Guest Ratings & Reviews
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, right in the heart of the vibrant Medina, making it so convenient to explore. The rooms are spacious and modern, providing a cozy retreat after a day of adventure. The service was exceptional, with the night shift staff being incredibly accommodating. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the paid shuttle service was a downside. Overall, a wonderful experience with great value for money.
