I was worried this hotel would be a worn down Novotel, but instead it was a very nice, clean, up to date hotel which was perfectly located next to walled city. We parked in the basement and walked everywhere from the hotel. The rooms were surprisingly well-sized, they were clean, and they were quiet. Check-in was strange; they have stand-alone check-in desks and as you might imagine, it doesn't encourage folks to wait in line; so that's a minor issue. Parking was tight, but plentiful. Surprisingly, the restaurants in the walled city stop taking new customers around 9:00-9:30 pm, so if you're used to a late dinner you'll have to adjust your schedule. That said, it's probably for the best because the wall-city gets a little seedy at night; you don't want to walk down the sidewalks without other people around. Hence, recommend you go to eat dinner around 7:00 to 7:30. Oh, the pool is a nice as well. It is large, it has a nice deck area, and it's a welcome site on hot summer days. The bar area is nice as well, and for better or worse, the bartenders leave you alone--you have to interrupt their conversations if you need anything. I would definitely stay here again in the summer months.
