This is by far one of the best stays I have had aa far as hospitality goes, amazing. I checked in with Muhammed which was more than happy ti help with anything you needed, even for random things which would help you stay, a very great gentleman. For the rest of my stay Farah helped me with spots and things I could do and so did Hurudh which always made sure that you were comfortable and your stay was going well. The location of the hotel itself is also great and easy to wander. Fantastic place!
