Good hotel in Dubai, as quite centrally located and also very close to metro location. However, it is noisy, as the hotel right next to the main access road. The room so better to the side or back of chairs. Friendly staff, good breakfast. To the beaches in the morning there is shuttle buses, as well as to Dubai Marina in the evening. Overall good value for money, as rooms very big and (although it also more modern hotels there) and everything is right. … read more
