I could not sleep due constant banging in the room next to my room and smell of cooking every morning in that same room that I was awakened by. I put on do not disturb and was still disturbed by hotel staff about cleaning the room. DND is just what it is DND! Restaurant food choices were very limited and the one thing I did order was under season and not tasty at all. We were harassed by the by the gift shop store employee inside of the hotel to try tea and by gifts after we said several times we were not interested he followed us outside to the pool area and continued to ask and afterwards we was approached by the female employee about getting henna done. At checkout I was told that I used the mini bar in my room and I never even touched anything from the mini bar. I noticed that after my room was clean the cleaning staff checked the refrigerator to see if anything was missing from the refrigerator because they never fully closed the door on the refrigerator. We had went to the supermarket and brought fresh fruit and water for our room because the mini bar items were over priced and the items looked like they haven’t been changed since they put them in the room.

The hotel staff were lovely. They are building a new hotel right in front of this hotel, so you could be facing a building site unless your room is on the other side. Nice and quiet hotel if you are looking for a relaxing break. Just to point out this hotel is on the palm so you need to get taxi’s everywhere you want to go if you want to get out and explore.
