Rany was an amazing host ! He showed me how everything worked and also gave me a tour of the place to show where everything was in case I needed something. Very accommodating as well ! The place was super spacious and it was like I was at the club with how the space looked like ! Would recommend anyone throwing a birthday to book this place !!

I recently had the pleasure of hosting my surprise engagement party at Rany's incredible venue, and I cannot express how grateful I am for the great experience he provided. From the moment I reached out to Rany about using his venue, he was nothing but accommodating and eager to assist in any way possible. His communication was prompt and friendly, immediately putting me at ease during the planning process. The venue itself was a gem. It was clean, he allowed us to beautifully decorate it, and had a great ambiance that set the perfect mood for the engagement party. Rany clearly takes pride in maintaining his space, and it showed in every corner. Thanks to Rany's support and the incredible atmosphere he provided, our engagement party was an absolute success. Our friends and family were blown away by the venue and the entire experience, and it's a day we will cherish forever. If you're considering hosting any special event, I wholeheartedly recommend Rany's venue. His dedication, flexibility, and warm hospitality are unparalleled, and I am forever grateful to him for helping me create the perfect surprise engagement party for my now-fiancé. Thank you, Rany, for turning our dream engagement into a reality. You are a true gem in the world of hosting, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. With Sincere gratitude, -Jake

The place is amazing for parties. Has cool lights & great features. It also had an awesome sound system that our DJ was able to use. I was particularly impressed with how accommodating the host was! Rany was really quick to answer my questions & also was so kind to help us bring stuff into the venue - truly appreciated his help. The night was a great success & I recommend this place to anyone!
