Location is very close to the blue mosque. Area feels very residential and local. Only gripe was that we expected to be at the hotel we booked the reservation at and had our taxi drop us off there. But upon check in, they told us we were at a different hotel. We had to backtrack and lug our bags with us to the other hotel in the heat. Was a bit of a waste in cab fare. They also didn't offer to help us with our bags at all. Was disappointed by this interaction. Once we got to the right place, all was fine. I can't say the place was as expected since we didn't know we would be at a different place, but the receptionist spoke good English.
