The rooms were mostly clean but this is the best you can get for budget friendly stay.
Average 20 minutes Walk to Masjid al Haram
The staff and reception was open 24/7, and behavior of the staff was excellent.
But the carpets were a little bit dirty.
Hot water was available always
I was a little bit late to check out but they were lenient with me.

Staff was good however the room was not big enough for the three beds. Very tight space between the beds and beds and walls.
Washroom was tight as well, toilet seat was getting wet whenever,any one get showered.
Actually this was a double room in which three single beds were placed for three people.
Location was good in the sense that it took only 10 minutes to get into the Haram/ Kaaba.

For the price I paid I got everything I could get.
It was great for a short stay. The window was broken, the staff were very friendly and changed our room. And when we changed rooms I forgot my Apple Watch in the room, when we told the staff in short while they were able to find it and they brought it back to our room.

Great value for the location
I am giving five star grade as the bathroom was good, beds are clean, its close to the holy masjid and its very cheap. The service was good. They didnt appear to have hoovered the room, the tv snd fridge dont work and in general it's in a poor state of repair. This is a value hotel for you and your boys. Most wives living in the West would complain about the standards and the immediate surroundings. But like i said for the location its great value for 5 stars as you get what you pay for

Does the Job
Hotel is close to the haram. 15 mins walk up a hill. It is outdated and could do with renovation. Otherwise for a solo traveller it was comfortable. No problems with cleanliness. Bathroom outdated but it was clean.

Not bad
4 stars mostly because it is close to the Haram. There is a uphill to walk to get there and it takes about 15 minutes but if you're in good physical health it shouldn't be too hard. The staff was kind and helpful. The room itself was pretty small, not very spacious but if you want to be close to the haram on a budget then this hotel is an option. There's lots of hotels closer to the masjid on the same street so you can check that out yourself in person, though rates may be slightly higher. The area was nice, lots of shops and food around, just take a walk and keep google maps with you. It is a loud and busy street but i didn't mind.

“Convenient Stay Near Masjid Al-Haram.
Hotel Review: Al Sahaba Makkah
I stayed at Al Sahaba Makkah with my family for four nights during our holy trip to Makkah. The hotel is conveniently located near Masjid Al-Haram, within walking distance, or a short taxi ride costing 5-10 SAR. The rooms were clean and spacious, with basic amenities like towels, soap, shampoo, and an electric kettle with tea sachets.
The staff was polite and helpful, adding to the overall pleasant experience. However, the hot water supply stopped after the first night, and the carpets in the room could benefit from a deep cleaning. Additionally, the road in front of the hotel is under construction until Ramadan, making luggage transport slightly inconvenient.
Despite minor issues, the stay was enjoyable, with plenty of nearby shops and restaurants for added convenience. I recommend this hotel for its location and affordability, with hopes that management addresses these small concerns.
