Great hotel! Friendly staff! 👍🏻👏🏻 spacious rooms, comfortable beds! Gorgeous Swedish breakfasts👏🏻 and in the evening, for an additional fee, we used their Swedish dinners, very convenient, after long walks to have dinner at the hotel and immediately go up to the room to relax! The location of the hotel is excellent, near the bus stop to the center, lots of shops, currency exchange, wonderful La Mer beach within walking distance of 7 minutes The area is Filipino, Hindu, but we did not observe any outrage/begging, we returned to the hotel after dark every day.
Overall, the hotel is wonderful!
12+ for all guests. In the Filipino-Pakistani district of Deira. Beautiful, well-groomed, bright. Excellent location and transport connection. We have never used a taxi. Between the center and the sea. There are many cafes and shops nearby. The rooms are comfortable. Three elevators. Excellent sound insulation. An important note is that the hotel is for non-smokers or non-smokers. The staff is English-speaking.
On the plus side: There is always hot water. Excellent breakfasts and dinners. Wi-Fi is everywhere!!! There are many relaxation areas in the lobby.
There are a few butts.
1. It is further to the sea than indicated. The distance is 2 km on foot or 20-30 minutes under the heat. Through several roads with traffic lights. The nearest beach of La Mer is no longer the same. But still, the toilet, changing rooms and a shower remained from the infrastructure. The bathing area resembles a paddling pool. The water is blooming.
2. In ordinary rooms, even if you have a suitcase of clothes with you so as not to wash anything, it is not possible to dry a swimsuit and a beach towel. It takes a day to dry in the room - this causes a musty smell to appear in the room after a few days. The air conditioner is centralized and lives its own life - it's cold, it's hot. Not a very comfortable closet.
Rooms on both sides. Those whose windows overlooked the neighboring building have complaints of discomfort in the reviews.
3. In the travel agency on the ground floor, you can only deal with their manager named Mikey.
It is well located. It is a 15-minute walk to the sea, the beach is urban but clean and lifeguards are constantly on duty. You can also walk to the main attractions of Dubai (the frame, the Museum of the Future, the Dubai Mall), it takes from 40 to 70 minutes. There are many small markets and a large supermarket nearby. The food is quite decent, the juices are natural. The rooms were cleaned every day. The room has everything you need: a hairdryer, refrigerator, kettle, cups, safe, slippers. On the upper floor there is a gym with exercise equipment, a sauna and a hut. You can use it at any time. Although it is a "three", it is no different from 4*, except that there is no pool.
