Terrible hotel

should grade this hotel as 1 star for everall.... Pls do not expect comfort in the room or in the premises. And do not expect good service from the front desk including the boss which he claim he is. Terrible experience, cancelled my room even no refund, the so called Boss said can refund at the first place, after 5min, he said no refund. Not worth value, consider other hotel Please.

Current status of the hotel

The hotel’s standard has dropped tremendously since my stay there some 3 years back. It appears that maintenance has slackened tremendously and things were “falling apart”. One of the lights in my room was not functioning as well as the two down lights outside my room. I brought this up to the reception twice. It was mot attended to at the end of my 5-day stay. The TV set was out of order almost throughout my stay; despite being attended to twice by the hotel staff. The front desk and other personnel were very courteous though. The breakfast was mediocre.

Close to airport, great location for a longtransit

Overall good, staff at check in were fantastic, at checkout it was a little different, I booked a taxi driver from the hotel, he gave me a price and asked me to pay, the taxi driver told me that I paid too much and that the reception staff is 'pocketing' some of the money.

BIG MISTAKE

Hotels in Oman are not cheap, so, better to spend a bit more and staying in a chain. At least, you get what usually...mosquitos, spiders, bad breackfast and dirty carpet on smelly restaurant on basement...bad bad selection. No wifi apart of lobby and after requiring several times to switch on the router...

Never Go Here Please

I must say this kind of hotel property must not exists at all. It was such a horrible experience and place that I am ashamed of writing. Room was smelly and wall was damped. Property was low class with all the fixtures like doors and glasses would come off. Shower door was not fixed and it fall on me while closing. Toilets had no proper exhaust as smell remains inside toilet after use. Overall it looks like either contractor had looted the property owner by using worst quality products OR owner had intention to save huge money and just build up a hotel on main road , next to city center mall. I though it belong to MAF group of dubai, if that is the case , then it's pure shame.

value for money though far from centre

attractive price but watch out the hidden cost of commuting as hotel far from the centre. Room service is poor but availability of City centre shopping mall nearby presents decent alternative in terms of food and beverages. Not ideal for families

Ser fint ut men är mycket slitet.

Hotellet ligger bra och har ok faciliteter. Rummen var ganska stora och hade trevlig möblering. Tittar man närmre var det dock väldigt slitet och skitigt på rummen. MItt badrum blev översvämmat vid varje dusch och tapeten var fasttejpad med kontorstejp på sina ställen.
