Serene Retreat on Sandton

It’s quiet and private. Security is good as well.

I loved the large swimming pool inside the complex. There are trees outside with birds. A good coffee shop and small shopping centre are only an 8min walk away. Area feels safe and well maintained.

It's a very high density complex and initially the apartment on the third floor was difficult to find. The face recognition access has its hiccups. There is no air-conditioning in the apartment.

1. The premises had adequate security and was clean. 2. The host was nice. 3. There was water disruption through out Johannesburg on one day. The host was able to provide a solution (alternative). 4. Easy check out.

1. The actual location of the apartment (26°01'14.8"S 28°00'50.0"E) was different from the location on booking.com (26°01'14.8"S 28°00'50.0"E). Consequently I had to incur transport costs which I had not planned for.

There's no breakfast

The Host doesn't respond to messages nor answer calls. You have to figure everything yourself

Its so cute and well furnished with such a responsive team! And the complex is quite relaxed and quiet. The stay was perfect.

I wish I had a heads up about the stairs. Lol!

Space and cleanliness

Open plan, but I guess its a personal preference.

Location is the best. Everything you need is in close proximity. The place is very secure and safe. Very clean and beautiful.

The bed is too hard and stiff for comfortability. We hardly slept as it was extremely uncomfortable.
