Good location in Hamra, walking distance to very good restaurants and a neighborhood feel. 15 minutes or less to American University. Very sweet staff. A very basic Lebanese breakfast on offer (tomatoes, cucumber, lebneh, hummous, bread), which we thought was perfectly adequate. No teapot in room, which we miss. Hot water takes forever to show up but once it does, it really does! Wi-fi does the job most of the time but gets slow from time to time. So, yes, there are improvements we might wish for but here's our bottom line: We booked 4 nights then looked around for a nicer place to stay, but for the price and value we decided to book another 4 nights at Orient Prince, so there you go. We'd come here again. Oh, yes, comfy beds and industrial strength air conditioning!
