“Great rooms - shady location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2010
2
people found this review helpful

The rooms at Ashanti are great, and they have a stove and refrigerator enabling you to to simple food preparation. Very comfortable beds. On the downside, the hotel is located in an area of town where it is not safe to walk around after dark, so you'll have to stick to taxi. Wifi is only available in the lobby. Good value for the money!

“Hated it”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2008
2
people found this review helpful

Horrible service! therewas no one atthe front desk for 30 minutes. Only the doormen where there. we had to wait until whenever they decided to show up. On top of that,...this hotel has NO AC in any of the rooms. While the rooms are very sexy and very updated, the heat at night makes you have a very restless sleep. Not worth it. Even more, the elevator there was broken and we had to carry 4 heavy peices of luggage up and down steps. Finally, it is the downtown area of Jo-berg which is very desolate at night.
