I stayed in a Cheez Hospitality property for a month while living in Beirut for work. I have to say that Cheez Hospitality is the best company for short-term and long-term stays in Lebanon! I was so lucky to be introduced to Joe, Fadel, and Bashir who not only were professional but incredibly kind, generous, and friendly. As the COVID-19 pandemic was spreading throughout the country, they made an effort to check-in on me, connect on a personal level, and even share their food with me. I simply cannot forget the homemade Lebanese dishes cooked by their moms and will return to Lebanon to join them once again sometime soon. Forever grateful for the support, care, and professionalism, and I highly encourage anyone to stay in any of their incredible properties located in very central locations across the country.
