The Skinny Expat - Paarl - Self Catering Apartment

Very clean, well-equipped property. Very friendly and efficient host. Safe off-street parking. Easy to find, with shops and restaurants within walking distance.

The property is located next to restaurants and across the street from a bar. That’s great for dinner options and not for sleep. The noise levels made it impossible to sleep until after 1am. It was impossible to get the main bedroom dark. The blinds are inefficient and let in so much light from the outside that one can see everything in the room without turning on a light. The windows cannot close properly and rattle with the slightest breeze. The flat needs blockout curtains and double glazed windows. The noise and light make sleep impossible. A dark and quiet bedroom is unfortunately a non-negotiable.

Nice size for 4 person family.

Very noisy till very late at night.

Comfortable Beds, fully equipped,

Lot of noise coming from Bossas until 2 in the morning, hardly slept, To much light in flat at night, not dark enough for comfortable sleep.

Location, value for money, modern furniture, loved the wireless phone charging bedside table

We were a family of four, all adults, so was a bit cramped for space, especially when fourth bed was used (underneath third bed), should have booked the larger of the few properties in the same building. Lack of a dustbin in the kitchen-area is a bit of a hassle.

The apartment was absolutely lovely and fully equipped with everything you would ever need, including toiletries, washing Capsules, and even a hair straightener. It was very neat and clean, and beds were excellent. The manager Adele was also amazing.

Whilst we loved the apartment, the noise levels outside on the roadside, at night were not great at all.
