It is a very eclectic hotel with unique lounging areas on the different floors. Staff were great and breakfast was good. There was an issue with no curtains or shades on the door to one of the balconies in our room but being on the 3rd floor mitigate any exposure. We will definitely stay again if we are ever in Johannesburg again

部屋の設備や雰囲気は最高です。今回は受付に関係の無い人間が座っていた事と、朝食の準備が06:30からと言われていたのに、06:45に行って何も出来ていなく、こちらから指示してあげないと皿もコーヒーの準備も出来ないスタッフだったのでガッカリしました。

It is not fot for family over night stays, it is ok for a bunch of guys to stay over. The living room has no air conditioning, and the ac in the bedroom is ancient. There was a kitchen in the apartment we lived in, but the kitchen had no playes/ cutlery.

Et autentisk og gennemført sted. Hvert hjørne og krog var en oplevelse eller en oase. Både ejeren og øvrig personale er ualmindelig imødekommende. Vi ville ønske vi kunne være blevet længere og vil klart vende tilbage.
