古いが便利な宿

とても古いです。昭和30年代の感じの古き良きホテルといった感じです。アメニティーは最低限度のものしかありません。ベットがとても小さいかったです。テレビ（映りませんでしたが）、水2本、石鹸、バスタオル1枚、エアコンがありました。ただ、十分でした。朝食はごく普通でした。バスタブがリフォームされていて奇麗だったのでお湯を溜めてゆっくり入ることができました。コスパは良い方だと思います。空港からのバスの乗り場まで徒歩5分です。市場のはずれにあり便利です。近所に24時間スーパーがありました。バスターミナルまでは徒歩15分程かかります。ネットはやや繋がりにくい感じでした。

Good value for a reasonable price. It is a bit old, but has some atmosphare and the room is comfortable and spacious. It is very central, near the souk of manama, but not noisy. There is a restaurant and room service for food, and staff is very friendly.

In a place where no Uber driver wants to take you.

The room was stuck in the year 1998. But they had HBO so it wasn't too bad and the beds felt like they were the original beds from when the place first opened.
