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😢😢😢😢
