“Worth to visit”

Sep 14, 2025Wafa A

لقد كانت إقامتي في الفندق رائعة. كان الموظفون مذهلين – دائمًا متعاونين، وداعمين، ويفهمون احتياجات النزلاء جيدًا. أشكر بشكل خاص السيدة فاطمة، والسيد وحيد من القسم الإداري، وراجش من المطبخ الرئيسي، والسد سوجا من قسم تنظيف الغرف والعيادة وجميع العاملين على خدمتهم الممتازة. كانت الغرف تُنظَّف بانتظام، وقد قدّرت كثيرًا تسهيل تسجيل الوصول المبكر والمغادرة المتأخرة. كل شيء كان سلسًا ومريحًا، وبذل الموظفون جهدًا كبيرًا لجعل إقامتي ممتعة. التحسين البسيط الوحيد المطلوب هو تنفيذ مكافحة آفات دقيقة. ولكن بشكل عام، كانت تجربتي ممتازة، وكنت سعيدًا جدًا واستمتعت حقًا بإقامتي. أنصح به بشدة I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The staff were amazing — always helpful, supportive, and understanding of what guests needed. Special thanks to Mrs. Fatima,Waheed from administrative department & Rajesh from main kitchen، Mr. suja from house keeping, clinc section and the all, their excellent service. The rooms were cleaned regularly, and I appreciated the complimentary early check-in and late check-out. Everything was smooth and comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to make the stay enjoyable. The only small improvement would be happened to have accurate pest control. but overall, my experience was excellent. I was very happy and truly enjoyed my stay. Highly recommended!
