The staff was wonderful. I really appreciated being met at the airport after my long travel. The food was very good and the coffee specifically was delicious. The area was a bit noisy with traffic and I guess we were by a mosque so we heard the five daily prayers over the loudspeaker. It was great for a three night stay.

Nice hotel for a night layover awaiting transfer to a resort. The staff were all lovely and helped me sort out the details of the transfer. The rooms are a bit worn down and there is peeling paint on the walls, but they have the basic amenities.

The staff were good and all but I was asked the second time at 2AM when i brought my wife whether i have already given my id card details and all. its funny because at checkin before they hand over the key all this is confirmed and i felt insulted because this question was asked. other than that stay was good all staff were friendly.
