y boutique hotel.
We flew into Johannesburg and came here. The host was friendly but it other staff that really spent the time to make our stay a memorable one. He stored our luggage until our room was ready and after breakfast on day one he surprised us by bringing us our morning beverages without even being asked. It was a lovely room with a clean bathroom and comfortable bed.
