I had a great stay at the Friendship International Hotel. Great, friendly, and very helpful staff, first class services, an amazing room with everything, all for a very read price. Very appealing and clean hotel with great art work. Only five minutes from the airport by shuttle in a beautiful and modern part of town. Will gladly stay here again on my next visit. JN

Nice hotel but could improve

I've stayed here at least 4 times in recent years. The staff is always friendly. The breakfast is outstanding. The wifi simply didn't work in the lobby or room, even after asking assistance, it still would not work. The bed is not comfortable but he area is nice and staff always helpful.

We requested transportation a day before our flight but in morning day of my flight the guy at the reception basically told us no, he stated "Tinesh atkoyum ende" while we had 1 hour left for our flight time, what kind of service was that, I mean he made it sound like we were his personal house guest, as a result we had to take a taxi to the airport. Otherwise, the location was very good. Thank you in general.
