Clean and quiet. Not so good shuttle service

Clean basic room. Slept well, quiet. Biggest issue. Walked long way to find the hotel shuttle, i waited 20mins and it drive in and out. Didnt stop for me. I walked back to terminal, line of 150ppl for taxis. It ended up costing me 150dirhams for 5 min drive in a Vip taxi. It was 46 degrees and humid. I couldnt try and wait for another shuttle and risk it driving by again

The room was outdated, dust bin in the washroom was broken- spoke to FIVE different people (including the Duty Managers & House Keeping) over FOUR days and nothing was done to have it replaced. We also were open to moving rooms and the room offered to us was also in shambles! The standing shower area had insects housing themselves in one corner, grime and filth in the washroom. All in all the Worst experience a family could have gone through on a vacation. Would not recommend this property to anyone!

Great location close to the airport. Be mindful it still takes a minute to get to by shuttle, you cant walk there as its across the highway. The breakfast was really big, great variety, definitley way more options than the typical continental breakfast that some hotels provide. Highlty recommend if youre looking for a comfortable hotel thats near the airport with a great breakfast.

Great hotel with friendly and supportive staff.

After a check-in in the early hours of the morning, the staff were very friendly and supportive on arrival from the complimentary airport shuttle to the staff at the desk. Breakfast was in a buffet format with a wide variety of options available. The room was very clean on arrival and exactly what was needed after a long haul flight. Check out in the morning was very straight forward with Keir showing a lot of kindness in relation to our stay.
