Overall satified.

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.

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.

Shouting people in halfways

The noise late in the night of people talking loudly in the halfways right in front og our room. We asked the guests to speak softer showed their arrogance to us and shouted and shouted even louder especially woman screaming. We are not racists, all we ask is respect. We are leaders of our tour group and went home here to see if wee could spend the night with our tour group here.

I had no problem with the hotel at all other then the TV which was not working properly. My main complaint was the payment for the shuttle bus. I was only told that their was a payment for the bus on the morning of my departure from the hotel, not before I boarded the bus or even when I checked into the hotel. I did not see a payment notification on the website. If there is one then please accept my apologies for the error.

Disgusting!

This was a HUGE let down! The hotel had no water from before we checked in and we were not told about it at check in. We could not flush the toilet or shower at all from check in to check out 18 hours later. We asked the staff for water to flush the toilet they said there was nothing! There were coffee marks on the bedside tables, the room had not been cleaned and the pillows had a terrible body odour smell. Do not waste your money, this was possibly the worst place we've ever stayed in.
