The hotel is in a superb location right in the city center, facing the iconic minaret. The rooms were clean but had some issues with sewage smells, which was disappointing. The staff was a bit uninterested at times, but there was a positive experience with another member apologizing for delays. Overall, it’s a decent place for the price, but improvements are definitely needed in certain areas.
