Metro train or buses.
The only issue we had was with the folks that live directly above the apartment. When they walk it sounds like elephants walking around. The floors and walls of the apartment building are paper thin and you hear everything. Not easy to sleep in. It's just the way the building was built. Nobody's fault, just the way it is. Deon was very prompt in communicating when we had an issue with the noise. Although, the noise did not stop, Deon tried to rectify the problem by contacting his neighbors.
With that said, if you're looking for a cheap place to stay for a couple of nights, Deon's apartment is perfect.
