    friendly staff

    Recommend it for solo travelers

    Staff was super friendly, always quick to help! I felt right at home when I was there, like family, especially with the reception girls, one of them even had a gold tooth, I wish I remembered her name!

    Prices weren't cheap, but you get what you pay for, I guess.

    varied breakfast
    dark room
    maintenance issues

    The breakfast buffet offered a good variety.

    The room was uncomfortably dark. Despite asking for more light, the service stated it was by design. I faced noise disturbances from neighboring rooms, made it hard to relax. The bathroom had some maintenance issues that were not addressed, leaving me frustrated with the overall experience.

    Well-mannered staff at the reception desk, and facilities were really nice here. The location was magnificent and unbeatable, at a walking distance from Qasr al Hosn Exhibition. You could walk to a shopping street and local markets.

    The area was not great.

    outdoor pool
    sun terrace
    unreliable wi-fi

    We enjoyed the outdoor pool and the sun terrace. The super nice team and friendly. Don't miss the breakfast. It's a great start to your day. Highly recommend this spot for a fun group vacation.

    One downside was the Wi-Fi connection. It wasn't very reliable , hard to stay connected.

    Very good staff and location - they offered a really great stay in a well located hotel. It was value for money in contrast to other hotels. The breakfast included slices of fresh bread, butter and jam for everyone.

    diry towels
    empty mini bar

    Absolutley appalled by this 4-star hotel! Only one towel for two people, really? And a mini bar that was empty, seriously? I expected a comp upgrade due to their many shortcomings, but of course, that woudl ve been too much to ask. Prettty room, but not worth the hassle. I just couldn't give a good review.
