This hotel very modern, fancy, cosy, and quite a good choice for business traveler. Service of the reception was generally good, but some receptionists were full of passion while some were so calm that I think I appreciate they variety of characters.
The reason I emphasize it more suitable for business traveler is it doesn't have a bathtub, something I think needed for a vacation.
Although the Mall of Dhahran locates right on the opposite side and looks close, it still takes 10~15 minutes to reach it from the hotel on foot. Surrounding the hotel, there are not really choice of restaurants, so, be ready to dine in the hotel or take a cab/Uber to go out.
