мой отдых My vacation

We rest for the second time, we like the hotel, the rooms are new, not killed. The staff understands and speaks Russian, but at the right time for you they can turn on a misunderstanding. Transfer to Sharjah every day, to Dubai on schedule (hanging at the entrance to the hotel). The pool is small but the temperature is regulated. Sauna and gym free of charge. You can take beach towels by the pool (take cards at the reception). We took breakfasts and dinners - no need to worry about finding restaurants and cafes. They cook deliciously, if something ends, they bring more. But, probably, the cook has changed - the food has become sharper. For breakfast, 3 types of cereal (you fill it with milk yourself), oatmeal in milk, potatoes (mashed potatoes, fried, potato pancakes alternate very tasty), sweet croutons or pancakes with syrup, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs or something in the form of a porridge (delicious), sausages, fried bacon or chicken liver in sauce, two types of legumes in sauce (did not try), 2 types of sausage and 1 cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, sour cream, yogurt, prunes, canned fruit mix, canned peaches, fresh melon and watermelon, 2 types of juice from the package, water, tea, coffee, jams, butter, donuts, puffs, croissants. You can fry fresh toast.
Lunch or dinner - delicious soups, one dish of fish, chicken, beef. Garnish - pasta, rice, potatoes, steamed vegetables. 6-7 types of salads. Tea, coffee, several desserts. Water in the restaurant is free (in Carlton for an additional fee! ). If you buy lunch or dinner on the spot, it turns out to be much more expensive than when buying from an operator. There is an inexpensive supermarket (you need to leave the hotel to the left towards the ring, walk past the "supermarket" store and the fish restaurant to the mosque, go after it without crossing the road to the left a little, there will be this supermarket. Right behind the mosque in a high-rise building on the ground floor there is a shop with local sweets (cheaper than a supermarket), they collect beautiful sets according to your order. I didn’t like them at all (wasted money).
When we were in December, we went to a free unequipped beach (to the left of the hotel closer and behind the "lu-lu" a little further, in April it is very hot, so we went to the beach in "Carlton" (I bought a ticket at the reception for 30 dirhams, and on the last the day the girl for some reason took 35, although the neighbors paid 30 as usual). There are sun loungers, umbrellas, a shower, a locker room and a toilet. The water is very salty in the Persian Gulf, it burns the skin, so you need to rinse it off with water.

There is a representative of the tour company in the hotel, but other hotels have other companies. Their prices may differ by $ 5, but most importantly, the days and times of similar excursions may vary. This hotel does not have a tour of Dubai with a rise to the Burj Khalifa. You can buy a ticket to the Dubai Mall yourself, but today it costs 400 AED, and the next day it is 100 AED, and usually during the daytime (you have to go by taxi). Singing fountains open from 6 pm every 30 minutes. We used to take a shuttle to the mall and then take the metro to the Dubai Mall. A Dubai map is sold in the gift shop of any hotel (don't forget to bargain). There is a day ticket for AED 14, which allows you to ride all day.
Excursions are interesting, but sometimes a little crumpled, and they always bring them to some museum where you can buy gilded carpets, camel bone furniture.
In general, a quiet, cozy hotel. The first time we lived on floor G, the windows overlooked the road, there was a feeling that cars were driving over my head all night! get a room overlooking the pool or top floor.
Tune in for a good interesting vacation, problems can arise anytime and anywhere, but they are always solvable. Look at life with optimism and you will always remember this vacation as one of the best!
