As a wheelchair user, even though the ramp was steep - the staff went above and beyond to assist me in and out of the hotel needed everyday. Staff also assisted my belongings dropping it off in my room. On the first day waiting for my friend to meet, they offered me free apple juice in the morning. They were super polite and even with a smile everyday.

Moderate Stay, nothing fancy

A decent stay for an affordable price. Good connectivity with shuttle services to Mall of Emirates, The Outlet Mall & Blue Beach. Metro Station / Bus stop is a 5 minute walk from the Hotel. There are many food options available near by as well. Staff were very courteous and answered all queries instantly. Travel Desk was also available for tourism options.

We selected executive suites with kitchenettes. One would assume that if there was a kitchenette, there would be stuff in that kitchenette to prepare something, but, to our surprise and contrary to their website’s info, the kitchenette was empty and they refused to provide us with kitchenware, plates and cutlery. They charged us 2,5x more for the extra bed that I had asked for my son. The room wasn’t clean when we arrived and it was never properly cleaned while we were there. There were no towels in the swimming pool area and they didn’t bring towels even after repeated requests. Many more things were wrong in there.

A fairly new hotel that feels very old.

Good location near metro station. The hotel is about 10 years old but feels a lot older. It has a lot of maintenance issues. In our room the bath/shower tap was very difficult to use (nearly jammed) the toilet flush buttons were broken, the room safe didn’t work. But more importantly was a safety issue in the bathroom (and all rooms are the same) whereby the side of the bath has a very wide tiled edge which you have to step over to get into the bath/shower. Not so bad when getting in, but very dangerous when getting out wet. However the main bedroom was ok, quite big and a big comfortable bed. If you can get a good deal it’s recommended, otherwise look elsewhere.
