It was not a clean hotel and looked completely different from the pictures. Our first room was awful, and they had to change it. However, the staff and workers were very nice and kind, which was the only good part of our stay. Tge area of hotel was so bad and not good for stay. Busy- dirty.

The room wasn’t clean, every day after coming back at night I found out they didn’t clean the room, after complaining they clean only one night the room. Also they refuse to give you clean towels. I even spoke with the manager Mustapha who didn’t do anything and only said “ Next time you here we will clean up the room” That was very sarcastic. The phone in the room also didn’t work It was a terrible unacceptable experience.

Not clean. The toilet was covered in human dirt. There was a door in our room that connected our room to the next room (519&518). They were smoking all the time and irritated us because of the tobacco smell and contamination penetrating through that door. Staff didn’t confront them.

Das Hotel ist in Ordnung und sehr sauber gehalten. Uns war das Halbpension nicht bewusst, dass wir täglich auf einer bestimmten Speisekarte kleine Auswahl haben und das Essen wurde in unser Zimmer gebracht. Wir durften nicht im Restaurant unser Abendessen speisen. Die Auswahl war täglich dasselbe. Der Koch Mr Rauf und das Servicepersonal hat auf unser Wunsch sich sehr bemüht, etwas abwechselungsreiches anzubieten. Gelang nicht immer. Aber der Wille zählt. Ansonsten würden wir nicht mehr in diesem Hotel Halbpension buchen. Das Frühstückbüffet war auch nicht sehr vielfältig, leider. Sehr standard. Wenig Auswahl. Die Mitarbeiter aber waren alle sehr engagiert und hilfsbereit.

Need renovation & pest control

I’ll start by saying that if I had a refundable reservation I would have left the 2nd night! The rooms are in desperate need for renovation, not sure if the furniture is old or they are trying to pull off a classic style, but for sure their showers, tubs, seats, flush & shower curtains need to be changed. Stayed 2 nights in the first room: Shower handle broken, can’t use the tub to relax as the water holder doesn’t work, remote control not working. I asked them to change the room after the first night they said they dnt have availability & that they will fix the problems. They changed the remote, it still ddnt work, the 3rd day I stopped having hot water. It is when I insisted to change the room and if they dnt have availability they can give me my money & I can go somewhere else. Room 2 I stayed 7 nights: Better than first room but still the bathroom needs renovation. To note that in both rooms I had cockroaches! & when I complained abt that they said they sprayed but can’t do anything more... several times I had to go back down to reactivate my key card. Not sure how they are operating a 4 stars hotel. Food not bad, though they dnt have diet cola only regular lol. Location is in older part of Dubai. Parking is available Supermarket around the corner Have a gym and pool but I Ddnt use. The staff tried to help & are friendly, but that’s not enough to run a hotel
