Amazing hospitality and the best hotel in Medina.
Pros:

My second stay here Ms. Fatima and Ms. Zainub ensured I had the best stay. My flight landed early and I was allowed to check in early. The complimentary drinks, sweets and fruit were much appreciated and allowed me to focus on my prayers.
The breakfast was very delicious and catered for all

Cons:

Location to the mosque.
