The place is right next to the dead sea by a beautiful boardwalk. The hotel itself had a foul smell on the ground floor, and the room didn't look like anything in the pictures. The food wasn't amazing. and the room wasn't really clean, especially the porch.

When we first arrived we ran into an issue with an aggressive parking attendant. After speaking with the management about the issue they were very concerned and very quickly and contentiously dealt with the situation. I appreciated their quick and measured response.

They closed the pool and took away beach chairs at 5 pm! Were very rude about it too. No place to spend time in the evening. Only buffet option for food and it's pretty gross for a lot of money

I ordered a sleep at this hotel assuming it is as good as its grade. The room was nice, the balcony faced the Dead Sea and the view was great. Dinner was bad, half the food tasted like it was reheated several times, and the variety of salads was very minimal. The glasses were dirty, and it took the waiter 15 minutes to get new ones. I won’t elaborate about the breakfast, which was just bad. Overall, there are better hotels in my opinion.
