Andrea Ankers
Having been built in early 1950, this building and apartment is full of character & charm. Easy to live in, with lovely items we have collected along our travels, a little bit African and a little bit foreign. Easy to walk in the neighborhood, to parks and towards our beautiful Table Mountain . Government Avenue along the Parliament Buildings with a lovely Restaurant. Some Restaurants within walking distance. Sit and chill with a glass of local wine and just take in the Mountains and views.
We just love meeting guests, and having a chat and interacting with common interests. Hearing about where they are from, and what brought them to SA. Exchange hosting experiences, as some might even be hosts themselves. We aim to make guests comfortable and their stay as memorable as can be . Our home is a Home Stay accommodation, and not a hotel, therefore it is a "home away from home" for guests, so we know we can trust you to respect and leave our home as you found it. Please advise us immediately if something is malfunctioning, so we can attend to this immediately. We thank you in advance. There is ample information in your room, but feel free to ask us , if your require any help. Enjoy you stay with us.
