Not worth it!

Old hotel, poorly maintained and definitely not 3 stars. Cleaning is not done properly, carpets are stained, bath tub is broken and bed covers are torn. Ask for non smoking room and you get a room with ash tray. When you ask to confirm it is non smoking the answer is it is but they cannot do anything if someone smokes! The cleaning and management staff are friendly but the ladies in the reception seem to be overwhelmed and not willing to serve the customers. If possible they try to ignore you. The whole property seems like a failing hotel which might be close any day...
Stains!

Great location - if the price is right

Short weekend stay for leisure purposes. Hotel was very well located for the metro,airport and shops and free parking. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Restaurant was good but I only had one meal there, and no breakfast. Room was sufficient in size and clean and the bed was comfortable. Free wifi was available but I had to keep logging in which was a little irritating. There is a nightclub (Indian style) but I did not hear any noise from it on the upper floor. No free water available but there is a mini bar. However, there is a supermarket very close by if you need anything. I would stay again if the price is right.

Book a better place if you can afford it

Was okayish I guess. Staff wasn't the most friendly or efficient. No training I don't think. Didn't like the fact that I had to leave my passport with reception. I've stayed in hotels in dubai before and I haven't had the need to leave my passport, they usually just take a photocopy of it. There plenty of room for improvement. Plenty.

Would not recommend

You get what you pay for. I made the mistake convincing myself that I would use this as merely a place to sleep. I've lived and visited Dubai for 5 years now. I can say this was the worst place I've stayed at. I checked out the day after my 6 night stay and moved to my usual hotels in the marina. The positive is its relatively inexpensive to hotels in downtown, the Palm or the marina. The negative is if you're used I staying at 3+ star hotels, not to mention 4 and above, this is unbearable. All the reviews about them wanting to keep your passport are true. Also they don't give you the room you paid for on Hotels.com. My room said it would have a balcony/patio. It didn't.

Economical night in Dubai

Stayed for one night and the neighbourhood was noisy during the late night, maybe because it was Thursday and Friday is a religious day. Still people talking at 3:00AM is unexpected. The hotel was extreme in it's regulation of mini bar abuse.

Don't hand over your Passport..

Spent the night there on a layover. I was warned that they keep,your passport and decided to go ahead because I only needed the room for a few hours and it's located near Union Metro. Unfortunately when I went to check out I had to wait 15 minutes while the customer ahead of me begged for his passport so he could do some business in Dubai. The staff were unmovable. They would not give it to him even after he agreed to put down a deposit. Next thing security is surrounding the guy in case it's gets ugly. On principle they have no right to keep passports and in any event it's bad business. On that point alone I will not be back.

Worst Hotel Staff in Dubai

If you want an experience of getting into a prison that is how you will be treated by the reception staff. They told me that want an deposit as they want to be sure you don't steal anything from the rooms What? I had a chat with so many guests and all got treated the same. What a waste for good facilities? Hotels forget that people pay for hotels for service and not to serve time. The housekeeping frowns if you call them and Internet is only one device next is chargeable at exorbitant rates. Oh fellow travelers you got to experience this bad experience to develop a taste.

Good Hotel Poor Staff

Travellers with online bookings are looked down upon. The reception staff is very rude and is not welcoming. They want a compulsory deposit of 500 Dir even if you have prepaid the booking else they will hold your ID or passport. Logic they gave for this is that if you consumed any items from the fridge or you broke the TV or furniture. That is the welcome you get. Most of all they are rude and arrogant and treat you like a prisoner coming to a jail and not a guest to a hotel. Do you want to stay in such a place. Although the hotel is nice and clean. Choice is yours. I will not stay here again even if they give me a free stay.
