Guest Reviews

• Alice (9/5): Great staying! - Great apartment! Perfect for a solo traveler or a couple. The apartment was clean and fully equipped to meet all your needs: washing machine, iron, power adapter, vacuum cleaner, clother rack and space heater. The area is absolutely safe and the mall is very close. In winter the apartment can be quite cold, and for some people the two small heaters can be insufficient. I had to work all day so for me it was quite cold, but if you are on holiday and don’t plan to spend a lot of time in the apartment you won’t have this issue
• Kamohelo (10/5): -
• makombe (10/5): - Overall tidiness, great location, the place to be always. Next time, just put 2 bottles of water in the fridge.
• William Michael (9/5): We enjoyed our stay - The apartment is very convenient for Rosebank. The room is generally comfortable and clean. The bed is not comfortable, too soft. No table placemats and a lack of kitchen cooking utensils, like scissors, etc. Expresso coffee machine would be nice.
• Joseph matimba (8/5): - The location was good The appartment was not cleaned during my stay.
• RENE (10/5): Home away from home - Absolutely beautiful
• Uzair (9/5): Great location, if you want to be close to shops and restaurants in Rosebank. - Great location. Walking distance to Rosebank Mall, The Zone, restaurants. Also was very easy to get an Uber and there was a parking garage if you had a car. Glasses would be nice. I had to use a mug to drink water.
• pat (9/5): - The environment was very excellent and clean the stuff was friendly
• Kabwende (7/5): -
• Peter (8/5): -
• Daniel Villas (10/5): - Good Good
• Adv. Nsikelelo Mafa (10/5): - Location Comfortable Clean Nothing
• Prashant (7/5): It was a good getaway but since things could have really improved our stay - Location was the best we could ask for Having to wait for the keys. Check in was too late. We couldn’t just leave our bags with security who didn’t want at the start. I expected housekeeping to be included in the fare
• marriott (8/5): - I had to wait an hour and a half for the keys
• Biniyam (9/5): It was a nice place would definitely go back. - The location was great, staff was good place was decent. The only little issue we had was the bed, mattress was not comfortable enough and needs an upgrade.
• ZM... (10/5): very confortable stay - Spotless Clean Comfortable and well kept
• William Michael (8/5): - LOCATION IS PERFECT, CLOSE TO THE OFFICE, RESTAURANTS AND SHOPPING SOFA IS UNCOMFORTABLE AND COLD IN WINTER
• Kenneth (1/5): -
• Mndonde (8/5): -
• GEORGE MUKUPA (4/5): Disappointing experience from Propr management services at the Median Apartments - .Median is my preferred choice of Stat. I find the place convenient, safe, spacious and good vibes. The check-in process was delayed by 2 hours. We agreed for 15hrs chceck in time and the operator only showed up at 17 hrs.. Additionally they charged me for cleaning services for 2 nights and nobody showed up. On the day of checking out, the lady showed up at 9 started cleaning and moving the things before we checked out. She literally watched me dress up
• Ahmed (2/5): Good location but apartment itself is not looked after in terms of providing comfort to the clients. - Location, access to Rosebank mall Not very clean (incident with cockroaches). Small apartment. Pillows very flat and uncomfortable. Towels provided were old. Sofa very worn out and old. No cleaning service or linen/towel change offered without a fee.
• Miguel (8/5): -
• Elizabeth (8/5): -
• Bogatsu (10/5): -
• Jacob (10/5): -
• Frauks (8/5): Location location! Best location, high safety, pleasant stay - check in was reasonably smooth. The heater in my room had broken, unfortunately due to my late arrival they were not able to replace it until the next day, but their communication about replacement was great.
• Hennie (10/5): Exceptional - Location We were unlucky no water
• Keletso (1/5): Bad -

• Hafeni (10/5): Satisfactory - Privacy Nothing
• Meyer (10/5): A stylish and secure place to stay in Johannesburg with great access to the city. - - The apartment was modern, spacious, and very clean. - - The security was top-notch, and I appreciated the underground parking. - The location was excellent — close to Rosebank Mall and other amenities. - The check-in process was smooth and communication was clear. - The Wi-Fi connection was occasionally unstable. - For the price you pay, there should be a daily clean of the apartment.
• Kgosi (9/5): Superb -
• John (7/5): Good -
• Hleta (8/5): Great loved the place and WiFi connection good - Perfect location and friendly staff Waiting period at check in since my flight delayed. Find other means of making keys easily accessible

• Simon (8/5): good location and clean and safe ------------TV options are unacceptable - no breakfast the TV service is non-existanrt
• Manana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Yolanda (10/5): Exceptional - We had a bad host
• William (8/5): Very good - The apartment is in a fantastic location, close to the shopping centre and with security around, perfect size of apartment for a couple, well equipped kitchen for in house cooking. The apartment is well equipped but the bed is a little soft, a proper luggage storage would be a benefit as when you arrive in the morning or depart later at night security are unwilling to hold bags. No air-conditioning but manageable.
• Elizabeth (9/5): I and my son really enjoyed our stay and wish to stay next time when we visit - It was soo clean and beautiful,i liked the backyard carpet it helped with when doing exercise I wish they could fix somewhere a full body mirror,it was hard for me to see my full dressed outfit before going out
• One (10/5): Amazing - The cleanliness, security and that its right by the mall Nothing
• Sabie (4/5): Very disappointed with Propr agency. False advertisement on pricing and poor customer service. - The Location False advertising and no housekeeping
• Precious (10/5): Exceptional -
• Phenyo (9/5): Superb -
• Gers6 (2/5): Very poor -
• Eunice (9/5): Superb -
• Dimakatjo (9/5): Our stay was fabulous and we enjoyed every second of it. - Location was perfect to access anything Everything was exceptional. Looking forward to coming back again soon
• Matenge (9/5): Superb -
• Toran-jean (8/5): Very good -
• William (8/5): Very good - The location is excellent for the Zone. The apartment is comfortable and spacious for a couple. It is very cold and lacks proper heating.
• Bongani (8/5): Very good -
• Zakhele (10/5): Best chill and leave in Town!!! - Not applicable. Place is self catering. Absolutely nothing..
• Richard (9/5): Superb -
• Ntokozo (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is close to all amenities. It was secure and safe, and clean. I liked everything about the apartment.
• Rodney (9/5): Really lovely. Would recommend it to anyone - Great location
• Neo (10/5): My partner and I had a great stay at The Median. We had the privacy we sought, the comfort too. We had a personalised ch - One of the striking features which peaked my interest, was the convenience the location provided. It also gave an experience of a beautiful sunset view in the horizon.
• Philippe (5/5): Clean, large, affordable apartment but overall disappointing. - Great location, large clean room. It took just on 1 hour to get the key. Yes they were left at reception however if you have no wifi you won’t get the message where to get them, then you won’t get the code to open the box and finally as there is no apartment number on the keys so nobody knows where to go. Tried to call host and text up to 5times. No answers. No wifi in apartment and no tv as remote was probably out of batteries or U/S. The traffic as become a nightmare outside.
• Cumbe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dineo (7/5): Good - It's very spacious and comfortable, it's close to everything, so transport wasn't something we had to worry about. Everything was user friendly and movement in and out the apartment was easy, friendly staff, very welcoming. Time for check in wasn't upheld despite all my communication. I don't like how I had to wait an hour to gain access to my room even though it had been discussed the day prior and in the early hours of my day. Something should be done about that.
• Celvin (9/5): It a perfect place for short term stay, extremely convenient. - Clean bed sheet could have been better, I understand that, for short term stay you dont do cleaning everyday, at least you can provide more than one set of bedsheet that customer can change.
• Asande (9/5): Superb -
• Nobuhle (10/5): Exceptional - The property was clean and very close to the mall
• Mookho (9/5): Superb -
• Sally (10/5): Exceptional -
• William (7/5): I really like the apartment but these few issues should be taken care of. - The location of the apartment is excellent and is very close to shops, Restaurants, Gautrain station, uber pick up points and the apartment is very spacious for a Studio, bed is very comfy and is well equipped. The cleaning was not organised when requested, again despite requesting this three weeks in advance. The internal atrium is nice but can be noise sometimes due to noise echoing in the space. Thursday, Friday and Saturday the proximity of the restaurants is nice but can be noisy. WIFI on a few of the days was very poor and therefore could not use the TV.
• Baxter (5/5): Passable -
• Lulu (10/5): Thank you so much everything was perfect - I like everything about this place Nothing
• Yash (7/5): Good -
• Louretha (9/5): Superb - Good location, neat well equipped apartment
• Sonelle (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sonelle (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sonelle (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nyasha (8/5): I love staying at The Median, it has become my go to for short Joburg stays - Location and facilities are top notch. There’s sometimes not enough cleaning items which can be quite inconvenient because we then have to buy
• Zinhle (8/5): All in all our stay was comfortable and I love that the place is close to the mall. Very convenient. Friendly staff that - The apartment was clean and beautiful, had everything we needed. The staff was very friendly. It was also quiet, exactly what we needed. Our toilet was broken. It was working properly, flushing and everything but the toilet was loose so it would make a very loud noise when you sit on it. The checking out process was also bad. We had to call the property to let them know that we’re checking out and they were not answering so we had to return to the room and leave the key there. Wasted our time when we made sure to check out on time.
• William (6/5): Pleasant - The location was very good, it is very convenient for Rosebank. The apartment is spacious enough for a couple and is well equipped for in house dining . The arrival experience was disappointing, general quality of the furniture should be improved poor quality, missing plates, cups etc not replaced when broken from previous occupancy, broken light bulbs not replaced, the organising of the cleaning of the apartment should be improved.
• Freedom_t (8/5): Excellent stay, super comfortable environment, secured and vibey, close to everything (shops & Mall) - The warmth of the hosts and the precise information they give during handover. Very welcoming! No air-conditioner in the unit. Just a blow fan.
• Gift (7/5): Great Place, Wrong Management. - The Spot was clean. Loved the view. WORST COMMUNICATION OF ALL TIME! From the second I made the booking, nobody knew where the money was between propr and booking.com. At some point I thought I was scammed. The Wi-Fi died and I had to make means to be the one to constantly check with our host on the progress where at some point she stopped answering my calls.
• Nozie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nguessan (8/5): Still going great but... - Almost everything. It's not the first time I stay at the Median, but I must say that It's becoming annoying to have the security personel almost pressurizing you for tip. I really think It's the one thing that could put your beautiful place into disrepute. You should adress that.
• Nyasha (7/5): Pleasant and adequate - The property is easy to access and yet secure. The apartment is nicely designed and comfortable especially for a short stay. The water pressure was brilliant and hot water was adequate The parking for the apartment is on the lowest level which can leave you quite dizzy after going round and down a lot. This is due to the building being narrow and square therefore you have to turn quickly. There’s not much that can be done about this but it’s just what I didn’t like
• Betsho (7/5): Good -
• Aisha (7/5): Good - The location is amazing.... And the house inside is very very comfortable. The host was so disorganize, brought us the key at the barking without letting us how to use the house and main door entrance.... While the guard told us that we were supposed to be taught and be introduced to the security guard. We had to introduce ourselves and ask for them to let us in...
• Olufemi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Siphumelele (10/5): The stay was great - Close to amenities. Easy to access. Communication of agent. It was Slo, especially when I had key issues.
• Raidon (10/5): Exceptional - Everything about the apartment and building close to all amenities and very clean Not applicable
• Dawn (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, neat apartment. Close to shops and restaurants
• Jacques (7/5): Good - The dinner table (round glace table) was broken.
• Yugen (7/5): Good - The remote for the parking was not available until the next day of check in. There was a lack of communication between the agent and the maintenance
• George (1/5): Bad - The place is nicely decorated The place didn't have hot water and Saturday no single drop of water at all. I was promised some water by the host but nothing was delivered.. everytime I queried spoke to a different person.
• Lynton (7/5): Convenient, with some very annoying aspects. - Clean, comfortable. A lot of loud banging type noises in the building affecting this apartment on a regular intervals. Could be the piping or something, but seemed to do with the structure. Also, the WiFi wasn’t working for first 7 hours. Eventually a totally different WiFi network, with a password that wasn’t even available anywhere in the apartment was communicated to me via email. It was ridiculous. The main blind in the lounge was clearly broken. Not highlighted to me on check in. So, it literally had to stay down the entire time, including all day.
• Mmathabo (9/5): Great place next to the mall and great restaurants. Clean and very secure. - Friendly security at reception, and very vigilant. The mall is just next door and it’s opposite great restaurants and Coffee shop. It’s very clean and secure. The street is sometimes very busy and there’s no parking for drop offs or Food delivery.
• Nokubonga (9/5): Superb - The bedroom and the kitchen were the best There were no instructions on how to use the stove
• Cathline (10/5): Exceptional - very thing was clean and accessible ,closer to a variety of facilities everything was perfect
• Mutebi (7/5): Good -
• Junior (6/5): disappointed with the WiFi situation - how Morden it is and the location there was no WiFi
• Ernst (6/5): Overall ok despite above mentioned shortcomings. - Location and comfortable layout. Backup generator TV not connected to any service. No instructions available for WiFi password. Lack of air con and also ventilation tract is noisy. Opening sliding doors is not practical on warm days and at times of lots f traffic noise
• Anonymous (5/5): Passable -
• Yamkela (10/5): Exceptional - The surrounding area was convenience at its best, the apartment was beautiful and had a beautiful balcony view.
