Convenient for work in Sandton, nice rooms, Restaurant needs to check quality of food.
Pros:

My room was great, nice and big and a desk so I could work from. Staff at the restaurant were amazing and always willing to help.

Cons:

I was very disappointed with the quality of food at the restaurant. I had a few nights where the food was wrong what I ordered or not what it described. I met the chef, and we spoke about my concerns as I was coming back the next week.
I also would prefer the ladies who clean the rooms everyday could come in earlier, twice I came back to my room in the afternoons and they were still busy.
