Passing grades in KSA or Ranada Encore
Asked for and was placed on a non smoking floor.
Clean room. Fridge not very cool. TV offerings abysmal.
However GOOD WIFI!
Brewed coffee at breakfast. Toaster and sliced bread available. Buffet did have one egg dish so as a westerner I could get by. Business clientele are not always countrymen. It will be nice to see better offerings geared to travelers from outside the KSA on buffet as well as FOX NEWS at least. It is available in KSA along with France 24. Hotels seem to be vacuums for news here. Many travelers want CURRENT and WORLD NEWS offered to us.
I like Ramada Encore enough tohave booked them 4 times this year

Internet does not work on the second floor.
Basement parking was full when I stayed there so I had to park in the street quite a distance away. Reception staff not interested to help with this problem.
So all in all the price for the room and what one gets (see above) is not really good value for money.
Breakfast was not bad.

This was one of the worst hotels I ever stayed in .
Here are the issues:
1. Th bathroom have several safety related issues :
When taking shower, the water flows on the floor till it spreads in the whole bathroom area ( photos taken for evidence ) . I informed the same to the hotel team and mentioned that I could slip on floor , but no one even bothered to follow up.
2. The flushing hand has sharp edges that caused me wounds on skin and bleed ( photos are available for evidence ). I informed the same to the hotel but no one even bother to give single call back to clarify.
3. The towels are very old and some are snatched with holes.
4. The reception team lacks communication skills and handling of clients.
5. Noise was coming form the piping whole night .I reported the same and they promised to send the maintenance team but nothing was done.
6. The room service extension is not picked when I phone several times.

- Attentive and friendly staff.
- Good bathroom amenities including dental and vanity kits.
- Although small, basement parking is a plus.
