Constant theft in the hotel, on the last day before departure. I constantly rest abroad, but I have never seen such a disgrace. If you have gone somewhere, for example, to the fruit shop, in the evening before departure, you should know that you will lose all more or less valuable things from the already packed suitcase. My camera was stolen when we went to the fruit shop before leaving. They quietly opened the suitcase, there was nothing special from valuable things, and pulled out the camera. Thank God the gold and money were in my purse. I only noticed when I got home. I wrote a letter to the hotel, they said do not worry, we will figure it out and....no answer, no hello, for five days now. Although the cameras, they are everywhere, you can easily find out who entered my room after I left for the store. Cleaning was done in the morning, everything was replaced and changed. No one else was supposed to enter my room. And they did not think to look. My friend also wrote a complaint about a drunken tour guide from the hotel and the fact that vacationers from their side, who live in the Emirates and visit the hotel on weekends, men, take pictures of women in swimsuits on the phone, and then masturbate in the pool. Eww, so disgusting. We handed one over to the police, but to no avail... No answer, no hello. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone. Not even because theft from vacationers is allowed there, that is, they are covered. The food is disgusting, I'm not picky, but there is nothing to eat except fruit, everything is very tasty. Cleaned in the rooms so mediocre. Very bad hotel.

I won’t write a reservation right away about the transfer, which took 5 hours from al Maktoum airport, this is already talking about the Anex tour operator, And the problem is that many hotels are brought in and ours, unfortunately, was the last one. Rested with a friend 8.12. 17-16.12. 17 room 3114, for smokers, on the ground floor, reception on floor G. We settled quickly, a room with a kitchen, dishes and cutlery exactly 2 each (two forks, spoons, plates, bowls, cups, a large pot, a small one, a colander, frying pan, lids). Two separate beds, large, comfortable, mattresses are clean, the linen is pleasant, clean, the air conditioner worked perfectly, the TV is large, plasma, one channel in Russian RTR, in my opinion, the table is glass, two comfortable chairs, the bathroom is clean, shampoos, soap, hats for the shower replenished daily (shampoo didn’t suit me, my hair was dry like a washcloth). A set of towels was present, I requested a call to the room for bathrobes, slippers, an adapter adapter for the charger, Wi-Fi worked perfectly for two devices in the room, in the lobby, at the pool, fast and free! Cleaning is daily, the time is different, sometimes we asked not to be cleaned, because everything was clean, they wash the dishes if the sink is dirty! They should put sponges and washing-up liquid so that vacationers can sometimes wash something themselves, because if there is a lot to cook and there are few appliances, then there is nothing to wash with) Breakfast from 7-30 to 10-00 is excellent, pastries , juices of two kinds, fruits (watermelon, melon, orange, canned peaches. , sliced cheeses, sausage, vegetables, olives, salad, olives are always a lot)! kind of porridge, scrambled eggs either like a pancake or regular. legumes (something like soup) potatoes, rice, or pasta (1 time were on arrival) stewed chicken with fish alternated (not fussy but boring), tea, coffee, milk, or brewed or boiled water can be in bags (in the room they put water only upon arrival, tea and coffee were replenished daily). We ate our fill for breakfast, on the last day there was beef, they diversified a little. Cheeses are many and soft and hard and mozzarella. Every day chicken sausages stewed in tomato sauce, boiled eggs, delicious toast every other day, pancakes with honey. Honey and jams were also available. There was little time at the hotel, we did not find fault with anything. Transfer at 9-30 no earlier, a maximum of 5-7 people were willing to go to the beach and all Russians. Al Mamzar beach. entrance 5 AED, clean, beautiful, on the free left of the entrance along the black fence is dirty, some gobies and garbage. Those who will have a rest in pairs will have to go there to Mon-to and Wednesday is Women's Day on a paid beach. It's noisy on Friday, because the Arabs and many others spend the whole day with their families, fry meat in general, relax! Very, very many people. The hotel pool has a small depth of 2.3 only in a small corner, well, for a change, you can relax near it. Towels give enough sunbeds, umbrellas, tables. Sauna on the 4th floor in the same place and a hammam and a fitness room, separately for women and separately for men. Tennis court is - were not relevant to us. The location of the hotel is excellent, near the Al Nahda and Stadium metro stations, a supermarket store below, the prices are normal, the LULU Stadium metro hypermarket is larger, we went often, the prices are a little cheaper, and despite that, we often took shrimp for a promotion of 26 AED per kg. There is no noise from the metro, from the nearest DXB airport you can’t hear the takeoff and landing of planes either, but you can see it well! Caring staff and cleaning and in the lobby. In the lobby they will always help you to carry packages. they take you to the bus to the beach, you can count on the heads, back from the beach at 13-00, there is enough time, believe me, because you still have to go to the center for a walk, etc. We took a taxi twice from Al Mamzar beach to the hotel cost 19 AED. We were in the period of the Asian Paralympic Games, the people are dark, children and teenagers with disabilities, there is no crowding in the hall, they have fees, commissions, buses pick them up, bring them, etc. as soon as 14.12. 17 they all left, then silence and even became bored, there was a feeling that we were alone. There are McDonald's both on the territory and across the road, the shops below are expensive and about nothing, we took souvenirs in the Day to Day of the Union metro. All prices are 10 drh. . I liked the hotel, we only took breakfast and did not regret it, the kitchen is good, the service is good, there was no theft, we didn’t use the safe, one guy from the reception spoke Russian poorly, but we speak English there were no problems, Vav and so everyone will understand. On the third day, a friend had bites, as if bedbugs, straight patches all over my body, I had nothing. As we were told (Aladdin-excursions, guide Anastya, we took safari excursions from them) that this hotel has excellent service and there can be no bedbugs! But if the ants on the beach had bitten me, the midges and the husband and the mosquito weren’t there, it’s just that everyone’s skin is different, apparently they didn’t bite mine! We slept at night with a light to scare them away, checked the mattresses, the linen is all clean, but they crawl out when it's dark! There are two opinions on this matter, if I had been bitten, I would confidently say that the bugs, but here, my friend may have an allergic reaction to something, so she just brought it to the attention, for information. I don't want to tarnish the reputation of the hotel without knowing the truth!!! ! In general, I advise everyone, value for money, pluses, location, near the metro, a store downstairs, the food is good, but it alternates every other day, it will seem monotonous to some, but it is like that in many hotels! Anyway, at home we don’t have breakfast like that, sorry. Thank you chef. Iron and ironing board in the room, the windows do not open, there is no handle, but we were fine, we did not cook, we only made toasts and cooked shrimp. Bathroom, shower everything is in order, there is a clothesline, you need to pull it out from under the wall just above the bathroom. We were satisfied, if we have the opportunity, we will come again with pleasure!

I rested in Albustan in October 2014. I like it. All fours! It's really far from the center. It took us almost an hour to get to Dubai Mall and fantans. And the hotel is quiet. Pros: Proximity to the metro, shopping centers, good staff. DO NOT STEAL! Welcoming and polite. Sheikhs came every evening. We had dinner in a small restaurant on the first floor, they cook super! And the pizzas! Thanks to everyone who served us.

Three days ago we returned from Dubai. The rest is excellent, and I already want to go again, I didn’t have time to see everything. As for the hotel - everything is clean, neat, the staff is friendly, always smiling at everyone, a common language can be found. We only had breakfast buffet. Every day they served the same assortment, but there was always something to choose from and they tried everything in seven days.

Three days ago we returned from Dubai. The rest is excellent, and I already want to go again, I didn’t have time to see everything.
As for the hotel - everything is clean, neat, the staff is friendly, always smiling at everyone, a common language can be found.
We only had breakfast buffet. Every day they served the same assortment, but there was always something to choose from and they tried everything in seven days. There was a McDonald's near the dining room, where we bought food in the evening, it is round-the-clock and the prices are an order of magnitude lower than in the city center.
If you fly home early in the morning, you can ask for breakfast to be collected for the journey.
The rooms were cleaned every day, bedding, towels were changed, all shampoos were added. But for some reason they forgot about tea, coffee and water, we constantly reminded them. The room has a kitchen with all necessary utensils, iron, ironing board, hair dryer, air conditioning, TV. They have rezettes with three holes, they asked for an adapter at the reception, they brought it unconditionally. The windows in the room without handles, we wanted to open it, so they opened the window and took the handle away))))
Internet in hotels is expensive - $10 per hour. But our people will find a way out)))) There is a lot of wi-fi in the corridor by the window, although many are blocked. We found a free Linksay.
The pool is not big, there are sun loungers around, towels are given out, but we never swam in it.
The hotel has a gym, sauna, massage - girls from men separately.
Buses run from the hotel to the beach (9:00 and 9:30) and they also pick up from the beach (12:30 and 13:00). In the evening at 17:00 the bus takes you to Nasser Square and the City Center. Picks up at 21:30.
There is a green metro line near the hotel. Very convenient and understandable. On it we dashed off, did without buses. Worth checking out for everyone, very helpful. Taxi in the city is on average 20 dirkham, which is about 40 UAH.
Excursions bought on the beach, a little cheaper than at the hotel. I advise Modern Dubai, the Indian Ocean and the Capital of Abu Dhabi.
In general, you can write a lot, but it's better to see once, or two, or three)))))) My husband and I were satisfied with everything. True, 6 days is not enough...

The hotel is quite well located - close to the metro station, not far from the Lu Lu grocery hypermarket, opposite a couple of shops like our Sela. Yes, and in the hotel itself there are a lot of shops, a pharmacy, McDonald's and a couple more - another cafe. Yes, across the street - also McDonald's and a pizzeria.

The hotel itself is clean, tidy, the staff is friendly, helpful. They didn’t leave tips - all the time they forget to put water, then put tea - so there’s nothing to spoil! ))) Remind me - they will give)))
It was funny - they hung a sign do not disturb", so they didn’t ring the door about cleaning the room, but called on the phone! ))) And they put a letter under the door - like if you don’t remove the sign before 17.00, they won’t be able to clean our room) )) Damn... such caring !!! )))
The room has a kitchenette with all the necessary utensils - a stove, a kettle, a set of dishes for two persons, pots and pans. In general, the thing is necessary - they came home late - Dubai is a city of nightlife, and so there is nowhere to eat - and at home there is a kitchen in the room !! ! Voila - dinner is ready! In Lu Lu or Liu Liu, she did not understand how it is right to buy from ready-made food to semi-finished products.
The weather was normal, but sometimes in the evenings it was windy and fresh. The Persian Gulf turned out to be the Arctic for me - tin !! ! The water is cold, the sand is icy in the shade. So the pool at the hotel is heated - very handy - they sunbathed and swam there, even though it is small.

They flew on a burning tour from Kyiv. Tour operator Natalie Tur. Fly Dubai airline. The flight was delayed by 1 hour. The ticket price does not include food, but for reasonable money you can have a bite to eat. Aircraft and staff are good. We flew to Dubai in 4 hours and 45 minutes. Meeting party Alpha Tour. Since the hotel is close to the airport, we were taken to the hotel in 10 minutes by jeep. We were immediately seated on the 4th floor. I really liked the room. Everything needed for a comfortable stay was there. Since we had a tour without meals, we were very pleased with the presence of a kitchen, a kettle, a toaster, and the necessary utensils. Tea, coffee, sugar, cream and water were replenished every day. We have never regretted choosing a hotel and that we did not take food at the hotel. There are two supermarkets nearby, food prices are low, so there were no problems with food.
Since the hotel is urban type, the area is small. The pool is small but heated and clean. Once bought up, there was no more need and time.
There is a bus to the beach at 9.00 and 9.30. The queue is great. For two or even three flights they took everyone out. Back at 12.30 and 13.00. It takes about 10 minutes to drive. True, our former compatriots took the bus by storm, which was a little annoying. You can take a taxi for 18 dirhams. The beach is located on the territory of the large Al Mamzar Park. Entrance 5 dirhams. We went to the third beach. He is really the best, but further away, you have to take a walk. But it's worth it. It's cleaner and quieter, there are fewer people. The water was warm and clean.
At 17.00 they take the bus to Nasser Square and Deira City. Back at 21.30. We went a couple of times. They themselves went by subway, if they did not want to be tied in time.
Excursion to Abu Dhabi. took in Orient Voyage. There was a good Saami guide. We learned a lot of interesting and useful things about the country from him. I liked the trip. The White Mosque is a work of art, very beautiful. We also agreed privately on a sightseeing tour with an ascent to the Burj Khalifa. First we climbed the tower. This is definitely a must experience at least once in a lifetime. Then we were driven around the city, we saw all the sights. We were very pleased that we went individually, without any fuss we looked at everything and also learned a lot of interesting things. I was struck by the luxury and beauty of the buildings. How can you think of this and put it into practice? We also took a safari tour from the hotel guide, but we were unlucky, on that day it started to rain very heavily with a thunderstorm and the tour was canceled and the money was returned to us. We were a little upset, but then we decided that it was not fate and there would be a reason to come again. I would like to note the very good work of the hotel guide Katerina. Nice and very responsible girl.
We took the metro from Nahda station to Dubai Marina, and without leaving the metro we changed in the opposite direction and got off in the center at the Dubai Mall stop, but we were charged only as from our station to the center. So you can look at the city from above for almost free by taking the metro from Nahda station almost to the end of the red line in the direction of Dubai Marina and back and get off at Stadium station (one stop before Nahda). Picked up in one stop. We took a silver card, it is very convenient and there are no problems with replenishment at the terminal or at the checkout. You can look at the map in the subway everywhere and figure it out. It’s problematic to get to the metro only in the center, it’s not entirely clear, but you can still find it. It is better to first take the metro to the Dubai Mall and go in the direction to the Burj Khalifa for the people, and it will be clearer back. From the hotel by metro to the center with a change at Union station, it's a 25-minute ride.
We got to prepare for the holiday on December 2, the 41st anniversary of the unification of the Emirates. Lots of symbolism, lights, very beautiful. Unfortunately, the holiday itself was no longer caught, they flew away on that day.
We were taken back early three hours before check-in, but the flight was delayed at 1.20. In general, tired but satisfied, they returned home with a lot of impressions. It is a pity that there was not enough time to enjoy the beauty.
Output:
I liked the hotel, suitable for outdoor activities. The staff and service is good. Very calm environment in the hotel. Quiet, what you need to at least have a little rest at night, as they came late tired. You can not take food so as not to be tied in time. The presence of a metro station near the hotel helped to move around the city without any problems. To learn about the history of the country and the life of the people, it is better to take some sightseeing tour. A trip to Abu Dhabi helped us with this. We really liked the country. Emirates is an eternal holiday. It is surprising how such a development could have been reached in such a short time. It's just fantastic. Would like to return again. There was not enough time, it is necessary to fly not for a week. Can be in the same hotel.

We were there in October 2012, we were 100% satisfied with everything.
HOTEL
Large, spacious. Good transport interchange. Everything is nearby. Convenient parking place. Beautiful lobby. as in almost most hotels, which surprised us very much) -20 $ per day or you can buy cards for a smaller amount of time.
ROOM
Super: spacious, there is a kitchen with everything you need (from a fork to an ice mold). There is also a refrigerator, an electric kettle, a hairdryer, an electric stove, a toaster. Water 1.5 l is delivered every day; shampoo / soap; coffee / tea / sugar / cream....they change towels and even wash the dishes if they haven’t washed themselves. There is a TV with one Russian channel in the room.
LOCATION
-sleeping area - quiet and sopokoyno - an ideal place to relax.
-near the subway-5 minutes walk. For the money, the subway fare is 2.5 times cheaper than a taxi. there and back -32 dirhams.
- there is a Lu-Lu supermarket nearby. Go to it for 5-7 minutes . . the prices are the same as ours. Fruits and fish are cheaper. Some prices (in dirhams): dates-6.75 per kg, peeled and chopped pineapples-9.50, shawarma -4, huge shrimp-36.60, shark (fish for a couple of kilos) -11 per kg
-practically in the hotel-McDonald's and other food courts. And there is not a big grocery store if you don't want to go to Lu-Lu
It takes 25-30 minutes to get to the center (taxi fare is about 35-40 dirhams), to Deira - 15 minutes (travel is 20 dirhams). It takes 10 minutes to get to the beach (taxi costs 15 dirhams)
TRANSFER
-Daily at 9.30 to the beach at 13.00 - from the beach. And daily to Deira (Gold market, fish market and spice market - it's all there): at 17.00 - City Center / Nasser Square and at 21.30 back.
BEACH
paid... Entrance - 5, towel - 5, umbrella - 10, tapchan - 15. Water, sand are excellent, BUT... the beach is dirty: a lot of gobies . . I understand that tourists like us are to blame. but not nice . But there is also a plus - on the beach near the locker rooms there is a pump room with a cold one!! ! drinking water. so we didn’t take water to the beach, but on the contrary, we even took it “home”.
CURRENCY EXCHANGE
The hotel changed at 3.6 for $ 1. There is a bank nearby (a couple of minutes walk) they changed 3.67 there
EXCURSIONS
We took 3 at the hotel and one on the beach (in Aribia). On the beach it turns out cheaper, but taking into account that to = place. From where the bus picks up you still need to go, it turns out the same thing. What to order at the hotel. But here is the guide from the hotel to us I didn’t get any: by that cop, thanks to the guide from Arabian, I knew more about Dubai than she told us (((
I recommend a MANDATORY (if you plan to take them at all) safari and go to the water park, which is not transferable emotions. In addition to these two, we also went to the panoramic and modern Dubai with a visit to the Burj Khalifa observation deck.
p. s. In general, if we decide to go to Dubai again, then we will go to this hotel with pleasure. I recommend it.

- there is a Lu-Lu supermarket nearby. Go to it for 5-7 minutes . . the prices are the same as ours. Fruits and fish are cheaper. Some prices (in dirhams): dates-6.75 per kg, peeled and chopped pineapples-9.50, shawarma -4, huge shrimp-36.60, shark (fish for a couple of kilos) -11 per kg
-practically in the hotel-McDonald's and other food courts. And there is not a big grocery store if you don't want to go to Lu-Lu
It takes 25-30 minutes to get to the center (taxi fare is about 35-40 dirhams), to Deira - 15 minutes (travel is 20 dirhams). It takes 10 minutes to get to the beach (taxi costs 15 dirhams)
TRANSFER
-Daily at 9.30 to the beach at 13.00 - from the beach. And daily to Deira (Gold market, fish market and spice market - it's all there): at 17.00 - City Center / Nasser Square and at 21.30 back.
BEACH
paid... Entrance - 5, towel - 5, umbrella - 10, tapchan - 15. Water, sand are excellent, BUT... the beach is dirty: a lot of gobies . . I understand that tourists like us are to blame. but not nice . But there is also a plus - on the beach near the locker rooms there is a pump room with a cold one!! ! drinking water. so we didn’t take water to the beach, but on the contrary, we even took it “home”.
CURRENCY EXCHANGE
The hotel changed at 3.6 for $ 1. There is a bank nearby (a couple of minutes walk) they changed 3.67 there
EXCURSIONS
We took 3 at the hotel and one on the beach (in Aribia). On the beach it turns out cheaper, but taking into account that to = place. From where the bus picks up you still need to go, it turns out the same thing. What to order at the hotel. But here is the guide from the hotel to us I didn’t get any: by that cop, thanks to the guide from Arabian, I knew more about Dubai than she told us (((
I recommend a MANDATORY (if you plan to take them at all) safari and go to the water park, which is not transferable emotions. In addition to these two, we also went to the panoramic and modern Dubai with a visit to the Burj Khalifa observation deck.
p. s. In general, if we decide to go to Dubai again, then we will go to this hotel with pleasure. I recommend it.

I bought a tour through Sanmar, online very quickly and conveniently. We were not deceived, the quality is on top. I liked the hotel itself. Pleasant service. There are many shops nearby. The hotel itself has a swimming pool with sun loungers and parasols. The gym was very enjoyable. Clean rooms. There is also a children's center nearby.

I was pleasantly surprised that they provide car rental. Safe at the reception, you can not worry about your valuables. And all this can be said for a ridiculous price. If I hadn’t stumbled upon Sanmar, I probably would have bought a tour much more expensive.

The hotel pleased. Friendly staff, clean, cleaned and changed towels daily. They fed normally, almost the same thing every day, but without frank disgusting, it was possible to choose something and not remain hungry. The hotel is large, they responded to all requests (to bring water, fix plumbing) - there were 10 of us - sometimes 2 times.

The hotel is large, they responded to all requests (to bring water, fix plumbing) - there were 10 of us - sometimes 2 times. We only had breakfasts at the hotel, so the mini-kitchen came in handy - we could drink tea or cook shrimp bought in Lu-lu at any time : ) Tea, coffee, water - they left us in the room every day. The room has almost all the utensils, even a mold for freezing ice. The bus went to the beach half empty, to shopping centers - full. Al Mamzar Beach - I liked it very much, I recommend the far No. 5, it is almost empty and much cleaner.
I recommend excursions from Arabian Knights, I especially liked the guide Volodya (excursion to the Indian Ocean) - he gives 150%, next time we will go to Al Ain with him : )

We rested after the New Year holidays, out of six full days, four days were cloudy, cold and raining. As a result, it was impossible to stay in the room - terrible dampness and cold. Even things were all wet. There are no balconies in this hotel, and the windows do not open. the handles are removed, you have to call from the reception to open or close the window, which is very inconvenient.

Even things were all wet. There are no balconies in this hotel, and the windows do not open. the handles are removed, you have to call from the reception to open or close the window, which is very inconvenient.
I think the lack of balconies and opening windows is the main drawback of this hotel, because. remoteness is compensated by a free bus from the hotel. Getting back with him is not always convenient, you can take a taxi. Taxi prices are reasonable 20-35 dirhams per trip. (in rubles from 160 to 280 depending on the point of departure Nasser Square or Dubai Mall).
True, due to the remoteness of the hotel, there are still problems with excursions - representatives of the Aladdin travel agency generally do not want to take them on excursions, in particular on a sightseeing tour, from the hotel - only from the beach, and even very early. Arabian Knight is taken on an excursion, but they are not returned to the hotel, they are left at the Dubai Mall.
There is an agency at the hotel to pick up and return to the hotel, they don't mind, they just cheat terribly. TA representative Svetlana assured us - wait in the room, I will call when you are taken to the safari. We waited in a damp room for more than 2 hours until they came for us and there were no calls from Svetlana. The next day, Svetlana categorically refused her words, saying that we ourselves should have called her...
But the food at the hotel is very decent - fruits for breakfast in the range, pastries, cheese, porridge, etc. Everything is delicious and edible. The service and attendants are also at the level, the cleaning in the room is normal, they left tips for 5 dirhams, there was always a fresh bottle of water, tea and coffee bags. At the reception, they normally speak English, you can ask everything, because. the representative of the TEZ tour never showed up to meet the tourists, although we arrived immediately - 12 people, only at the reception they handed envelopes from the TEZ tour with prices for excursions.
I liked that the hotel has a sauna, you can warm up after cold and damp rooms. There is a microscopic pool and bleach shakes not childishly, but this is also a plus, because. in the presence of the sun, you can sunbathe near it, and the service at the pool is at the level and sunbeds with mattresses and towels are available. Unlike the beach, where you pay money for entry, and then you also pay for naked sunbeds without tables, and for an umbrella - a separate fee.
Al Mamzar beach itself is dirty and uncomfortable, but the park is super, a lot of greenery, equipped places for barbecues.
In general, perhaps due to the lack of good weather, the UAE did not seem like a place where you can go for a beach holiday. Shopping also did not strike the imagination - nothing cheap was found in the famous malls, although the shopping festival had already begun, prices were at the level of Moscow. We walked through fur coat shops, for good Italian fur coats from the latest collections they asked for an average of $ 5.000, hinting at a possible small bargain (Braschi, Pelicia, EGO). Chinese-made fur coats could be looked at for 2500.
I got the impression that one can go and see the country once, no more. Of course, the Arabs were amazed by their artificial islands, chic hotels Atlantis and Burj al Arab, and the tallest building in the world - the Burj Khalifa, sheikhs' palaces and the general standard of living of the indigenous population, as well as the competent policy of the country's leadership in the name of its people.
