Thought I'd walked into a third world country.
Took a taxi from the airport and the taxi driver didn't even know where the hotel was located. Eventually found it by pulling over and asking another taxi driver. Main entrance was down a side alley but no access for the taxi. Had to walk down the alley with my luggage. Lots of building work surrounding the hotel, bricks and rubble strewn all over. Buildings nearby in poor state of repair. I thought I'd gone to a third world country. Have seen places like this on TV usually during a war report. Awful area. I arrived at the hotel at around 2.20am and was soon woken up by the (very) near mosque at 5.00am. Although it states that continental breakfast is available for X Dirhams there isn't any breakfast on offer. Very noisy throughout the next night, lots of banging and shouting. Car horns hooting most of the night. Poor sleep all the stay. Also cooling fan built in the wall was so noisy when trying to sleep.

One night at Rahab
My say was not bad. The culture is fine with me. The hotel need to spend some money and update furniture. Get rid of the busted chairs, have a clean working fridge in the room. The people are kind. They come from all over the world.

OK hotel if you want Dubai on low budget
OK hotel if you are on a low budget and want to experience old Dubai (Deira) with all the nations living and working there, away from luxurious and sterile tourist hotels at Jumeirah Beach. POSITIVES: 24hrs reception; lift; LCD TV with some international channels; comfortable enough bed; local area with some cheap food options; good and stable Wi-Fi; friendly staff; within walking distance to Spice Souk, Gold Souk or Dubai Creek; easy access with metro (Palm Deira Station, green line) and several buses (about 30 mins total journey from DXB airport). NEGATIVES: very old bathroom with some small animals; no cleaning or room service for 3 days; no towels in the room (I had to service myself from the nearby storage room); very old and noisy air-conditioning; dirty and not able to open windows; room would be too small for 3 people (I got a triple room but was alone, which was OK, but cannot imagine staying 3 people in that room); no food options directly in the hotel; a mosque right next to the hotel (so a wake-up call in the early morning guaranteed); dirty streets around the hotel full of Indians, Pakistanis, Iranians, Africans etc. All in all, if you dont have high expectations and pay something like 32-40 EUR per night for a single room (as I did), then hotel is a good option to stay in old part of Dubai for relatively little money.

Though I had booked rooms in Rahab Hotel, just after landing in hotel, they told me that room is not free. This was very disappointing. They offered me accomodation in some other hotel. But I strongly stuck for the same hotel as one of my friends' family was also in the same hotel. Finally they adjusted room for me. This is truly unprofessional in their part. Nobody from the hotel staff helped carry my luggage from my taxi to my allotted room on the 3rd floor. THank god, Lift was there. The hotel provided contact Nos were not reachable and the email ID was also not provided so that I can inform the Hotel about my arrival in the hotel.

Rahab Hotel - Dubai
The hotel Rahab is in a very congested business area of Deira Dubai with a many labour class people around from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran with some Lebanese / Syrian and Africans. The hotel reception needs to improve a lot on customer service skills. The rooms are average size but the air conditioning is very effective with a free WiFi connection. I found a few cockroaches in the room and bathroom which does reflect the cleaning standards of the hotel.

Very helpful staff, flexible enough for the price
I checked in without hassle, they didnt waste my time at all. Very helpful as to support with great willingness. They make you know what you need and help you make it happen and when i asked for help, they never said NO. The room was just okay for that price but not for a luxury stay as i didnt have a room with window to the outside. The bathroom didnt seem too fantastic but like an everyday old bathroom and had no towels so i had to request for this. They delivered the towel though after two days so i recommend you ask for the towel and stay there till they give it to you. They dont have a kitchen but can help you order food from any restaurant of your choice. They dont have a boiling kettle so if you like morning coffee like me, you need to buy a boiling kettle or travel with a boiling ring. Hotel is close to main areas, main market and walking distance to metro, Hotel doesnt have parking space so think carefully to call the hotel for help if you have bags so they can wait at the road side to help you carry your bags in since a car cant stay on that road for long. My Stay was generally very okay as i loved the customer service, They went extra mile to make me happy. They ensured i left the hotel with a wide smile as they act like family. I would stay here again next time but with my boiling kettle, request a room with windows etc

Good budget hotel
Simple hotel. Fair size room. Clean. No restaurant but many food places nearby. Internet works well. Airport, Metro, buses and taxis close by as is Gold Souk. Not a place to have your Honeymoon but suitable if you want a budget hotel. Other hotels in same category all seem to be smelly, noisy, hooker infested dumps so I recommend this place for the price.

Not bad for one of Dubai's cheapest hotels!
Considering that the Rahab is one of the cheapest hotels in Dubai I have been pleasantly surprised during my stay. The staff are all very friendly. The rooms are clean and fresh. Air Conditioning is cold. Comfortable bed and pillows. Fridge that works. TV and fast internet with small table and chair so I can work on my computer. Mosque next door is not too noisy. 5 minutes from Palm Deira Metro Station. Overall it is a lot better then what I was expecting!

good value for low budget
Hotel's correct contact information: Tel +97142723705, email rahabhotel@gmail.com, address Ayal Naseer Road (behind Bohri Masjid and on the same street as Hotel London). Not one taxi driver could find this hotel, even with map and correct address, so if you find Hotel London, you are close. Hotel itself is pretty basic, not luxury but clean and comfortable. Make sure you ask for a room with balcony, otherwise you may get a room with pigeons living between your window glasses.

Strategico
Posizione dell'hotel vicino la metro di palm deira ed ai capolinea dei bus. È situato nella old town posto non adatto per famiglie. Un po' rumoroso perché situato vicino ad una moschea. Personale gentile e camere munite di aria condizionata efficiente e rete wi fi veloce. Pulizie camera venivano fatte su richiesta.
