Nice city hotel
Nice city hotel, breakfast was and choices were reasonable. But it was bit pricey for the facilities offered. It's a good 3 star hotel but not 4 star as advertised on Hotels.com.

Easy and convenient for what I needed
The hotel met my needs for just a place to sleep. Wasn't after a resort type hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean. Pleasant night sleep as it is off the main road so it was nice and quiet.
Staff were helpful and friendly.

Nice hotel in Al-Ghubrah district.
Stayed 2 nights and was very satisfied, no complaints. Large, clean rooms, huge bathrooms. Wi-Fi worked fairly well but was a little slow at times. Buffet breakfast was limited in choice but quite tasty. Pool was on the small side but fine for a dip.
