Good value for money - cheap & convenient location
This hotel offers good value for money. It is not magnificent, but it is cheap and conveniently close to the airport. There is no reason to stay at this hotel other than to rest before, between or after a long flight. The hotel seemed poorly managed (with a messy feel), but the staff was very helpful and friendly, and the room was excellent. The biggest drawback is that there is no complimentary airport shuttle, so one has to spend ZAR 100 each way to go to and from the airport if one does not have a car, and this cost should be included when calculating the cost of stay. ZAR 100 is the rate for a metered taxi or similar. Beware of the people in the arrivals area at the airport who try to force a shuttle on you, often at a much higher price and a longer wait. They can be quite insistent and aggressive, so just brush them off and find a regular taxi, which is faster and costs less. For the purpose of staying overnight between flights, this hotel is a good option and significantly cheaper than the hotels just next to the airport. Other than this there is no reason to stay there, as it is located in a semi-industrial area with nothing other than a few office buildings and warehouses. There are no drinks machines or food options in the hotel, but there is a McDonalds across the R24 highway, which is about a 10-minute walk. It is however not advisable to walk at night.
