Hotellit El Makina

"The room and bed were comfortable. The breakfast was great. But I am only leaving 3 starts because they charge extra for the sauna. This is a problem as some people like to use saunas daily, not as a luxury. The pool use is included. Also, the hotel did not seem to work on common sense. They have weird rules and inconsistent communication. The receptionist told me that I dont need to bring a towel for the spa. I went to the spa and paid 250 dirhams for it. Then when I tried to leave, I got told that I cannot take the towel to my room. I only had dirty clothes. so they allowed me to walk to my room with a staff member, change into my own towel and hand the spa towel to the member of staff so they can take it back. I was told if I am half an hour late for checkout, I have to pay 50% of the cost of the next night. I think they should be more flexible. I was a tired, business traveller with long delays on my flight. I don't like the extra stress from pointless rules. Some of the staff seemed a bit hungry for tips, some were amazing and even refused tips. "
