Gold Reef Place review

Cozy and comfortable place. Easily accessible. Three issues to improve on: 1. Despite the fact that I had booked 3 weeks earlier, the housekeeper did not have my confirmation. Although it was eventually sorted, it leaves one to wonder. 2. Wi-Fi was only accessible in the main house and not in the rooms 3. Dstv was not accessible. I had to watch crucial World cup games on my phone.

Best place for Soweto Marathon / FNB Stadium

I stayed at the guest house on the weekend of Soweto Marathon. From the time I booked until my checkin the owner answered all my questions. The area is clean & safe and also close to the popular Gold reef theme & casino. The room was clean and well maintained. Breakfast was homely and we enjoyed it so much. A day before the marathon we received nutritious food parcels since we were going to leave for the marathon at 4:00 AM. Finally the owner allowed us to take a quick shower after the marathon. I highly recommend this place for those participating in Soweto Marathon or watching a match at FNB Stadium. It is an excellent value for money. Also there's loads of entertainment just around the corner.
