A-1 in the name implies “top of the list, best”. That couldn’t be further from the truth. It would be accurate to rename this joint Z-99. This place is NOT REPUTABLE. If you’re a visitor to Pretoria or a travelling businessperson, this is NOT THE PLACE TO STAY. Disappointment guaranteed. This joint should be your very last consideration. Frankly, I’d sleep in the car. Nearby Turaco GH at 197 Lavata is an infinitely better choice. You won’t get any kind of service. What you will get is constant, daily, VERY LOUD “doef-doef” MUSIC FOR HOURS at a time, with complete disregard for in-house guests and neighbours. No sleep possible, guaranteed. I’m writing this because respectable, hard-working people should not hand over their money to troglodyte idiots. Folks in the neighbourhood know this place as a “RENT BY THE HOUR” establishment. Yes, you know what that means. After a night here, you and your belongings should be disinfected. The owner/manager is on site but doesn’t care less. Maybe he’s just spineless and afraid to stand up to the muppets? That, or he’s a willing participant. In that case there’s no chance he’ll respond to your complaint – after he’s taken your money, of course.
