Lovely apartment with a beautiful view and nice balcony. Spotlessly clean. Spacious and well equipped, with lots of storage space. Friendly staff, and very easy to check in, get parking, etc. Nice area, with tons of nearby dining options within walking distance. Definitely recommend!

Mycket trevlig personal i receptionen
Blev hänvisad till fel apartment. Lyckligt att den rättte hyresgästen accepterade att bli tilldelad en annan, vilket annars hade betytt att vi fått packa ihop och flytta till ett annat rum.
Däremot faceigenkänning för att komma åt hissarna fungerade aldrig, trots flera omfotograferingar.

Schönes Hotel mit großartiger Aussicht über Kapstadt. Durch die zentrale Lage kann man unkompliziert alle Sehenswürdigkeiten in Kapstadt gut erreichen und findet nette Lokale in unmittelbarer Nähe. Zur Waterfront kann man zu Fuß gehen

Gorgeous apartment, very well equipped with lovely decor.
You have to check in before you can use the car park, so easier with 2 people
