Gold Reef Place

Without a doubt one of my favorite B&B's we stayed at during our time in Johannesburg! We had a late flight and only arrived at the B&B around 23:30 pm. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the staff, even though the latest check-in was 21:00 pm. Throughout our stay the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They ensured that we always arrived to a clean room each day. During our stay, we were informed that Johannesburg is experiencing water shedding. However, the staff always made sure that they have warm water available and they also supplied a bucket of water for each room. The B&B is situated in a very nice area. We also felt extremely safe for the entire duration of our stay. Nobody can enter, unless you have a remote (which is supplied by the B&B). We had two great evenings here, which obviously also added up to a great experience. Note, this is not a 5-star hotel, but the atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to me. Thank you to the wonderful manager who does a fantastic job and thank you to the staff for being such amazing people! Room : 4/5 Service : 5/5 Location 5/5

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER !!!! DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND NEVER BOOK HERE. We booked to attend a concert. We could not get dressed or shower as there was no water. The rooms were extremely disgusting and ever the entire upkeep of the premise long grass, old teabags in the grass, cigarette buds by the doorway .Lets not even get to the mold in the shower and filty bedding. The staff and host are extremely horrible to deal with. NO professionalism even when booking and they didn't even want to listen or help with any request. We could not even stay there because how do we get dressed with out showering and go to a concert and they refused to refund us. Please save your money and book in a decent place. We even took a video to show the owner and we were meet with no response. The only way this place makes money is by taking your deposit.

I went there with my mother on the 28th of September 2024 and we spent two nights at the B&B. Firstly we were not welcome properly into our room we were just given the keys, they didn't show us where to switch on the lights and how the fan works as it was abit hot we had to figure everything out on our own. The room wasn't the cleanest you'd ever find so that was a huge turn off for us, there were spider webs near the beds that made me wonder of they ever cleaned the room before we came. As it is a self catering place we thought we'd be shown the kitchen and how to use the stove and where to get plates and also where we could wash our dishes but none of that was done. I wish I could've taken pictures of everything I'm talking about because it was bad. I really wouldn't recommend it to anyone as I wouldn't go back myself because I didn't feel welcome so that also made me question the safety.
