The room was clean and the staff were very couteous. The location was good. The ground floor entrance to the hotel was awful and very off-putting. But once you reached the first floor entrance it was fine.

Originally Beit El Kertlia, this historic home has so many grand rooms, ornate decor, beautiful courtyards, gardens and and my favorite part, the rooftop (you can see Ibn Tulum mosque from here). ⁣
