Great overnight stay

Our flight arrived early so we were delighted that they were able to give us access to the room at 10:30am. Of course this isn't a given for every booking. The room was massive and included a fridge and jug (but no cups or any coffee/tea??). The hotel is surrounded by supermarkets, shops, restaurants etc so was very convenient for a one night stay. Only negative was there was a leak from under the shower screen so the bathroom floor was wet and slippery.

Staff are nice and quick to bring you what you need. Everything else is horrible. I stayed 3 nights and each night it became a ritual to kill 2-5 cockroaches daily. Even tho my budget was tight, I would have stayed elsewhere.

If u want to save money (Not worth it)

This hotel should be rated as 1☆. This is NOT a FAMILY hotel. The interior is so outdated and old school. The room had broken drawer. Bathroom Bidet spray was dripping rarher leaking. Toilet would not flush. The room had a false ODOR. You step out the hotel and your surrounded by women who provide sensual services. Hotel itself had mutiple south asian style Bar, where u watch girls dancing (Wont even call it a dance). Over all the location and price was ok but never again. YOU have been warned too.

El hotel esta ubicado en una zona de casinos y prostitutas. Vaijamos de Abu Dabhi a Dubai y no alcanzamos al bus de retorno, asi que resevamos de emergencia. Como no pensabamos quedarnos, no llevamos pasaportes. Cuando fuimos el holtel no nos recibieron, por los pasaportes pese a que se los enseñamos en foto. Tampoco recibieron el ID de nuestro pais. Al final tuvimos que ir a otro hotel y fueron mas amables y nos recibieron los pasaportes en foto. Encima de todo esto, el hotel no quiso devolver el dinero.
