Randburg is a great center for a True third world African Experience. It is unlike our standard shopping complexes that are all basically the same around the world. Randburg CBD is a Cobble stoned Boulevard, which runs for about 5 blocks, it has banks, shops, discount stalls, KFC and a few super stores for buying of groceries etc..,
It is characterized by cheap beer and food. This is where the locals eat, trade and make merry.
Randburg is one of the student neighborhood in Johannesburg, hosting both Local and National students from all over Africa.
What makes this little town a special experience is that it is located in a middle class Suburb, where you get to really experience Joburg life, without the danger of being in Joburg CBD. It has many Churches, Spiritual learning places and Colleges around it. Like Christ Embassy the Healing School, CTI, Boston college etc

They show a 10.0 w 111 reviews, dunno where these ppl stayed but not here! This is same property as sleek BP. Far away. Airport transfers is a lie, was told they don’t do them anymore and “take an Uber†(expensive!) the showers have sheer curtains and gaps bxt them so u can see in, anyone can walk around the back to women’s showers! Dorm doors are glass so whole courtyard can see in your room. There is no code for the security gate so u have to wait to be let in, Room small, beds very squeaky.

I found the hostel quite decently located in the busy and posh Randburg area of the city. It's not very far from the posh and upscale Hyde Park Mall. The Central Business District - CBD - of Johannesburg is about 15-20 mins drive with the city's popular mini taxis. I was expecting a good mix of actual backpackers in the hostel but was literally disappointed. What i found was regular outstation people who come to Johannesburg for work. It was clean with limited wifi and some electricity problem.
