Lack of Coordination by Hotel Staff

I had booked my stay at Swissotel for 3 adults and had asked for 3 beds but was allocated a room with 4 beds and accordingly charged extra . The Front Desk service was painfully slow. There was no response to any calls to the Front Desk did hours and to e mails I sent 2-3 days earlier regarding intimidation of my arrival plan .

Decent Stay.

We stayed here for 5 days for our Umrah trip. It was a decent stay. We are a family of 5, and we stayed in the room with 4 twin beds. The room itself was very crammed with all our bags and not much space to walk. The cleanliness of the sleeping area was fine, the bathrooms needed more cleaning. Overall i dont think the price was worth it, the elevators were always full and lobbies were crowded, however its close to the haram so it was fine. I wouldnt stay again.
