If you are Algerian then this hotel would rate higher, the noise from the mosque up the hill before 4 AM may not bother some people. For me its the things like the room safe not working, that room AC air conditioner was more a AD minus, the breakfast was the worse in any hotel I have stayed in Algeria, and that is quite a few over the past 7 years. I didn't have a vehicle, but be aware the place basically has no hotel parking, and the road out front is always full. The only up for me was it location, easy walking to old town up the hill for restaraunts and bars. The area is generally safe, there is a small shop across the road for water, fruit etc.
