Janice 8/10

South Africa 🇿🇦

Great and comfortable - nice place for a family travelling as lots to entertain the kids and parents

Pros: Even though a late checkin due to landing late I was accomodated by the shuttle and Guest House

Cons: Aeroplane noise but to be expected so close to the airport

Stuart 9/10

United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Nice place close to the airport with free shuttle

Pros: Immaculate, clean and homely feel with pool and beautiful garden. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Bed very comfortable and good free continental breakfast. Free shuttle to the airport is a huge bonus and the reason we stayed here

Cons: Unfortunately this lovely place is in the flight path of the aircraft so the planes flying over are very loud.

Howard 8/10

Very peaceful, neat, clean and tidy.

Pros: Everything was perfect. Electric power was an issue in the morning but staff made every effort to overcome the issue. The 'Help your self Bar and pay later 'Facilities was a nice convenient touch.

Cons: Nothing to not like

Diana 10/10

Pros: Lovely tranguil setting besides the aeroplanes that fly over all day which is to be expected being so close to OR Tambo and exactly what we wanted. Very comfortable beds and the place was clean

Cons: There was nothing that we did not like

Niemann 8/10

South Africa 🇿🇦

Pros: Perfect location near the airport. The staff and owners are supper friendly and very accommodating. Truly a great place to overnight.

Cons: Most of the entrances to the neighborhood were closed off due to crime. Google maps didn't update the changes. This might cause future accidents.
