Well, what can I say, the taxis are very cheap and will bring you everywhere for very little money. The rooms are huge, room decor and cleanliness was very good, only the check-in process left to be desired; mini-bar was empty, still flip-flops from the previous in the night table, bed linen was changed every day, that is the only way we can forget for example a towel to hang. The staff were the accounting of the breakfast disagree (signed, the next day everything was canceled, at the end nothing paid). The pool was okay, but old beach chairs, free shuttle bus to the beach (around eight and nine o'clock) a three star hotels and complimentary shuttle bus (several times daily) to Dubai in the center. So for a five star hotel a little lousy, even if ten minutes before closing a tea drink-not rude, but with a bad taste. Has a fitness center and sauna, but not diversity used. Many Russians, Bulgaria, which however didn't stand out negatively (except for entering in the shuttle)... They are not hotel and seaside holiday, but a good city hotel Dubai and Sharjah themselves who wants to see and experience.
