La Villa Hotel

Stay: 12 January 2017 (Thursday)
Booked by: Agoda
Paid: QAR 189
Room: 608

Located near Ghanim Bus Terminal, behind Kingsgate Hotel, 5 minutes walking from Museum of Islamic Arts (MIA).
Chose here because joining Ooredoo Marathon the next day early morning.

What I liked:
- Location, in souq areas, about 5-10 minutes walking from Museum of Islamic Arts and Souq Wakif. Lots of local restaurants and shops around.
- Good value, one of the cheapest options in Doha, renovated room.
- Room was small but bed was big. Room with window, good soundproofing glass window.

What I didn't like:
- No water kettle in the room. I ordered hot water for drink from the Room Service, they brought me a pot of hot water, but the taste of the water was awful, it was the taste of the plastic pot. In their newer branch La Villa Palace Hotel (I stayed in the previous week), it was available in the room.
- No hairdryer in the room. I tried to borrow but they said it was not available. In their newer branch La Villa Palace Hotel (I stayed in the previous week), it was available in the room.
- Room soundproofing was not good, could hear noise from the hall and other rooms.
- Shower door could not be closed tightly that water come out during shower causing floor wet. But better than La Villa Palace which had no choice than flooding the whole bathroom floor during shower.
- Morning call was 10 minutes late.
- Mold on the clothed wrapped drawer next to the bed.
- Wifi sometime stopping.
