The staff were very friendly and super helpful. I forgot the reception man’s name but he spoke with respect and was very hospitable. The rooms are average but I will stay here again
The man in reception works the night shift, he deserves a bonus for his customer service! Top man I hope he sees this review and feels proud for the work he’s done

I liked the location. The pool and the gym in the rooftop.
But the hotel is very bad, dirty no toilteries and no hand towel and after my requests they gave me floor towel.
The breakfast buffet is poor no variety, very few dishes.

Molto pulita e personale molto gentile. Stanza non insonorizzata (e purtroppo vicini rumorosi fino a tarda notte ma non è colpa della struttura).

Na 2-3 noce dla mniej wymagających
- czystość nie istnieje
- okna nie domykają się i przez szpary słychać głośną ulicę
- klima ma tryb działa/nie działa i jest bardzo brudna
- parking mały i wiecznie zastawiony
+ Średnio urozmaicone ale smaczne śniadania
+ Basen na dachu i siłownia
+ Miła obsługa
+ Hotel sam zaproponował dodatkowy materac dla dziecka, bezpłatnie
+ Przyzwoity internet
+ Okolica mieszkalna więc dużo knajpek i sklepików

Great hotel and pretty central
Excellent breakfast buffet with clean room located fairly central.
Only downfall was I was being charged for a full day for late check out despite confirming late check out time with staff the day before with no additional costs. I’m not happy with their aggressive behaviour and had I known a charge was added I would not have stayed.

Nettes Hotel mit zentraler Lage
Das Hotel war toll, auch wenn der Pool schon etwas herunter gekommen war, aber das ist eben Oman :) Das Zimmer war sauber und sehr groß, sogar mit Küche. Leider war es etwas dunkel, aber dafür auch nie zu warm :) Es gab sogar eine Waschmaschine! Das Frühstück war auch sehr lecker und für Oman vielfältig.

a disappointed getaway
very uncomfortable; A/C wasn't that cool considering that it was summer in Oman (upwards of 40 degrees Celsius) even if we checked-in after midnight.
WiFi was patchy and there were lights that weren't working so the room was kinda dark.
already stayed in hotels around Muscat which were way cheaper but more comfortable; this looks like a motel
