"I never anticipated that staying more than 5km is more easier and accessible to Haram than staying in Millenium Anaseem. We have bus going every 30 minutes and back. You don’t need to rent a place closer to Kaaba just book millennium anaseem and you have everything. I will book again next year with my family"
