The hotel has some charm and a nice courtyard, but unfortunately, it falls short in many areas. The rooms could use a thorough cleaning and updating, and the dining experience was chaotic with fairly average food. While the location is convenient for desert access, the lack of maintenance and poor service definitely detracted from the overall experience.

Overall, the hotel provided a decent experience for an overnight stay during our Sahara excursion, especially considering the price. The staff were friendly, and the location was convenient. However, the facilities and dining options left much to be desired, with several issues in the dining room and room amenities.

The rooms were basic and a bit too hot, as the air conditioning wasn't functioning. We received only one towel each, and there was no fridge, which was disappointing.

While some staff were friendly, particularly the bar staff, I found the reception unhelpful. The service during meals was inadequate, as waiters focused more on clearing tables than helping guests.
