    During our vacation in Jozi, we decided to stay at a small boutique hotel in a quiet residential area. The location was perfect for us to find refuge from the busy city life. The hotel had beautiful gardens where we could relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. We also loved the restaurant, where the breakfast buffet was plentiful and the staff offered a la carte options like delicious omelettes. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a large bathroom and a walk-in closet. The service provided by the staff was excellent, as they were always available to assist us with any requests. our stay at this hotel was a perfect retreat.

    The gym at the hotel was quite small and lacked equipment.

    The staff at this hotel were amazing and went above and beyond to take care of me during my stay. There was a wonderful attention to detail and the service was impeccable. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, especially the beds, which were the most comfortable I've ever slept on. The location of the hotel was also great, situated in a peaceful suburb with beautiful surroundings.

    The only downside to this hotel was the unpredictable transit time to the airport. The journey between the hotel and the airport could take anywhere between 45 minutes to an hour, and at times even longer.

    I had an incredible stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome with their warm smiles and efficient service. The cleanliness of the hotel was impressive, with every room and common area spotless. The hotel facilities were top-notch, with two beautiful pools and a spa with amazing views. It was also easy to find a place to sit contemplatively and enjoy the stunning surroundings. The hotel's location in the center of this city was perfect, providing easy transportation and access to all the sights. The breakfast was delicious, with so many options to choose from, and the staff were attentive and friendly.

    Nothing not to love.
