I would like to emphasize how professional, efficient, kind, elegant, courteous, helpful and cheerful staff at reception were. In fact among the best receptionists I encountered at any hotel in Dubai, and how nice it made pur stay. So congratulations to Anjana and Tonia, they are an asset for any good hotel.

The hotel I booked was the new one, but once I got there I was told it’s the older one… which I believe is misleading. The new one seems clean and is new. The other one is fairly old and carpets smell.

I will never come back to this horrible hotel

Where to start? I made a mistake while booking so I had to book 2 days and I arrived 1 day in advance so I had to book with them directly. Checking-in process was ok, the room was full of smoke like someone has just left the room. The bed wasn’t good and comfy at all I woke up with pain in my back. The buffet was ok but the waiter kept on asking to put the mask on(bar the foreign people of course l!!) My friend showed up at my room to say hello and the security guy (African guy) acted like he was undercover mafia at the left with us as later on the recipient called to tell me that you brought someone at your room send him back and ask him to present his ID lol what a joke! OTHER INCIDENT! When I asked for disposable cutlery and they asked me to pay 10 dirhams for deposit hahah. Overall, l will never come back to this hotel please seek other options around the area cause it’s really good. Terrible experience as the whole hotel was running by unprofessional and unqualified bunch of people.
