Hotel Sheherazade

The staff were very cooperative and tried their best to fulfil every wish, including carrying an extra fan to the outdoor dining area to help ward off the flies. They offered another room at no charge when the aircon in our room was struggling in the heat. When we had a flat tire on the way to the airport, the driver swiftly arranged another van to take us to the airport on time. Never heard a "no" from the staff. Te swimming pool was clean and inviting, fun to relax after a hard day of touring.

The aircon in the room was just not adequate. A split a.c. which was old & tired and could not cool the room. You had to sleep directly under the draft to be able to sleep. No toiletries in the room. Musty smell in the bath. No fridge in the room, nor any facilities to make yourself a cup of coffee or tea. No real room service 3 of us had a mild diarrhoea after the food - we ate exclusively at the hotel. The food was tasty and freshly prepared, but ... still. Too many flies around the dining area. Its quiet and peaceful but the surrounding area is run down, not in the best location, and quite a distance from the East bank if you are driving. To be fair, we stayed end of may, so the hotel was probably not at its best.
