“In my opinion, what sets this Cape Town accommodation apart is its tranquil garden setting with mountain views, coupled with the convenience of free private parking-a notable advantage. The shared kitchen and lounge encourage a social atmosphere, while the focus on breakfast variety accommodates diverse preferences. Its location is ideal for those seeking proximity to both Robben Island Ferry and the V & A Waterfront.”
