Unfriendly and outdated

Check in took half an hour. The rooms are super outdated. Rooms keys had to be replaced. Food was hit and miss. But perhaps the biggest concern was just how unfriendly most of the staff were. We were supposed to stay there again when flying out of Joburg but cancelled cause the hotel is just not worth it.

Safe clean. Buffet is great. Electrical Outlets in rooms outdated. I could not use my cpap even though i have international converters. I would highly recommend it. Near airport. Shuttle every 15 minutes. Very convenient.

A/C could have worked better. Staff was great and hotel was clean. Breakfast buffet was worth the price of the room by itself. Will always stay here when I’m in Joburg.

They didn’t offer any shower caps, and there were no bathroom robes or slippers provided, which was quite inconvenient.
