Oasis in Joburg
This hotel is clean and comfortable, well priced, safe, has a very good complimentary breakfast and is close to downtown. Amenities included TV, fridge, stove and kitchen cooking/eating utensils. WiFi was a bit spotty but our host Obert was quick to correct the service. He also arranged local transport and tour service along with good information to our questions. A fan would be a good addition in the room but open bedroom window sufficed. We would recommend this hotel.
