This is an old property, with bathroom design that was popular in 90's. In the downstairs toilet that I used when I arrived early at the hotel and was waiting for check in, I was greeted by a cockroach! Not exactly a good start to a hotel stay! The downstairs toilet was filthy throughout my stay there. The air con was working fabulously and the room had all the things you would expect including a small fridge, but no 'bar fridge' which I prefer anyway because we don't generally use it and have to wait for it to be checked when we are checking out. The location was fantastic for old Dubai and we were literally opposite a large mall called the Burjuman Mall and the Metro Station. If you need anything, there is a big Carrefour supermarket right opposite. The day pass for metro, buses and ferries included cost Dhs 22 each and we found that a good way to explore as we didn't want to go on a pre-booked tour...only down side is that there can be a lot of walking involved. The hotel had 4 different clubs, including a Bollywood Dance Bar, Live music bar and Indian music live singers and a Phillipino Club. Couldn't find any place like a disco anywhere nearby. I was later told by friends that these type of places are more near Jumaira Beach. Other advantages for this place is that it is close to the Gold Souk and Shopping. Taxi to and from Airport costs approx Dhs 50.
