The rooms at Shady Transit Hotel are cozy and comfortable. I loved the private bathroom with a refreshing shower. The tile/marble floor gave a touch of elegance, and I liked having a private entrance. Some rooms even have a terrace, perfect for enjoying the view and relaxing.
Personally, I found the terrace a bit small, but others might still appreciate it.

From the moment we arrived, the staff were friendly and helpful. They even arranged a transfer from the airport for us, which was a great convenience, especially since our flight arrived very early in the morning. the hotel itself has a perfect location, just 2 km from the airport. Our room was clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the lush surroundings as we entered the hotel, which felt like a small jungle. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.
Nothing to dislike. 😊

The location of this hotel is perfect for those with late night or early morning flights, as it is very close to the airport. They also provide a shuttle service, although it is not included in the price. The rooms are clean and well-equipped, with everything you need during a transit stay. Additionally, the staff, especially Ashan, are incredibly kind and helpful, going out of their way to ensure a comfortable and pleasant stay. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe and well taken care of at this hotel.
One minor drawback I experienced was the lack of halal food options at the hotel. However, the staff, particularly Ashan, recommended a nearby hotel where I could find suitable food and even arranged transportation for me.
