The hotel overbooked and so told us that they didn't have a reservation for us after a long and exhausting journey. Luckily, we found a better hotel near by. AVOID THIS HOTEL.

Steve's review
We were very happy with the location of the hotel from where one can order a Uber or a Tuk Tuk for transport. Supermarkets and shops are within reasonable walking distance. The staff were available to clean the room every day and the room itself was nice an spacious with an ensuite shower room. There were two tables, two chairs as well as a refridgerator and a television. It was nice to have breakfast included which consisted of an omelette, bread,butter, jam, tea coffee, juice etc.

good location, fair price, nice terrace
We stayed two nights in separate periods. Once in double and once in triple. The double room faces the roof terrace (internal court) and was quite pleasing. The triple room (room 20) was next to the kitchen and the smell and noise were very disturbing. Overall cleanliness could be definitely improved, and we had both times to ask for towels.

Not worth the effort.
This place is an absolute hoax, I highly recommend you never stay here unless you love to share your room with cockroaches. Also don't expect your complaints to be addressed and should you find yourself having to check out and requesting your refund, you are given less than 15 mins to vacate as if you were an unruly guest. Kindly delete this place from your database.

Dirty, smelly, unpleasent
Almost vomited from the smells. Photos on web of hotel misrepresent how dirty, dingy and disgusting this hotel is. After sleepless night I checked out without compensation. Creepy hotel with zero amenities. Most unpleasant shower and room decor. No internet, no beer sold as it’s Muslim halal hotel. Disgusting hotel
