It was a perfect fit for my trip, offering a great balance of convenience and relaxation. I truly enjoyed my experience here and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Johannesburg.
Gardenia Boutique Hotel
The property doesn't quite match the current photos online—there's a noticeable difference between what's shown and the actual condition. The rooms feel dated, and some updates would really help improve the overall experience. That said, it's conveniently located near public transit, making it easy to get around Johannesburg. For budget travelers, it offers decent value for money. One thing worth mentioning: smoking should not be allowed in shared areas, as it can affect others' comfort. Clearer rules and enforcement would go a long way in maintaining a pleasant environment for all guests.

They even remember my preferences and make special arrangements, which really adds a personal touch. The room is clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, offering a peaceful retreat after a long day.
