Bad hospitality
Pros:

I did not like anything

Cons:

I was in the bathroom room and someone opened my bedroom door.i screamed and they apologized where it was another visitor or the cleaning staff.

Unacceptable, I ordered room service over the phone, the food took a hour before it came.

A standard cheese burger and chips and guess what it came cold. The blueberry cheese like was like it came out of a freezer.

Complete waste of money if you ask me.

Nice hotel but misleading name as not at airport
Pros:

Food at the restaurant was well priced and really tasty. Nice to have hotel gym also

Cons:

It is misleading to call this City Lodge Johannesburg airport - this is not the one at the airport, which is what we thought we had booked. This is a 10 min drive from the airport and the return taxi journey cost us £50.
