I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious and had two queen size beds, which was fantastic for my group. The balcony added a lovely touch to the room, and all the facilities worked perfectly. However, the price was a bit on the higher side, but it was definitely worth it for the experience.

The hotel is ideally located at the heart of the city, directly above the famous Al Bostan cafe. The rooms are comfortable and come with all the necessary facilities, but Wi-Fi is not included and has to be paid for separately. The service is excellent, but the dining options may be limited. Overall, it offers great value for money with a few minor drawbacks.
