“Annex Lodge & Spa struck me as a down-to-earth option in Cape Town, seemingly catering to those who prioritize value and proximity to the airport; its suburban location makes it suitable for quick business trips. I noted the spa, a welcome addition, and the shared kitchen hints at a more communal, home-like atmosphere. While the neighborhood is not the main attraction, the basics for a functional stay appear to be present.”
