3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2012

This 1970s hotel is very tired and as you look in the old dining room or corridors you might wonder what you have done. But the simple rooms have been recently redecorated and are clean. The hotel is safe and the staff very helpful. You can walk to the souk and eat for a few dollars in the Indian restaurants.... More

Pretty tough to find especially at night. If you’re not used to driving in Bahrain, driving through tiny one-way streets in the city center will be frustrating. The hotel looks like it hasn’t seen any remodeling since the 1970’s. Furniture, carpet and curtains all look like they’ve been used since the 1970’s. But the rooms were still pretty clean. Beds...

If you want to catch something nasty then this is the place to stay. Only good point, friendly staff.

It is a good value for the money, breakfast is certainly edible and the room was adequate. The only problem I had was getting my bearings. If you make a wrong turn when leaving the hotel, you can easily get lost in a maze of tiny streets and have the feeling that you are in some tiny backwater, however, the... More

Well if u r going to Bahrain to have some party then this is the worst place u will choose. The rate is cheap but so is the vicinity of the hotel. It is far from the good clubs or pubs. It is situated in the area of narrow streets and if we didnt had the GPS then we would... More

Great value for money. Much cheaper than other places available on the internet. It is centrally located in Manama just near the souk. The decor is tired and it is like being in a time warp - the 1970s. Breakfast is fine.

This hotel is nothing to write home about but it is a good value for money hotel. The hotel is clean, well located, serves an adequate breakfast and is cheap. The rooms are dated but clean and have all the necessary features i.e. bed, bathroom & TV. The staff were polite and efficient and there is good parking available outside... More

My husband and I are the kind of travellers who like to get out and about when travelling. The hotel is simply a place to dump some luggage and crash at the end of the evening to recover from a day of exploring. Although difficult to initially find, and a little noisy in the later hours, it was a reasonable... More

In spite of it is rated 3-star-hotel, this is really old one and quite basic. Moderate room, TV, fridge, bathtub, towel, hot water shower etc etc. Reception is open for 24 hours. You can arrive/check-in anytime :-) Unfortunately there is no no-smoking room here. First room they allocated me smelled so bad, what was worse, water started to leak in... More
