Reds better signage. It is well off the road with no sign
Mooie kamer me terrasje voor de deur - zeer rustig
Niet makkelijk te vinden . Geen duidelijke aanduiding. Het is een kamer - geen ontbijt geen mogelijkheid om iets te eten.
The stand out feature has to be the staff. In particular Bahar - nothing was too much trouble. He really was the highlight of the stay, his hospitality was genuine and exceptional.
WE DIDNT GET BREAKFAST, WE EXPECTED TO GET BRAKFAST
THE AMOUNT OF THE ROOM RENT IS TOO HIGH.....PLEASE EQUALISE THE PRIZE OF THE ROOM FOR ALL.........
Really amazing place, next to view Point, the hotel rooms are very nice and very clean. My family and I enjoyed it alot. I would like to especially thank Bahar, he helped us a lot.
It was very nice and good! Worth the money…
Then make it better, can do some upgrades and maintain it in higher level..
الموقع ممتاز والاجواء جميلة
-رائحة غريبة في بعض الغرف ودورات المياة - عدم توفر مغسلة يدين في الفناء الخارجي
Very nice place, the homes are very clean, I would like to thank Bahar, who takes care of the rooms very nicely and helps if you need anything.
Location and number of beds
Not clean and
Clean place, with helpful reception staff
no drinking water in the room
Cooking accessories and the facility
There could be grass in the barren land
Amazing space with private outdoor sitting which makes a great experience
Clean room and huge living area
View from the room
Good location, not far to drive to the start of the balcony walk. The host was very pleasant. The exterior of the rooms is nicer than the rooms themselves, they are just a bit dirty, mat, curtains, bathroom, could all do with a deep clean. There is heating and ac so you can stay comfortable. The bbq outside is a nice idea but as we were there for only 1 night we didn't use it. Be mindful of the fact there are only a couple of restaurants you can drive to in the area (well you are up in the mountains after all). There is a small shop just a few minutes walk from the hotel. I think this place is suitable for a 1 night stay.
The room looked ok
There was nowhere to get food nearby and the property only takes cash. We didn’t have cash and the closest cash machine was a 1.5 hr drive, so we had to leave and find alternative accommodation and somewhere to have an evening meal
Really close to the balcony walk (10minutes by car). Possibility for arrange a self-Made barbecue. Is possible to dinner at the resort reachable in 2 minutes by car
Lack of wi-fi
There is everything you need. A store and the view points are close by. Very quiet and private accomondation.
No breakfast avaliable and no dining options. But there is a resort on the top (5min driving) that serves breakfast and dinner for a fee. No wifi avaliable.
Decent accommodation at a good price,.a short distance from the balcony walk. As mentioned by other reviewers there is no food available so you drive a few minutes to Jebels Shams resort where a buffet breakfast is OMR 4 and buffet dinner for OMR 7. There is also a very small food shop across the road & a decent coffee & cake place just around the corner on the way to the Jebel Shams Resort.
WiFi would be useful but we knew before this was not available and had a local SIM card anyway. Omantel mobile reception is very good at the accommodation.
Super close to the hiking trails, could actually see the summit of Jebel Shams from my bed. Heaps of parking. Nice quiet room with a decent shower. The guy working there was super friendly and went out of his way to assist us whether it was giving local recommendations or directions. We enjoyed the company of the friendly little cat who hangs around looking for pats. And for anyone reading this you can definitely drive up to the accommodation with a 2wd, the road is quite good even if it is dirt for the last 10kms.
Clean , nice room, good location
A bit cold even with the heating
good hotel and location
overl all good
Thank you dear bahar for helping us you are a good person the rooms are very nice and clean
Location and good value for money, barbeque area outside is great
Nothing
The location… very close to sunrise view point…10-12 mins to Balcony walk parking, has a kitchen place and sitting area… outside fire pit, and BBQ area… Mohammad Bahr was an amazing host… offered us the fresh papayas and bottle gourds from the garden. All in all well worth the price…
Spacious Room
No option for food nd water. No Internet as well.
Location , barbecue place , sitting area etc
Wifi modem was not working properly
Amazing location, just few steps from Jebel Shams View point and Balcony Walk. Really nice staff and everything we needed was there.
The rooms are separate buildings so with small kids you might need to split and sleep one child with each parent.
Clean, plenty of room, very much worth the price
It would be good if the fridge would've worked properly. But we only stayed one night so not much need for it after all.
Bahar, the employee working there was really nice. Clean spatious room
Cleanliness
The pictures of the room shown and what we book are different.
Very close to the canyon, the balcony and the jebel shams hike. Good options not far. Clean and new, nice people. Kitchen available.
Nothing. It is new so it need to develop a little bit, I m sure that will come.
Extremely uncomfortable bed
- the location and Cleanliness and maintenance.
- I had to roam around to search for the food. - They should start providing the Dinner and breakfast. -
Rooms are very clean and well maintained. maintenance boy is very friendly and helpful.
The most friendly staff. We were allowed to have a late checkout after our hike at Jabal Shams, so we could use the shower. The rooms have a nice little garden-like area with privacy.
Not a lot of restaurants nearby. You will need a car to drive to one of the resorts at night for diner. Bring your own breakfast.
The big television and water heater
They mentioned that they have PS 4 and XBox but there is no facilities of such. Kitchen utilities were none. No proper guidance to the customer about the amenities.
Wonderful location - comfortable, clean and quiet. The host was very friendly and helpful. We were even provided with a mobile hotspot. A restaurant ist nearby and offers breakfast and diner.
IBRAHEEM, my man. Ask for this guy! He really tries to help you out and is learning English on the go. Although still a long way to go we could understand him. Now the facilities were great. The owner is very nice and want to help. The give you a portable WiFi router (so you can take it anywhere over there!). The house smell new and look great. Althogether it was great!
Now here we have some point.although this guy was the cheapest out there he is still kind of expesive for one night. The balcony walk is still 5km away from the hotel, so if you have no car that is not going to work. There is no food… so either take your own or go to one of the resorts for a buffet (and again a kind of fridges walk). If you go by car you are golden. But personally we had a small rental car and it is surely not made for the unpacked road in between, so you need a taxi for everything. Unfortunately they know it and they ask outrageous prices. Altogether with going there and back and to the balcony walk and back at 6am it was 35 real for taxi’s, but I would do it all over again. Pricepoint and location are altogether not the best without a car, but great if you have one. Or is it made it a little more expensive, but it was nice to be out of the heat and that walk was so nice we sunrise, don’t go later than sunrise!! Trust us
The room was large and comfortable. Good Wi-Fi connection.
Cleanliness and location
Expensive, no breakfast with this price, no restaurant facility
Bed
Room not cleaned properly. no receptionist. name board not visible at nighttime. no one answered the call. several hours we stayed outside of the property.
Everything was very good
Very well maintaining the entire place. Caretaker Bahar is always very helpful. Nice clean rooms with all the facilities. Close to Jabal shams view point and hiking walk. BBQ facilities available. Mobile wifi provided by the caretaker. Very good location.
Better to have a nice visible name board for the place.
I like the location, close to W6 hike, the room has enough space and the outside retrage is really nice. There is wifi, water, a fridge, AC working good. Staff was friendly, we could extend our check out. Very good price.
The bathroom utilities were new and good quality but barely stable, tap of the sink was shaky, shower worked only the one from top and was leaking from the pipes, toilet seat was not fix (seems like whoever install the toilet utilities did it in 5 min watching youtube tutorials😅) Also i had to go to the watchmen room to ask for some water and was a disaster of hygiene. There were room bedsheets on the floor, random vegetables, garbage, personal stuff of the watchmen, water bottles, like whatever is provided in the room was randomly thrown in the watchmen s bedroom. Very weird and unprofessional.
Nice affordable rooms which are clean and neat. Great location.
Main door locks not working from inside.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
There was no hotel sign making it quite difficult to find the exact location even with the GPS. There are limited restaurants nearby.
The owner provided us a mobile wifi during our stay there.
The accommodation is not marked, so to find it is complicated
Superb location, clean and ample facilities and courteous staff.
nice property very close to Jabel shams view point and hiking walk. host is very helpful and very kind
Personal Location near the hiking path
Very quiet place and the parking facilities.
Thé bed are quiet hard, not so confortable.
Bahar was a very good host. He helped us with everything. Also that we good have dinner in a nearby restaurant. He made our stay very pleasant. He is a very nice guy. The location is not very far from the starting point of the Balcony walk.
There is no sign with the name on it. So you can easily drive past. The WIFI is not strong so we needed Bahar everytime to make the connexion.
i dont know
i booked for the date that i want. received message to suggest to select for another date & i declined. since that, no further message from booking or property owner. still thinking that i got the room for the preferred date, i started climbing to jabal shams. reached there just before the sunset & realized there is no room for me. owner said he already sent message via Booking. while i said to him that i saw the message & i declined to his proposed date. long story short. i dont get my room because the owner already gave to someone else. end up searching other guest house nearby.
Lovely location. Bahar was so helpful too and always there if needed.
All fine
closest to the view point, and the caretaker
The main door couldn’t lock from outside
Very nice place to stay with family, well organized separate entry, bar b q facilities , sitting arrangements, very clean room & very supportive Mr. Bahar ( the care taker). He was very helpful & always around us for any need. Overall great location.
