great locationlong check-in processthin walls
the hotel location was great (very close to the haram).
The check-in process was a real letdown. It dragged on forever. the room i got was a classic twin room city view. it reminded me of the walls were paper thin. I could hear everything happening next door, and it made sleep almost impossible.

excellent locationdirect audioold toiletriesfaulty flush
the location was excellent , very close to the king abdulaziz gate of al haram. i also appreciated the direct audio connection from the haram , it allowed me to listen to friday khutbah live.
the toiletries provided in the room seemed quite old , they included hand wash , shampoo , and lotion with an unpleasant smell. also , i noticed the toilet flush was faulty , as water continued to drip.

Excellent stay near the Haram!

clean hotelspecial prayerhelpful staffdisruptive calls
The hotel was clean. I heard the prayer directly from my room, very special. Staff members were friendly and always available to help with any questions, it was a pleasure.
The satisfactory department called every night between 11 and 11:30 PM. I had requested that they do not call after 9 PM because I go to bed early. These calls kept coming and disrupted sleep, that was inconvenient.
