Guest Ratings & Reviews
Waking up to a construction site next morning was quite a downer, but overall, the spacious and clean rooms were very comfortable. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the stay pleasant. The location is convenient but may bring traffic challenges when leaving. Dining was good but a bit overpriced. Overall, a mixed experience with some great highlights.
The hotel location is convenient, but traffic can be an issue. The rooms are dated and could use some updates, with small windows making them a bit dark. The service was outstanding, with exceptionally friendly and accommodating staff. The dining options are decent but overpriced for what you get.
My stay at this hotel was fantastic! The rooms were very spacious, clean, and comfortable, but some areas are in need of modernization. The staff was extremely nice and helpful, especially Mr Sultan Alqahtani. The location was convenient for my business trip, although check-in took longer than expected. The dining options were decent but seemed overpriced. Overall, a good value for money.
