For a start, there is no shuttle from Johannesburg Intl airport to the hotel, a service which all other hotels supply. Then they do not tell you that the taxi they order is for your own pocket. The shower in the hotel room was leaking water onto the floor. Paint chipped off from the walls. No breakfast included, thats another R120 pp. Will not go back there again.

I will not lie and say this is an excellent hotel. You are looking at this hotel because your finances are probably tight. This hotel gives you value for money no doubt. For the price you probably won't get better. Staff was friendly and helpful. Security over the top - but better safe than sorry. My gripe is with their breakfast. It was bland for me. Hope this helps you and the hotel.

I had a good stay at the hotel. It was clean and the staff very professional. The shuttle service was on time and very friendly. What kept me smiling the whole time was the welcome note left in my room by staff. Thank you 🙏❤️

The room was small but very clean and comfortable. However, we were on the 1st floor near the front desk, and it was very noisy. Getting the shuttle from the airport to the hotel was very difficult. Once we did get a driver, he was very good.

Not a bad stay but beds are terribly hard,like sleeping on a plank. Air-conditioning did not work and security gate through ealrly hours of the morning when opened and closings made a hughe screeching noise. Other than that a easy basic stay for an overnight.
