Stayed more than two weeks in Melville house, as it is a friendly place on a relatively secure compound and with adequate facilities. Wifi works well, the showers are hot and there are kitchens to cook. Friendly enthusiastic staff that will help you to solve problems (well appreciated after I was mugged in downtown Joburg). Melville neighborhood offers not only places to go out, such as the bars and restaurants on 7th street, but also hiking options in the nearby Koppies nature reserve and Botanical Gardens park area. Supermarkets like Spar and Pick&Pay are in the vicinity of the hostel. Inexpensive public transport to the city is available as well. Rea Vaya C4 and T3 are the numbers of the relevant buslines. Of course alternatively you can use Bolt or Uber taxis (not too expensive outside peak hours).
