    The hotel has a central location close to Florida Road, the heart of the Durban nightlife. The room had a kettle and a fridge. A microwave is available in the common area. If you need an iron and an iron board, you can request from reception. We had bottled water. The room was equipped with aircon. We stayed for two nights and our room was cleaned nicely after night 1.

    The property is beautiful, it is very central and the Oyster Box Hotel is just outside of the main gate so you can go there for lunches, breakfast etc. The Umhlanga promenade is a short distance from the flat and lovely to walk on early mornings and in the evenings. You will not be sorry if you choose 703 Oster Schelles for you next stay.
