Great service. Friendly staff. Easy check-in process. The only downside was that the power had been cut ( through no fault of Ithonsi) which meant that hot water wasn't available for my one-night stay. However, they had been in contact with local municipality to have the issue resolved.

The property manager is duch a nice guy. We arrived late after we landed at the airport and there was no electricity in the property. He run a generator for us so we could have a shower etc before going to bed. And again in the morning before we left. Very appreciated it.

This property was great as it was close to the airport, perfect for a short layover! Additionally, the rooms were clean, well kept, and the staff were very polite! If I had a layover in Johannesburg, I would book here again.

At the time of stay, the room I stayed in didn’t have privacy curtains on the windows, meaning people could see in. This wasn’t a huge issue as the property is gated, however if you need to change in your room etc it’s possible a staff member may accidentally see you! Not a big problem as you can change in the bathroom, just a small recommendation.

The welcome and help from Bhecki the manager His pleasant manner and helpfulness He went out of his way by going to the local shop and changing a R100 note to 20s The cleanliness and comfort of the room This was true of both the rooms I had on different stays. The proximity of the airport as I had a morning flight on my first visit

The initial view of the broken keypad for entrance (though I think this was being fixed. The bags of leaves etc at the base of the palm in the garden. The overall appearance was spoiled by the back area used to park cars by airport parking (about 80 at one point), this made it look like a car park rather than a Guest house

I liked my room. I booked the Superior room which had an ensuite and a big window to view the garden outside. The room was very clean and the bed very comfortable. There was an evaporator cooler which I used now and then ti freshen the air. The shower was good and everything was very clean. The property hist/ caretaker was so polite and caring. The breakfast was delicious and the coffee perfect. Only 4klms from the airport. Bekhi will organise an Uber to take you back to the airport. I would stay again as it is very homely. Snacks, wine, coffee and juice were available from the fridge!

The caretaker Bheki was great and readily available. I had a long 6 hour daytime layover at JNB and decided to stay at the lodge. I communicated this over email. They made sure my room was ready as I arrived. I enjoyed that it was less than 10 minutes from the airport and close to order food on Uber Eats. The room and ensuite toilet was comfortable and very clean, as were the common areas.

Unfortunately they had power issues at the time (no charging and no hot water) but Bheki the caretaker said he can turn on the generator whenever I wanted, which I appreciated.

5 min car to the airport, our tour service picked us up from this hotel to Kruger Park, so I think the location is very convenient if you are waiting for your next connection. The hotel has all the facilities in the room, bathroom, kitchen, etc, all impeccable and clean. Comun kitchen Laundry service Polite and helpful staff, thank you for everything you did for making us comfortable.

Room size could be small but cozy.

Great guy, Mr Bheki. Calm, chill place. I do recommend it for staying the day/night before you flight. Or even your stay in Joanes, as ubers tend to be cheap anyway. The neighborhood seemed chill compared to the place i stayed before more to the center, but can be only a impression - Joanes doesnt seem like a safe city at all. Nice and clean room. Good amenitties. Nice bed. Just missing a heater, as it can get cold in the night. The blanket/sheet are good stuff tho.

There's nothing indicating the name of the place. Its easy to find in the day because its a big red wall, but at night, i guess some people may take a while to find. Also, in low season, there was no food and not much to drink (frigobar stuff). Its easy to order from Uber eats or other local app tho. Set up a bar with beers and wines and just store it for selling, Mr Bheki!

Perfect place to stay near OR Tambo Airport! Bheki was a fantastic host—very welcoming and helpful—and our room was very clean and comfortable. Our room had a mini fridge (with reasonably priced drinks) and kettle and the kitchen was well-equipped for cooking. The room even had robes for us, which was a fancy touch for such a reasonably priced accommodation. The WiFi worked well. The guest house also has a nice grassy outdoor area with a picnic table. You can purchase meals on-site or UberEats delivers. The guest house felt very safe and secure. We took a prepaid taxi from the airport because the airport WiFi wasn’t working to order an Uber/Bolt and it was 200 Rand, but going back to the airport we got a Bolt and it was only 42 Rand. Getting to and from was quick and easy. Highly recommended if you want to stay close to the airport!

The room was super clean , I like that. everything was organized .

I rang the bell for so long without anyone answering then I had to make a phone call so that they can open for us. that's a no ,no. Again, after arrival we have been told to wait in the car and they will call us. I believe the room must be prepared before the check in and the bed was not comfy .
