The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very close to souk aldahb, and the electronic market, the only thing is catching a taxi (it very hard) the night clubs very nice three types indian, arabic and iranian.

the breakfast was good, quiet, lots of parking aound it , near gold souq and spice near shoping
reception people were so angry and mean. never seen like that in my life.
they werent let any of friend or relative stay with me in the room for more than 2 hours a day and werent let anybody in after 9. i had fight over that everyday with them , why my uncle cant come visit me after 10pm , i was trying to leave and get my money i was there for 6 days. it was good hotel, food, just one club(others are close)
Travel tip : everything was near hotel,shopping,night life,attraction,everything you want

it's not expensif, located in old downtown dubai, close to barguenning shopping
far from new dubai city, airport and attractions, takes time by taxi to travel to and from it, located in busy working class area. it's an old building renovated
for my busuness it was far to communicate everyday, so i was leaving early morning until late at night other wise i'll be stuck in the traffic, especially with the subway construction. you only see indian or philipino peoples, no attraction close by, and most of the taxis don't want to go to that area, you reserve a cab but no garanties it shows up.
Shopping Tip : you can make bargenning with the sellers, but be carreful of fake brans, they are everywhere

| Not a bad hotel to stay at !! |

Good clean rooms, room service.
I stayed here for only one day and it wasn't the best and it wasn't the worst hotel that i've stayed at. The rooms were good size and clean and the food was great !!

When we arrive the hotel, they could not find the booking record from Agoda but they helped us to stay there first. The hotel is easy to go for gold souk and around restaurants. Be carefull to find a taxi. It is a mission impossible there.

Front desk is trying to help you
Very hard to get taxi. It is terrible.
The hotel is close to the airport and the downtown area. It is easy to get various food and go around to see the normal Dubai people's life. The clubs there are very noisy so you have to be aware if staying there. The taxi is horrible to get so if you are on a business trip, it is better not to stay there or you should plan in advance for the transportation.

If you are going to the airport leave a good half an hour not 10 minutes as the brochures say mainly because of traffic and road works. We flagged down a taxi outside and had a drive around the sites for about 40 dirhams. The museum is well worth a visit at only 3 Dirhams for adults and 1 for children. There were functions going on near reception at night that could be heard in the bedrooms.

Do not book on the first floor, because of the clubs.
Three clubs availavle: Indian, Iranian, Arabic.
Travel tip : Located in a part of Dubai where normal people live, not the very rich!! Very pleasant.
