10/10 Excellent
"This is a clean hotel directly connected to JNB airport. I have stayed here many times. It is always great service, rooms are clean and the breakfast buffet is excellent value. Check-in can sometimes be busy when a lot of international flights arrive at the same time. The staff are always friendly and helpful!"
