Unique hotel with nice rooms with balconies looking out to the main square. The rooms and bathrooms are little run down. For the price this hotel is excellent and is in a great location. Breakfast buffet is a typical MENA hotel breakfast; cheese, meats, salad and pastries.

Absolutely amazing service. I have asked the team for a couple of photos and did it so well. And it was so great just to sit until 11 o'clock at night in the patio with a cup of coffee just in the very heart of the city. Thank you for a fantastic stay.
