Better option in economy hotels for those who prefer to stay close to Haram. Decent en suite room size with kitchenette, although kitchenette is not equipped with any plates/cutlery but still handy for especially for those staying with kids. Small size fridge is available. Shower facility in the bathroom is very small with no screen/curtain to prevent shower water making puddles in rest of the bathroom. This is really annoying especially for those with Ehrams. Hair dryer is available. Rooms and lobbies are carpeted. Hotel reception could do with better customer service and overcoming English language barrier. Housekeeping is not proactive, you have to ask reception if runs out anything. 8 lifts help keeping the flow smooth. Gents barber, grocery, couple of gift shops are located inside the hotel on ground floor. Barber changes 15 SAR for hair cut. Hotel do have a restaurant on 2nd floor and a mosque (with women praying facility as well) on the first floor. Hotel offers very good shuttle service to and from Haram all day long. Shuttle takes up to 5 mins to get to Jarwal bus station, from where it is a 15 min (mostly steep) walk to Haram extension 3. In case you miss the shuttle it'd take you 10 mins by foot to Jarwal station. Some taxi fares from hotel. Although it depends on time of the day but generally: - To Haram: 10 SAR - To Masjid Ayesha: 20 SAR - To Jabal al Nour: 20 SAR - To Makkah Railway Station (for Harmain): 35 SAR - To Jeddah Airport: up to 150 SAR On 2 min walk from hotel you will find a Bangali take away food, supermarket, laundry, fast food restaurant and money exchange shop.
