This is the first time I am writing a review about a hotel, although this is not the first trip abroad. The hotel was highly praised for us on tour. agency. After reading the reviews and looking at the pictures of the hotel, we chose it. We are among those tourists who only need to spend the night and breakfast, we are not very demanding. Settled relatively quickly, stood in line. For accommodation, they charge a tax of 10 dirhams per room. We were warned, we were aware, but some tourists heard about it for the first time. The hotel is clean, we cleaned every day. Towels were changed every other time. Vodichka was given to us once at the beginning and that's it. Tea and coffee were constantly left if the previous one was over. 2 times brought at the request of an ironing board and iron. There are no threads, needles, scissors (this is if something breaks like me, there will be no salvation). One Russian channel. The Internet is not so hot, it is difficult to talk on Skype with relatives. BREAKFASTS! Oh, so much to say! Meager is still to put it mildly! I know that the hotel is 3 and it would not be worth waiting for a chic table. But! Every day is the same. I can write the menu: potatoes, soy sausages and sausage, boiled egg, apples or oranges, butter, jam, cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, bread, old croissants (they are already a week old, or maybe more), soup, oatmeal, milk is everything. You won’t leave hungry, but you definitely don’t want to eat this on vacation every day! There are no normal cafes and restaurants nearby! There is a supermarket! They have fruits and yoghurts at reasonable prices. If you think that you will eat near the hotel, then you are mistaken. 1.5-2 km to go to the nearest cafes, as in the direction of the metro. We were leaving early in the morning and asked for breakfast to go. Attention breakfast composition: cabbage, carrot, cucumber, melon, 3 cupcakes!! ! And after that I realized that the Poles are not miser, but simply extremely generous people! Although we stayed there in 3 *, but the hotel and the food were super! Although then I said that they were miser. BUSES TO THE BEACH! He arrives and fills the bus, whoever did not have time was late and goes to the beach by taxi (30-40 dirhams). They asked several times to let 2 buses go, once they rolled, then they scored again. Beaches paid where the bus takes (Al mamzar beach park) 5 dirhams per person. Paid sunbeds, towels, umbrellas. With regards to the Dubai mall bus, everything is clear, arrived and left on time. Buses are free. In Dubai mall you can eat inexpensively, don't be afraid there are not as crazy prices as it seems. My husband and I avoided until we realized that this is the best option! And eat and look at the fountains, very beautiful! To goosebumps. Let's go back to the hotel. We lived on the ground floor, in the quietest room, as we were told : D But what about the Indians? ! Hindus who scream almost until the morning, and the construction site outside the window ? ! We opened and closed the curtains once during the rest of the holiday, the view is miserable and depressing outside the window! The hotel does not belong to a quiet family place, the eternal hype and a lot of people. I would like to note the Russian guys (Andrey and Alexander) at the reception are so smart! Very pleasant, they are the only ray of light in this hotel! Oh, and there's also a pool and a rooftop gym. The pool is not big. In the gym, running and dumbbells from 2 kg. With such nutrition, cardio will not be necessary for you! I am not enthusiastic about the hotel, although I understand that it is unrealistic to be delighted from a 3-ki. Recommend to add money and take another hotel than this one. At least because of the normal breakfasts and the beach.
