Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were nice and I was even able to check in early, fantastic after a long flight. The entrance is gated which is for safety and I saw lots of hotels like that, but it made me uncomfortable about the safety of the area, but then I was told that’s what Johannesburg is like.

This is a designed to meet the needs of the customer. The staff work very hard to make you comfortable. Breakfast was great. I always felt safe there. Unfortunately, the neighborhood is risky, and you can't just go exploring

The staff was incredible. They were very knowledgeable about the area and have great advice. I used the Park Station which can be a bit of an issue and the area is a bit sketchy after dark.
