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.
