I had a somewhat mixed experience at this hotel. While the location is fantastic with plenty of dining options nearby and easy access to attractions, my arrival was marred by overbooking issues that led to frustrations. The staff, although caring at times, could improve their service consistency. Overall, the rooms were decent, but the dining experience left something to be desired.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of downtown and very close to Al Mariah Mall, which made it super convenient for shopping and dining. Unfortunately, the service was lacking, with some staff being unwelcoming. The rooms were a bit disappointing as well, with cleanliness being an issue. On the bright side, the dining options were quite tasty, especially the salads and coffee.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While it was centrally located and the staff was friendly, the room I initially received was a bit dark and had a lingering cigarette smell, although the receptionist was very helpful in moving me to a better one. The dining options were limited and could use some improvement. Overall, it was decent value for the price, but some aspects definitely need attention.
