Some of the staff members were nice and some were reserved as if they didn’t want to be bothered and had no eye contact when I arrived at the reception desk when I would ask questions at the desk. Some of the staff made me feel welcomed. When I would order dinner, I ordered a cheeseburger with fries and I would tell them what I wanted or didn’t want and the order was incorrect. I’d say that I want cheese, tomato and mayonnaise, only. They’d put lettuce and cucumbers on it. Another night I ordered a chicken sandwich with cheese, no lettuce. They put lettuce, tomatoes, they didn’t put cheese on it. So after the second night, I just had food delivered and the order out food was correct. There must have been a baseball tournament for boys for 7 years old to teenagers. 3 nights in a row the teenagers were banging the doors in the room across from me, a few hours at a time that was disrespectful and disturbing.

Room was a little dated and not the cleanest, tvs had some burn marks but for an airport hotel it did the job. Hotel Staff was attentive and the check in process was easy. It was a good one night stay for traveling through Johannesburg for flights. The shuttle service was efficient and well organized for transport back and forth from the airport and the restaurant onsite served large portions making it a good stop over spot between airport transfers.

They have another hotel address as their address in hotel.com but it is a shuttle bus pick up location. Shuttle bus only comes every hour and only 10 seats. It is behind a garage building. Nothing you can eat except their restaurant food. Breakfast is usd 15 per person. $23 $about 15

The hotel was nice and very easy to get to — we took a taxi from the airport with no issues and free transfers from Hotel to Airport in the morning.. The rooms are a bit small, but perfectly fine for a one-night stay. It’s a convenient and comfortable option when doing transfers through Johannesburg, and I would definitely stay here again.
