decent hotel with a good location

great locationkey attractionbreakfast varietysmall roomnoticeable noisefacing street
the location is great. it is close to many key attractions. i found it easy to walk to the blue mosque. the breakfast included a variety of hot foods. deli meats, cheeses, olives, fruit, dips, and bakery items were available.
the rooms were smaller than expected. the noise at night was noticeable. windows faced the street, so it was a bit loud.

I was grateful for the spacious room with generous cupboard space. The television size was good, and i felt safe with the in-room safe. Brewing facilities were available. I used them daily. The bathroom included a fantastic shower and provided toiletries.
The extra charge for spa access came as a surprise. I wish this had been clearer when i made the reservation, as it influenced my planning.
