The location of the hotel was amazing which included parking at a nominal fee, the staffs were great and helpful and we enjoyed the amazing view of the castle from the room!
Overall, we had an excellent stay. The only minor issue was some water dripping from the top of the enclosed glass balcony during rain, which also occurred in the second room we were moved to. Otherwise, everything was great!

The room was in good condition, although the curtains were not fully attached to the track, which made it impossible to close them completely.
We opted out of daily housekeeping to be more eco-friendly, but this meant we missed out on having our coffee, hot chocolate, and water supplies replenished. It would be helpful if the hotel provided a designated area where guests could pick up these essential items themselves.

We loved the central location
The rooms don’t have air conditioning. You can open the window, but would be nice to have air conditioning as found the room to be a bit stuffy. This was in October, I would not book this hotel in the summer

The location is great, a couple of minutes from everything.
The staff team is great and very helpful and welcoming.
I wish i can see Shattaf set in the bathroom, and also mini bar fridge. Aside from this everything was great i enjoyed my stay.
Thank you Apex team

Perfect location. Nice lobby and rooms. Good beds. Very friendly staff.
Bathroom was a bit old. Food was left out in the stairway and smelled bad for a while even after removed. But staff attended to it immediately when brought to their attention.

So close too everything and we had a gorgeous balcony where we could see the castle.
Room was small, but that is normal there.

Location was excellent.
The two level of steps at the entrance that you had to carry your luggage up before reaching the elevator. Though the staff did help with it. Also, the hotel room and hallways were way too warm. It was stifling in our room when we arrived. No air con, just a table fan and the windows would not open. Maintenance came but could only get one window to open, the other needed a part replaced.
Thank you for your information!
