5/5 Jibriil a. 4 years ago on Google
One
of
the
best
hotels
in
Somalia.
I
stayed
at
Towfiiq
hotel
on
two
different
occasions.
My
first
stay
was
in
11/02/20
and
I
had
contacted
the
hotel
before
my
arrival
in
Garowe.
The
receptionist
Abdifatax
arranged
for
my
pickup
from
the
airport.
I
was
greeted
with
open
arms
on
the
door
steps
and
my
arrival
was
expected.
Abdifatax
quickly
checked
me
in.
I
wanted
a
hair
cut
and
the
hotel
staff
made
sure
the
driver
took
me
there
and
back
without
extra
cost.
The
cost
for
the
pickup
is
$15-20
dollars.
I
gave
the
driver
an
extra
tip
$5
as
he
paid
for
my
hair
cut.
(Mind
you
I
did
not
have
the
option
to
transfer
money
via
the
cellphone
or
had
the
local
currency.
My
room
was
315
and
I
took
a
shower
as
soon
as
I
came
back
from
the
haircut.
There
is
room
service,
and
the
Towfiiq
restaurant
delivers
the
food
up
and
the
bill
is
put
on
your
room.
That’s
quit
nice
as
you
don’t
have
to
change
to
the
local
currency
if
you
only
have
big
bills.
The
food
is
exceptional,
and
it
has
been
by
far
the
best
food
in
Garowe
and
Gaalkacyo.
The
customer
service
is
amazing
and
the
waiters
are
quick
on
their
feet.
On
my
second
24th
of
February,
I
asked
to
meet
the
chef
personally.
I
thanked
him
and
complimented
his
skills.
He
explained
that
it
comes
down
to
the
vast
different
cooking
methods
he
acquired
in
Hargeisa
and
Djibouti.
Working
on
foreign
ships
and
preparing
meals
for
other
citizens
of
the
world.
On
my
second
visit,
I
had
the
opportunity
to
go
on
the
roof
top
and
view
the
whole
city.
Don’t
miss
that!
Towfiiq
Hotel
takes
security
very
serious
and
that’s
one
of
the
main
reasons
I
have
decided
to
write
this
review.
There’s
a
security
guard
24/7
and
even
the
security
guard
helped
me
find
the
direction
to
the
tailor.
The
hotel
is
basically
a
couple
of
minutes
of
the
travel
agency,
tailor,
mosque,
grocery
store,
bakery,
cafeteria’s,
barbershop
and
exchange
bank.
The
other
reason
is
the
young
hotel
manager
Aisha.
Aisha
was
hands
on
deck
and
always
in
the
hotels
vicinity.
I
can’t
wait
to
bring
my
family
with
me.
Thank
you
all
at
Hotel
Towfiiq
for
giving
me
a
wonderful
experience
in
Somalia
after
16
years
absence.
Thank
you
for
giving
me
the
real
hospitality
that
somalis
are
known
for.
God
bless
you
all
until
next
time.
