    The room combination of cleanliness and a nice pool area made for a pleasant experience. Unfortunately, the internet fees felt excessive. Live music events at the hotel added excitement.

    higher floor rooms

    Consider staying on higher floors to reduce noise from nearby nightclubs, especially on weekends.

    central location
    faded linens
    crowded reception

    central location, spacious rooms, convenient access to Deira

    Very noisy at night!!! Management should consider soundproofing the rooms and upgrading the faded linens and towels!!! The reception area simply cannot handle the crowds during check-in hours.

    filthy room
    pathetic breakfast

    this hotel is an absolute joke! the room was filthy—hairs everywhere, floors gross. and the noise, good grief! i expected a complimentary gesture for my troubles, but not even a discount. breakfast was simply pathetic with stale fruits. i almost wanted to leave a good review, but i just couldn't.

    decent breakfast
    relaxing spa
    enjoyable pool
    high internet fees

    The breakfast was pretty decent but could use a bit more variety as we were there for five days. The pool area was enjoyable, and I loved the relaxing vibe of the spa after a long day of exploring. One small downside was the high internet fees, which felt a bit steep compared to nearby options. 😊
