    Well because I wasn’t looking for luxury rather convenience, this place is near the UKZN golf road campus of which that is where I had the appointment at, however it is away from the town, I had to order in. I would recommend it for people who are visiting PMB for business, it is quiet, chilled and affordable.

    Excellent stay at 7 on Oakleigh. I travelled with my wife and small baby as I was riding the Amashova cycle race. Communication was great and access easy with safe off-street parking. The location was very quiet and removed from the city but with quick access to the city centre for the race - it is < 5min roll down the hill on the bicycle. The apartment we had was spacious, comfortable and clean, with an amazing shower.
