    Excellent, clean, serene, family friendly

    The service was great, personalized, very helpful and friendly people. Breakfast was freshly made always variety choice, enough privacy, and they paid attention to specific detail I gave as at booking. I can recommend them and i will always go back.

    Value for money and central in Joburg
