Impressive on approach. Tiny room and bathroom. Very basic, but clean. Comfortable bed with clean bedding. Ceiling caving in. Shower old and sprayed everywhere with limited pressure. Breakfast good. Friendly helpful staff. Limited wifi esp during load shedding.

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.

Loved the back yard sitting area. Had supper and drinks out there which were very good and a good price. Pool was cold and not clean and no chairs to sit out by the pool. All in all though, excellent stay for the price!
