    Pros +

    • The rooms were beautiful, particularly the bathroom finishes. The hotel seems recently renovated and as the facilities were still new and I love that they have various charging facilities including a USB-C slot on the wall. The breakfast has a lot of variety. The staff were helpful and friendly.
    • The room was lovely
    • I love the clean rooms. Love the location. I love roo a with both shower and tub. Most of all, the curious staff. Special thanks to Sane at the reception desk, she was very helpful. .

    Cons -

    • The elevator was not cleaned, the Wi-Fi was slow most days. The bed was generally low and small for my requirements. Having a toilet brush can really assist as you do not have to wait for house-keeping to clean the toilet area.
    • The location for my taste was not lovely. Food quality was standard hotel sub par.
    • Can't think of anything.

    Location is perfect. It is great when you are mostly out and not sitting in the room all day. It was clean and comfortable. Staff very friendly, professional and prompt with any request. Will definitely be back!!

    They were busy with renovations which couldn't be helped.

    Room is clean and beautifully decorated

    All facilities were under repair but there is no discount on room prices.

    Excellent location, friendly staff, breakfast was excellent.

    They need to do maintenance and improvements.

    The location was great.

    The staff wasn’t so friendly, i made a booking, when reaching the property was all full, but they managed to get rooms.

    Renovations started at 6am....contractors banging on the walls next door and outside our room non stop...check out is supposed to be at 11 but housekeeping was there to clean at 8am

    10NalediPosted on: 1-6-2025

    I had a great stay at the hotel, I loved how it was close to the mall and restaurants. The staff were also super friendly.

    9BopapePosted on: 1-6-2025

    The breakfast was good. the service was confusing at first but once we figured it out, everything went okay.

    the cleaning staff ignored our do not disturb sign. they attempted entry multiple times even with the sign up. they also took over 4 hours on a certain day to finish clean up in our unit.

    8YasmienPosted on: 1-6-2025

    Friendly staff. Convenient location with lots of halaal eating places nearby. Hotel was recently renovated. No balcony though although it was advertised in Booking.com.
