I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite spacious and clean, but unfortunately, they are very outdated and have a musty odor. The service was friendly with fair communication skills. The location is convenient, close to two different subway stops, offering flexibility in exploring the city. The dining options were too simple, with just basic breakfast items. Overall, it was an okay stay with some drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at the hotel. The rooms were tidy with basic amenities, but the lack of air conditioning during spring was inconvenient. However, after addressing this issue, my new room was comfortable. The service was top-notch with super nice and helpful staff, offering various services like dry cleaning and housekeeping. The location was convenient, close to subway stops and recommended for Muslim travelers due to its proximity to the National Mosque and halal food options. The dining experience was basic, offering standard options, and the facilities were satisfactory.
