Guest review
6.0Il vero fiore all' occhiello si Curiocity è il personale, gentile sorridente ed accogliente. Le camere erano molto fredde e non c era il phon per cui non era possibile fare lo shampoo ed asciugare i capelli. Nonostante la nostra richiesta non ci è stato fornito con la sola spiegazione "non ne abbiamo". Il quartiere è borderline, il fatto di dover essere accompagnati dopo il tramonto non fa di certo camminare tranquilli e spensierati. Anche di giorno in strada ci osservavano e scattavano foto. Per le sere successive a Joburg abbiamo deciso di cambiare quartiere.
Good place and good location
10.0The workers are so kind and friendly. Good place if you wanna know more traveler, if you wanna go to museums use bolt
Coriocityymachte meinen Aufenthalt perfekt 👌.
9.0Tolles Zimmer und super freundliches Personal. Nah zu allem (Supermarkt, Restaurants, Nightlife). Top ausgestattete Küche. Einfach perfekt.
− Leider funktionierte das WLAN fast während meines gesamten Aufenthaltes nicht.
NO vayan a JOHANNESBURGO a hacer turismo
1.0La habitación es grande y estaba vacía porque no hay ninguna persona decente ni turistas en Johannesburg
− Me robaron la comida en el hostel, había gente rara en el hostel y no me quedaba mas que estar todo el tiempo en mi habitación. No vayan a Johannesburgo mas de un día, esa ciudad no está lista para recibir turistas
Guest review
6.0the room was nice, the common area seemed lovely
− the area is a bit dodgier than i expected - they're very clear about where to go and not to go, but it seemed that even the main stretch of Maboneng didn't have too much going on other than a few bars
Excelente!
10.0Os funcionários são muito receptivos e cuidadosos com nossa segurança.
− Da facilidade de ir e vir.
