Perfect stay for a couple in the heart of Cape Town.
Had all the necessities for a couple. Easy instructions from the host for access and very neat and clean. Very pleased with our stay.

Initially, we got terribly lost, but apart from that - what a delight and gem!
Quite enjoyable, with easy access to restaurants, shops and a safe, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean flat - with all the necessities and more - clearly lots of thought given to the visitors' stay and comfort. The warm towel railing, the large screen TV, aircon, orthopedic bed and pillows - beautiful views - gorgeous shower and plush fittings, room scents and teas and coffees, privacy and in the city yet cocooned from the city - will definitely return - and absolute value for money. The host tried to respond when contacted and provided info as best they could and within time frames that were possible - questions and queries were attended to with grace, professionalism and courtesy.
It was conveniently close to the CTICC, neat and clean.
It would be helpful if there was a manual on how the microwave works, how the TV works, what the WiFi code is. I had to figure it out myself. The area is noisy at night, but that's not something the unit can fix. I didn't have a card for the front door, and it couldn't be sorted out during the period of my stay. The water also stopped working on the last night, and it wasn't fixed - it was unpleasant not being able to shower or use the toilet.
Dit was gerieflik naby die CTICC, netjies en skoon.
Dit sal handig wees as daar 'n manual is oor hoe die mikrogolf werk, hoe die TV werk, wat die WiFi-kode is. Ek moes dit maar self uitwerk. Die area is raserig in die aand, maar dit is nie iets wat die eenheid kan reël nie. Ek het nie 'n kaart vir die voordeur gehad nie, en dit kon nie uitgesorteer word gedurende die periode van my verblyf nie. Die water het ook opgehou werk op die laaste aand, en dit is nie herstel nie - was onaangenaam om nie te kan stort of die toilet te gebruik nie.

Horrible stay & poor customer service ever received in my life!!!
Horrible stay ever! I travel quite frequently and have been using the website for the past couple of years. The website and their hosts are usually responsive and send the required information ahead of time. On the day of check-in, I usually get a message in the morning with all the necessary details, including key codes, directions, or specific instructions. Two days before, I had booked in Stellenbosch and received all the information in the morning.
At 71 Trafalgar, I did not receive any information from the host, save for a confirmation message from the website. Upon arrival, I spent hours trying to find the building (31b Herengracht St). Along the road, all numbers followed each other chronologically except for this building. When I finally found the building, I was very ill-received by the reception, not knowing things were going to get even worse with the host.
After calling the website and being put on hold for a while, I was given a host number. Upon calling the number, the lady said she was not the host but a co-host and did not understand why I was calling her. I explained my situation and that this was the number I was given by the website. She then indicated that I was fighting and hung up on me, and thereafter sent me a message at 18:45 with directions, instructions, and the access code, which should have been sent in the morning for me to check in at 14:00.
On Sunday, after checking out, I realised I had left my new dress in the wardrobe. I called her and she cut my call. I sent a WhatsApp text at 13:00 and she responded with the two-hands-clapping emoji. Every time I tried to call, she cut my calls. I sent a follow-up message at 18:30 and thereafter drove to the building, and the receptionist referred me back to the host.
On the 2nd of March, the following day, I sent another message at 10:51 with no response, drove to the building, and got the same message from the receptionist.
Just make the best of it.
The place is beautiful, but for the type of finish, the cleanliness and maintenance is shocking. The host is unprofessional. The parking information is misleading. It was drama to get a code for the door. We were not able to get any help for the so-called safe parking and the car just had to stand in the street.
Maak maar die beste van die saak.
Die plek is pragtig, maar vir die tipe afwerking is die netheid en instandhouding skokkend. Die gasheer is onprofessioneel. Die parkeringinligting is misleidend. Dit was drama om 'n kode vir die deur te kry. Ons was nie in staat om enige hulp te kry vir die sogenaamde veilige parkering nie en die motor moes maar in die straat staan.
