The neighbourhood was very noisy of an evening & continued well into the early hours of the morning. In all fairness to Saban, the noise was no fault of his. The Blue Mosque was very close so we were woken by call to prayers at midnight & again in the small hours of the morning. The neighbours were very loud as well. On the bright side , it was an extremely clean apartment kept that way by 2 lovely cleaning ladies that came every day . They cleaned, washed the dishes , replaced the towels & made the bed. The entrance to the apartment is a real eyesore but once up there everything is great. The airconditioning was a real godsend, much appreciated in the high temperatures we experienced. The hosts were helpful . We had organised an airport pickup which I would recommend, even though initially there was some confusion .
