The stay was good. Good service especially the front desk staff very co-operative and helpful. Room is clean and surrounding is good.Room includes Fridge, Safe, TV, Tea/Coffee, Bath with bathtub/shower, Free wifi 24 hours, Hot water available plenty. The only negative is that there was no any popular sports channels or any English news channels for Indian news. The location of the hotel ideal for tourist since the bus/taxi/metro stations are very close. Overall it was good

Clean,comfortable and affordable Bur Dubai hotel
First rate staff. Nothing was too much trouble and I was treated as a valued guest at all times. Without exception every staff member I encountered made me feel right at home with genuine smiles and excellent customer service. I should say that this is not a luxury, flashy Dubai hotel but I felt it delivered remarkable value for the price I paid. Think Travelodge level rooms but with 5* service delivery.

I am a veteran hard to please customer and I give this hotel full marks for service. You never hear a no. From door man to the buffet staff to the house keeper. Nice location. Metro and huge mall with food court 5 minutes away. Moderate breakfast . Good bar. Live music. Value for money. I can't find a flaw to complain.

Awful, extremely dated rooms! Good service
The hotel is more dated than a Romanian Prison. The night auditor was fantastic. He gave us a suite. However the suite has never been updated since the hotel was built. The room decor is hideous, and that is putting it mildly! It's possibly the worse hotel room I've stayed in a long time. The food at the restaurant was very good! The lobby is average. The bar staff was very pleasant. Its not a bad hotel, the location is very convenient. But they need to seriously update the rooms!

Reasonable for 3 star but could do better.
Hotel reception more interested in getting money- the first greeting was about upfront payment of taxes. Hotel is ill equipped for good local maps or how to get around. No good metro or road maps.. Hotel did not want to know about the room specifications that we had in writing from Hotel.com.- so we had a down graded room. Breakfatst and House keeping staff. Reception staff and info let it down. Room service prices too high compared to other hotels. But goo local eateries.

Gruesome experience
I was very much disappointed with the hotel and hotel.com too. I had to fight for the room I booked. Guy called Prem at the reception was very rude. I had booked desert safari from the hotel and had told them not to give us the last seat in the vehicle. The time given was 3.30 to 4. We got ready 5 mins late and the guys started being rude. We were asked to take the last seat which we didnot want but we're forced to use. We cancelled our trip and demanded for refund or another vehicle but were not paid back and again the rude behaviour by an old guy called Edward.
