We are from Dnipro Ukraine. The choice for this hotel fell by chance. My husband and I went to the Emirates for the first time. At home, we read a lot about the metro, climate, weather, currency, sights. But such an emotional explosion of the brain was not expected.
The hotel does not deserve a ** star. At least ****. VERY conveniently located. La Mer beach within walking distance (15-20 minutes on a flat and straight path, beautiful scenery + free). Metro walk 35-40 minutes, we were also not strained. The hotel staff is good. Cleaning every day. If you have read previous reviews, you have seen - the safe is free in the room, there is a kettle, water, tea, coffee, sugar is replenished every day. The toilet is combined with a shower. Water does not pour out, as someone wrote. Liquid soap + shampoo is available, hair dryer is also available. Beach towels can be requested at the reception.
There is a transfer to the beaches and Dubai Mall, but according to the schedule, you need to sign up a couple of days in advance.

The food is normal. We liked it better than in Egypt, there are no national spices. You can change lunch with dinner and back, if necessary.
There is a Russian-speaking Annechka at the reception, very good, smart girl.
The weather was 25-30 degrees, sea 20.5. The temperature is comfortable, no heat. The water is kinda cold for me. You enter with an effort, but when you enter, you swim calmly and exit perfectly. After 17.00 it gets cooler. They put on sweatshirts, but it was not cold.
Where it's cold, where there are air conditioners, it's tough. They are everywhere: stops, metro, buses, malls, shops. The locals are smart, they wear sweatshirts. I recommend to follow their example, so as not to cough, as I am now.
What else?
Cultural program!
Everyone studied at home. Super flower park in Dubai. Every year a new composition. Dubai Mall is a must-visit: an aquarium and an underwater zoo (I don’t recommend going into the middle, just look for free, nothing super interesting. Those who were in the oceanarium in Moscow will understand me), over 1200 boutiques, singing fountains from 18.00 every half hour, Burj Khalifa. We were on a sightseeing tour of Dubai. Liked. Were in Abu Dhabi. Super. Do not take excursions to hotels, they are more expensive. On the beach offer cheaper.
In general, we received a lot of positive feedback. Roads, cars, safety, cleanliness, the sun in the end!! !
