Honest review
What could be better
- —The property must improve the reliability of the operator desk and ensure that internal staff disagreements are never conducted in guest-facing areas like the Club Lounge.
- —Management needs to address reports of "cold" or "condescending" service by training staff to provide consistent, warm, and unbiased hospitality to all guests regardless of their background.
- —The hotel should ensure timely replenishment of popular dishes and essential utensils during high-traffic events like Iftar, while expanding the menu to include more vegetarian options and local Omani specialties.
