Although it is located right in the town, the area is very quiet. The restaurants and shops/malls are within walking distance and it is safe to walk around without any worries about being mugged. A bonus for those that like walking is that the Knysna Waterfront is also within walking distance. The apartment was spacious enough for a couple with all the necessary creature comforts. There is a laundry located downstairs for longer stays as well.

The front door needs adjusting, it needs a hard pull to open and must be banged to close it. The parking space was a nightmare to get in and out because of how it is situated.

The central location is 14km or less from all the sights and beaches. Apartment is ideal for a couple equipped with all the essentials to make a self catering stay comfortable.

"The property was great value for money but I was shocked by what has happened to Knysna."

7.0

Unfortunately Knysna in general has gone to the dogs and as a result the neighborhood was 3rd world at best however, the property is clean, well equipped for self-catering and great value for money.

Lounge furniture is old and worn out.
