We have been to the UAE countless times since 1995, visited many good (Jumeirah) and not good hotels, so there is something to compare with.
1. The hotel is a bit old but well-trained in the best traditions of Arab ethics
2. Amazing breakfasts - everything is there and everything is very tasty
3. All rooms with sea view - it is better to take a higher view - the view is better
4. The rooms are immaculate
5. Small pool - not at all modern and did not want to swim in it
6. The beach is great - plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas
7. Hotel security is serious - although friends came to visit and entered the hotel and the beach for free (entrance 120 DH)
8. When the hotel is full there is not enough transfer - a taxi to Dubai is very expensive - 150 derhams

9. Being at the extreme point of Ajman and you can’t do without a rental car - they took 100 derhams a day for 7 days, free gasoline for all the time dashed off 120 derhams. The deposit for the car is 200-300 dollars, but they give it back next time upon arrival although they promise to send, but as a rule they pull and reluctantly give the deposit.
10. SPA in the hotel did not watch, the shops are so-so
11. The reception is kind of gloomy - we tried to quickly run through it
12. The hotel is generally not bad, but children after 12 years old are no longer accommodated in a room, which became the reason for refusing it, and in a week the family is already flying to the chic ultra-modern Ajman Palace 5 *** that has just opened next to it for $ 1.400 for two and which is $800 even cheaper than this outdated hotel.
13. The price of Kempinski is constantly kept at the level of 1000 dollars per person.
