Categories

Cleanliness
6
Mixed signals: several guests praised cleanliness, but there are multiple serious negatives (dirty couch, reports of poor hygiene and a cockroach in breakfast, tired linens) that lower this score.
Service
9
Generally strong: many reviews highlight friendly, helpful and ‘amazing’ staff and smooth check-in/out; isolated reports of very poor customer service and slow WhatsApp responses slightly temper this.
Location
9.2
Consistently praised: central Sandton location, close to restaurants, cafés, supermarkets and malls; frequently noted as a major positive.
Room Quality
8.7
Mostly positive: many guests mention modern, spacious rooms, comfortable beds and good layouts; a few complaints about odd TV placement, small shower/box and inconsistent room condition.
Amenities
7.5
Mixed/limited: breakfast and basic amenities are often fine, but issues include no phone in room (WhatsApp reliance), tag/key problems, and some guests noting the absence of a rooftop bar.
Value for Money
8.8
Perceived as good value by several guests; positive comments about price-to-quality and repeat-stay intent support a rating above the target.
Food and Beverage
7
Mixed: some guests praised the breakfast as ‘super’ or adequate, while at least one severe hygiene incident (cockroach in yogurt) and inconsistent breakfast experiences reduce the score.
Overall Experience
9.4
Leaning positive overall: many guests describe an amazing stay and intend to return; notable negative outliers (very poor service or hygiene incidents) exist but the majority sentiment is favorable.

Poor WiFi is a deal breaker
Pros:

This is my go to place

Cons:

This is the second time i experienced poor WiFi. Which I find annoying and frustrating. Travel for work and having online meetings this is a critical service. It’s like having accommodation without a bed.

Pros:

location is good

Cons:

I arrived 15 to 20 minutes before their check in time and they refused to let me in even though the room was ready. Seriously no one can predict exact time of arrival and they are not flexible at all

Noise. The kitchen assistant didn't speak english
