Convenient Location and Friendly Staff

souq proximityclean roomgood breakfastunstable wi-fi
The hotel is close to the souqs. I could easily walk to the city's main attractions, or I used Uber for longer distances. The room was clean. I found the breakfast selection good. waiting for a table was sometimes necessary.
the wi-fi connection was often problematic. This affected my ability to work efficiently from my room. The staff eventually provided a different password, but the connection remained unstable.
