Food was okay, sleeping rooms are good but really hard to get. They don't have enough. The bartender was useless, not knowing how to make a decent cocktail. Entire lounge felt empty and sterile. The fountain is just a plastic tube, a bit of a let down.

I wasn't super impressed with my visit to the Al Safwa lounge.
