  • I stayed here for two nights. This first night there were 3 other guests.."Americans."
    the second night I was the old one there. Service was fine and you cannot beat the location next to Shibam. The room was clean however there were a few flys but by running the fan I kept them away so it was not an issue. Right now there is no restoration work going on in the city so the hotel was empty.

    Unique Qualities: It's right next to Shibam. There are other places..even one with a pool but if you want to take pictures of Shibam this is the place. It's a 5-10 min walk to the viewing area on the hillside across the main road out front. My last day they set up my breakfast on a table in the middle of the garden. I think Univeral Tours ownes this place.

     Brilliant General tip. They dont recycle, judging by the number of coke cans that litte the road. As for the discarded quat bags....

     Shiban is my main attraction in Yemen too - I am sorry you were disappointed. I do like the idea of getting the kids to pick up garbage for a tip. :-)
