I traveled to Saudi Arabia as a solo female traveler, and I found this hotel’s location to be incredibly convenient for getting around. What I appreciated the most was that everything you need is just around the corner (literally). There’s a supermarket right across the street, along with Starbucks, local coffee shops, and various restaurants. Plus, the Kingdom Building is only a 20-minute walk away. While you will still need to use a taxi or Uber to reach most tourist attractions, I truly believe the location is the standout feature of this hotel. The room I stayed in was spacious, and the bed was quite comfortable. However, I wasn’t impressed with the hair dryer—it was quite old, weak, and noisy. For someone with fine hair like mine, it gets the job done, but styling is nearly impossible; it just blows the hair dry. I also had a few concerns about the shower area; it could have been cleaner, the drain was a bit clogged, and the water temperature wasn’t quite hot enough. One last thing to note is that if you’re sensitive to strong scents or perfumes, this hotel might not be the best fit for you. Like many hotels in Saudi Arabia, they use room deodorizers both in the rooms and in the common areas. Overall, it’s a great value for your money, just keep those details in mind. Cheers!

الفندق رائع جداً من حيث الموقع والنظافة والإفطار. أما بالنسبة لتعامل موظفي الاستقبال، فأنا أشعر أنني لا أستطيع أن أصفهم بالشكل الكافي، خاصة الأخت السعودية (لا أعرف اسمها) والأخ محمود الذي يتمتع بأخلاق عالية وكلام جميل. لقد تواصلت معه قبل يوم من وصولي إلى الفندق بطلب خاص، وقد لبى طلبي بكل سرور. كانت إقامتي في الفندق لمدة يومين بسبب ظروف العمل، وكان قريباً من مكان عملي، وكنت أريد حجز اليوم الثالث في فندق آخر قريب من المطار، لكن بفضل تعامل الأخ محمود الرائع، قررت تمديد إقامتي لليوم الثالث في نفس الفندق. هنيئاً لصاحب الفندق بموظفين بهذا المستوى الرائع.
