If there's one thing you want in a guest house near the airport it's a good night of sleep. Unfortunately, I didn't get it here. Between not having bed nets (I was woken up early hour by mosquitoes), the rooms being located right next to the parking lot, and noisy guards discourteously talking outside my door, I was disappointed in...

We stayed here for 2 nights. The location is great and room size is adequate but the facility isn't very well maintained. The first room we were allotted had a broken bathroom door and it took a while to get an alternate room. Parking facility is safe and available right in front of the rooms. Food is good and the...

The room itself was... More

Cons: - You might find yourself in the auxiliary area across the street, which feels a little less secure. - Baggage storage completely unsecure. - Lots of little things wrong with room: patio light didn't...

I stayed here just for 1 night as I got to Joburg 1 night earlier than planned. The service was good and we had complimentary breakfast buffet also. The room was huge! The bathroom was huge! The bed was way too soft. Felt like the springs popper so I sunk all the way down. :( The rooms all have separate... More
