The hotel is in a Middle Eastern neighborhood, which my husband and I loved for the excellent affordable food options. However, the area made us feel a bit uncomfortable being out after dark, as it seemed a bit daunting for English guests. On the plus side, it's only a 15-minute walk to the city center.

The hotel was spacious and comfortable, with a balcony linking all the rooms, but cooling down the room was a challenge as windows didn't open much. The service was nice and communicative, although lacking in providing guidance for local transport and sightseeing. The location, while close to the city center, was in a gritty and rough area. The dining experience was just okay, offering limited choices and sometimes delayed refills. Overall, the hotel offers decent rooms and service but has some drawbacks in location and dining options.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were large, clean, and super comfortable, but lacked basic amenities like a tea kettle and water. The service was a mix of being professional and rude. The location was convenient to major attractions but felt uneasy due to the street's atmosphere. The dining experience had its highs and lows with a variety of food but also unwelcoming guests in the lobby. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
