Perfect!

Great place to stay! Well kept, quiet, and safe. We didn't get to enjoy the facilities as planned due to our flights being changed by the airlines. We arrived much later in the evening than originally planned. Tirsa and staff were very accommodating. I will definitely stay here again when in Johannesburg.

Noche de paso. Barrio de poca seguridad. Llegamos 15’ después del cierre de recepción, sin comida ni atención para solicitar delivery. Hotel antiguo. Limpio en sus camas y baños pero no más que un hotel de paso.no lo recomiendo más que para eso. Desayuno básico. Cereales humedecidos.

Utroligt venligt personale, lille og hyggeligt sted. Meget smuk have og bygning, og rigtig charmerende område. Værelserne var gode, og der var ikke noget at klage over. Ligger dog ikke i det mest spændende kvarter, men for en overnatning tæt ved lufthavnen med god komfort, er det helt perfekt.

Very nice, homely place. Our room was very spacious, included nice shower, Jacuzzi, and bathroom. Breakfast was included, and it was very tasty. Airport transportation is not included but can arrange at a cost. Staff very helpful and accommodating. It was very nice that it included a remote that unlocked the gates which was helpful when we got back at nights from our tours. Would recommend and stay again.

small, crawling with ants and not what was picture

The pictures were beautiful and the main house/building is where those pictures were taken. However the room we were given was a detached annex of the main building and the room was incredibly small and outdated and the bathroom was crawling with TONS of ants.
