The hotel's rooms are just too nice, spacious, clean, and offer all the essentials for working, despite some Wi-Fi issues due to lightning. However, they were a bit far from the elevator, and there was a mix-up with a smoking room initially, which got resolved with a room change to one with a balcony.

The room was of a high standard, though it wasn't bright enough for us to see a small note on the fridge about it being turned off for the environment. The staff were super helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate dietary requirements, but seemed to be struggling with the computer system. The location, close to O R Tambo airport, was great for an overnight stay, though it was a bit tricky to find at night. The dining experience was exceptional with a wide range of tasty options, but the breakfast timing could be earlier. Overall, a convenient stay with some minor room and service issues.
