My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not so good experiences. On the positive side, the hotel's proximity to the Gautrain, food options, Nelson Mandela Square, and quiet rooms made my stay comfortable. However, there was a slight smell of cigarettes in the room despite requesting a non-smoking room, and the absence of a safe was a concern.
