The hotel is currently undergoing a major renovation of the lobby and other areas so take that into consideration. There is a rooftop pool, but that area is also undergoing renovation and is currently closed.
Pros:
The rooms are very clean, modern, spacious and worth the money spent to stay here. They are furnished nicely and there is plenty of storage space. As an American, used to american styled hotels, my room was quite large as compared to standard middle eastern accomodations.
There is a "kitchenette" area that is equipped with a sink, tea kettle, stand-up refrigerator and a two element hot plate/stove.
The bathroom is decently sized and equipped with modern fixtures and water pressure and temperature is great.
There is onsite parking in a garage located beneath the hotel that can be reached via the main elevators in the lobby and is wheel chair accessible. The garage is on the small side, but there is also a decent amount of street level parking.
Cons:
If I had to complain about anything it would be the front entrance to the hotel isn't easily identified. It is located on a narrow side street just past the coffee shop that is on the corner and there is no signage over the entrance. There is also no sign on the street advising you where to turn. Also, a sign identifying the parking garage entrance would be great.
I know that due to the architecture of the building, it is not possible, but the rooms need more natural light! There are only two small windows and even with the curtains drawn back, they are partially blocked and don't allow a lot of natural light to enter the room.
A few more towels would be great, as well as more hangars in the closets.
For $65/ (225 Sar) a night, you really can't go wrong. This place is a value and is in a great location that is within walking distance to a large number of restaurants and cafes. Two major malls; Al Rashid and Mall of Dhahran are just a short ride down the road as are a number of other shopping venues.
