I found my stay at Road Lodge Cape Town International Airport quite convenient for my overnight layover. The short walk from the airport, though slightly uphill with luggage, was manageable. However, the noise from other guests in the hallways was disruptive and made it hard to sleep. While the facilities are basic, the restaurant's food was healthy and the staff were friendly. ✈️
