Pros (+) If you're staying in Johanessburg do yourself a big favor a stay here. Clean room, comfortable bed and huge modern bathroom. The best part was Emily and Mathew took us on a tour of Soweto that was easily one of the highlights of our whole trip to South Africa. Taking us to shebeens and a bbq place where we had the opportunity to hang out with some wonderful people. Will definitely be staying here ...
Cons (-) Nothing.
