Good service, practichal location, space romms. need a better wifi and european channels.

By far the worst experience I’ve had in a long time as a business traveller. I thought instead of carving out $300/night for an international hotel, I’ll give this one a chance. Big mistake. Upon check-in, they were unable to find my booking, which they resolved by giving me a higher room that I booked, more expensive of course; after I showed them my *********** booking, they changed it back to the right room however, I got an upgrade because the original room was not available. Very nice I have to say. However, my room has no windows whatsoever, so I am completely locked into a concrete cubicle that has no view of any outside. The Internet in this place is beyond imagination, it even took a couple of attempts to write and save this review. Earlier this morning, I was unable to open any website. So if you think you can have a zoom call or watch a Netflix movie here, you are mistaken. I will never come again and if it wasn’t only for two nights, I would have checked out the first morning, that I woke up here.

It is a good hotel, but one issue is really annoying, the janitors clean the floor in the hallway with a noisy machine during midnight !!!

love it

Everyone was very nice and accommodating but they have some serious improvements to do. 1. The spelling of their property needs to be consolidated. It is spelled differently everywhere: Wurud, Worud, Wurood, Wourud, Woroud, Wourood, etc. It was really hard getting a taxi every time. 2. Their wifi was so weak that our phones couldn't even recognize there was wifi. I had to go down to the lobby to use the wifi multiple times. 3. Their shower smells very badly of sewers. 4. Their location is a bit unfortunate. The road system makes it so that taxi needs to u-turn a bunch of times to get there. (But Saudi has a weird road system all around so this is not really their fault. A place that would take 5 minutes in the US would take 15 minutes in Saudi) 5. They never cleaned our rooms, even when we had the "please clean our room" button on! We were out touring most of the days so it was ok but still kinda weird haha 6. Their doors don't close well so we had to go back and make sure to it is closed multiple times. (We had two rooms and both were like that) Saudi is a safe country so I wasn't too worried but it still should be fixed.
