Can be improved. The bathroom is clean at least.
Pros:

The location is okay, very close to tourist attractions.

Cons:

There is no special parking space for guests. The AC also needs to be serviced, lights need to be fixed and cleanliness can be improved. The receptionist is nowhere to be seen, you need to call him for any inquiries.

Excellent location in a good price
Pros:

Location is perfec to walk around the city. Grabs easily available also. Room is very big, feels like you have a whole appartment (without kitchen). Bed is comftable, A/C works, hot water coming, hairdryer, little fridge and space to put your stuff to...Basicly all you need. 🤷

Cons:

Mosque is not good for your sleeping needs. Even with ear blogs you totally hear the prayers (and wake up on nights)...🙉
