No frills, good location, friendly staff.

This hotel is conveniently located to the Sabkha Bus station. It is also quite close to the Baniyas Square Metro stop. The hotel is basically a bed and a shower (the only thing I really need while traveling), so do not expect any frills. The staff was friendly and helpful when I asked for more toilet paper and facial tissues (my only complaint is that over a six night stay staff should have been able to foresee the need for these items - and a change of bath towels).

Good location to Metro

The hotel is in a good location, close to the Red and Green metro lines giving you access to every there in Dubai. Located in deira, plenty of cheap items to be found which are the same as those in high end shops.. Just with a markup! Slight issue with wifi being patchy, and seems to be aimed at African Guests which we discovered later, seems to be the exporting place to be..

Convenient and suitable for price

For those wishing to explore dubai by investing minimum on accomodation , this is the place.... Since we were usually out the whole day, this was a place for us to only crash at night.. So if thats the kind of hotel one is looking for, this serves the purpose. The location is lovely too with metro and bus station and shopping areas at walking distances

Noisy Air con.Lots of cockroaches in the room.

Rubbish was left in stairwells-wafting a stinking smell through communal areas and feeding the cockroaches. The aircon unit was badly fitted had gaps around it to outside and made a racket.

Hotellihuoneen varausta ja maksua ei löytynyt

Hotellihuoneen varauksen kanssa oli erittäin paljon ongelmia, koska omistajan vaihdos oli tapahtunut syyskuussa, ja entinen hotellin omistaja kielsi saaneensa maksun huoneen varauksesta - minun aikaa tähän meni noin 2.5 tuntia. Olin varannut hotellihuoneen kesäkuussa. Sain kyllä huoneen parvekkeella mutta ilman ikkunoita. Henkilökunta oli avuliaita ja hauskoja.

Nie wieder

Schlimmstes Hotel das ich je gesehen habe, das Personal ist zwar freundlich aber die Zimmer sind dreckig, es waren Kakerlaken im Zimmer. Die Fenster waren verschlossen somit konnte keine Luft ins Zimmer. Kaputter Spiegel im Bad und Dusche war kaputt! Nicht zu empfehlen
