8.6/10 Excellent! (1,010 reviews)
The quality of the Marriott was above and beyond! The food and drinks were excellent but way overpriced. Go out and visit the local seen. Food and drinks are way less than half of the price. Beautiful hotel with very friendly staff.

Besides being a rather dated hotel, bathrooms especially, everything else, service, staff, Location, was top draw. Perhaps a 4.5 would be more realistic.

#history

Originally Beit El Kertlia, this historic home has so many grand rooms, ornate decor, beautiful courtyards, gardens and and my favorite part, the rooftop (you can see Ibn Tulum mosque from here). ⁣

One of the many interesting features in this house, is an indoor well, it is in the first room you can enter to your right. They say if you stare closely down the well, you'll see the face of your lover staring back at you
