The rooms are quite neat n clean but fairly basic. Having said that, the price at which u get it, is absolutely a value for money deal. This is away from city centre - around 25 mins drive by cab n around 90 Dhs from hotel to Dubai Mall. But its excellent if you want to b around the Academic City area where there are many universities located, almost walking distance from the hotel. ##### Pradeep Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Apr 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Exce ##### John Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### BASHIR May 12, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice area but you need a car, ##### BASHIR Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean Nov 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great experience and quick service ##### Sean Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Apr 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Emergency stay Stayed during the horrific storm not planned but the hotel were good and helpful room service was nice and they helped me out ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Nov 24, 2023 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Good Hotel however Staff needs more training especially regarding cleanliness ##### Verified traveller Stayed 18 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### mobsting Mar 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A new quite area.
