7.2/10

During my stay, I found the hotel to be well-located, close to several key attractions, and the staff were really helpful. However, the room decor felt outdated and the TV setup left much to be desired. The bed was surprisingly comfortable, making up for some of the shortcomings. Overall, it's a decent option for the price, particularly if you're not overly concerned with modern amenities.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel which is conveniently located right in the heart of town, making it easy to get to various attractions and the mosque nearby is a nice touch for Muslim guests. While the friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices are definite highlights, the rooms could use some upkeep, especially the air conditioning which wasn't very effective during my stay.
