    great location
    spacious room
    poor wi-fi
    soundproofing issues
    basic dining options

    The location is fantastic, with a metro station and various amenities just a short walk away. The room was spacious and clean, featuring marble in the bathroom and nice toiletries. the Wi-Fi connection was poor and soundproofing could be improved, which dampened the experience a bit.

    Dubai vibes 🕌🌟

    Lekker location, close to the beach and a 10-minute walk to the metro! The room was spacious and comfy, and the staff always sorted my requests. Plus, had no issues finding nearby shops and restaurants, which was super handy!

    The Wi-Fi was a bit whack, so couldn't always stay connected easily.

    disorganized gym
    lacking cleanliness

    my stay was incredible! previously, i stayed at an older hotel, but this place was a breath of fresh air. the spacious standard king room felt luxurious, and the staff's attention made all the difference.

    the gym equipment was disorganized.
