Ellipse Executive Apartments
Good location, clean, secure spacious and had 2 parking bays allocated to the unit. There was a mix up with the booked unit but got complementary upgrade for inconvenience by the girls at the reception. Well done to the reception girls for a wonderful service.

Protea Hotel by Marriott Midrand
The staff is friendly and the place is clean. I just wasn’t happy because they mentioned a shuttle bus. There’s nothing like that. You have to pay for Uber to and from the airport and it’s very expensive. It costs 600 each way😢😢😢😢

City Lodge Hotel at OR Tambo International Airport
Went for breakfast at 4am. Staff at hot section ignored you and carried on with setup and one went to the back. No coffee offered. Maybe let one setup or prepare and at least one help guests
