"I'm so glad I chose this hotel! It's only 17 minutes from the airport, and the directions to catch the transfer were super easy to follow. The gentleman at the check-in desk, Yousef, was incredibly helpful and professional. My room was spotless, and I loved that I could grab free coffee and tea at the lobby anytime.

"This was a great hotel for a layover. The room was very clean and had water for tea/coffee. I felt like it had a faint cigarette smell, but really that could just be the city itself lol there was a big window available to open which was nice. The shower had awesome temperature and water pressure. The shower alone made me happy about the decision to stay there! Walking distance is a grocery store and food options. This is a residential area though so not catered to tourists really. There is a little souvenir shop close to the hotel that was nice and had a great person working there. All the staff I interacted with at the hotel were awesome. Kind, courteous, and really helpful. The car service back to the airport was phenomenal too."

"We stayed here due to the proximity to Maximum Uniq, as we went to the metal festival this weekend. Mission accomplished! Very close to everything by bus, and a 5 minute walk to the metro. I rated this stay overall a 4/5 because of the beds and the pillows, which were both rather uncomfortable, particularly the pillows. And, a bit nit-picky, but the coffee in the room was almost undrinkable. However - and this is something I dont see very often - they had cleaned the water kettle. Good job! Breakfast was great, omelet station was great."
