We were pleasantly surprised by how modern and spacious our room was. Considering how remote the area was, we did not expect it. The room was very clean and tidy. There was a minor ant situation, but once food was properly stored away it did not cause too many concerns. It is in Oman, after all. The staff were exceptional. They were polite and courteous, and communicated great throughout our stay. The hotel is about a 10-minute drive to Wadi shab, which made going there back-to-back days very easy. The dinner (5.00) was a bit pricey, but there was absolutely nothing else to eat in the area, so it was fine considering.
