I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, close to the Dubai World Trade Center and within walking distance of some fantastic Indian restaurants. The rooms were cozy and clean, but the lack of bathtub was a downside. The service from the manager and the team was exceptional, making me feel truly valued as a guest.
