The metro is repeatedly described as walkable, with one guest placing it about two minutes away.
Several long-stay guests valued the generous room layouts, including apartments with balconies and private kitchens.
Reviews include daily cleaning, towel replacement and bed-sheet changes, with some guests praising especially thorough service.
Guests have stayed for several months and described the apartments as feeling like a home away from home.
Despite its central position, one guest found the hotel quiet and noted a nearby convenience store and bar.
Some apartments include utensils and enough kitchen equipment for guests who want to prepare their own meals.
Confirm booking. Reconfirm the room and rate directly before arrival; one guest reported a paid Booking.com reservation was refused.
Check kitchen. Ask what utensils and cleaning supplies are included before settling in, as one apartment lacked items needed to use its kitchen.
Ask about cooking. If you plan to cook, ask how the fire alarm behaves; one six-month guest had to open windows and doors while cooking.
Clarify deposit. Confirm the deposit amount and refund process at check-in, since guests reported delays and a separate 200-dirham deposit.
Expect repeats. If breakfast matters to you, ask about the current rotation: reviews describe good food but the same options each day.
Check access. If arriving by car, ask how the gate works; one guest said they had to honk repeatedly or go inside for entry.
Plan the visit
One guest received a complimentary 1bhk upgrade when a studio was unavailable.
Breakfast is available and was described as good, but several reviews found the daily options repetitive or limited.
The property has a rooftop swimming pool; reviews describe it as small, unheated and subject to closing times.
One recent review reported an unclean room, bathtub, bathroom floor and towels, so room condition may need checking on arrival.
Reviews describe canceled or refused bookings, including a case where a guest spent five hours outside after paying in full.
Guests have reported lengthy waits for security-deposit refunds, including repeated follow-ups over nearly a month.
Breakfast was considered good by some guests, but the same options every day became boring and the selection was limited.
A long-stay guest said cooking repeatedly triggered the fire alarm, while another found basic washing and drying items missing.
The Bottom Line
Class Hotel Apartments is built around apartment-style stays rather than a quick overnight room. Guests mention spacious studios and larger apartments, balconies, private kitchens, daily housekeeping, a rooftop swimming pool and a small gym. That combination makes the property worth considering for a week or several months, especially if having room to settle in matters more than polished luxury.
Location is a strong practical point. Reviews place the metro within a two- to ten-minute walk, with supermarkets, restaurants and a convenience store nearby. The hotel is in Al Thaniyah - Barsha Heights, and some guests found this part of the neighbourhood quieter than busier areas.
Breakfast is available and was called good or fabulous by some reviewers, though the repeated selection became dull for others. The experience is inconsistent enough to warrant a few checks. Many guests praise housekeeping and welcoming reception service, but others report dirty bathrooms, yellow shower water, noisy renovation, slippery bathroom tiles and weak communication.
Kitchen equipment can vary: one guest had almost all utensils, while another lacked supplies for washing dishes and found cooking repeatedly triggered the fire alarm. Confirm your booking, room type, deposit refund process and kitchen contents before arrival. Reports of refused check-ins and delayed deposits are significant cautions.
