Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a large bathroom but uncleaned bathrooms at times. The service excels in explaining while waiting but could improve in room service and housekeeping efficiency. Located close to Dubai airport and major malls, the hotel is underneath a nightclub, which may disturb light sleepers. Dining includes quality international cuisine at Queen's Grill. The facilities are overall adequate with a few areas to enhance, making it a mixed but worthwhile stay.
