✓ I stayed for 20 nights and it was very comfortable. The room was very clean, and although the building itself may not be new, it was well maintained and cleaned. The drains sometimes overflow, probably because water drains poorly everywhere in Oman, but as long as you don't flush the water all at once, it's not a problem. The breakfast was also substantial, with fruits, vegetables, omelettes, chicken sausages, and bread. The hotel restaurant has dishes that you can't find at Japanese curry restaurants, such as Kerala curry. The mutton biryani in particular is delicious, with the meat falling apart. The hotel cafe also has drinks that you can't find at Japanese cafes, such as saffron latte, and the Kouf milkshake is especially recommended. ◦ Since I was staying for a long time, I was given a discount on the dry cleaning service. They even ironed my clothes nicely, and I was impressed by the high quality of the finished product. ◦ The kitchen is fully equipped, so you can cook your own meals, and YAS Market, about a 3-minute walk from the hotel, is convenient because you can get everything you need, including food, seasonings, cooking utensils, cosmetics such as moisturizers, clothing, perfume, etc. ◦ It's a little far from the tourist attractions, but Fahad, who was introduced by the hotel, took us to famous tourist attractions such as Mutrah and Old Muscat, as well as a hot spring spot where you can bathe your feet, a relaxing spot for locals, and Seeb Souq, so we were able to visit many places. He guided us around various places with explanations in English, so if you are staying for a short period of time, I recommend having Fahad guide you. ◦ Bazar Market, about a 15-minute walk from the hotel, has a wide selection of abayas, hijabs, perfumes, etc. ◦ If you want to try Omani cuisine (Gulf cuisine?), there is a restaurant called مطعم المجبوس الكويتي across the road, with an interior that gives you a sense of Omani atmosphere and the food is very delicious. ◦ There is a mosque (Jamea Shaikh Mohammed Bin Omair Al Hinai Al-Qarshi al-Hassan Ali ibn Affan) about 20 to 30 minutes away on foot, which also has a library. There, I was able to interact with local people and participate in workshops, which was a valuable experience.
