We rested at the end of August 21. The tour was from August 20 to 28. The hotel was chosen based on several factors. Rating at least 8, maximum near the beach (up to 20 minutes), bus stops nearby, food is good, and of course the price. Holiday Inn Express Dubai Jumeirah met these requirements.
When checking in, Katya from Georgia was at the hotel, she speaks Russian. But we saw her only at check-in at night and in the morning at breakfast, she was no more. The rest of the staff only speak English, but this did not create discomfort, since communication took place through the translator application on the phone and everything was ok.
Upon check-in take a tour. fee, 70 dirhams for 7 nights. This amount was exchanged at the airport. There is no deposit. Beach towels are provided free of charge.
The disadvantages in my situation, which I did not encounter while relaxing in Turkey or Egypt, are 1) they promised a transfer from the airport, it was not there, whose fault is still unknown. We went by taxi, paid almost $15. Transfer to the airport was provided.
2) The moment of check-in and check-out is not the same as in Turkey and Egypt, and we found out about this when we processed the documents, and we were not even warned if we had not read it. If the arrival is at night, the room is usually booked in order to be settled immediately, if the arrival is in the morning, then the check-in, depending on the hotel, is from 12-14 o'clock.
Check out: our plane was at 3:2.28/08. The transfer picked us up from the hotel at 23:00 on 27/08. According to the requirements of the UAE hotels, we release the room, again depending on the hotel, from 14-16 hours. Or 110 dirhams, and your number by the time you leave the hotel. And if you have breakfasts and dinners on the tour, then you will have a paid dinner already. Or you could have lunch for free and pay for dinner before leaving. 1+1 child 10 rub. (age matters up to 12r) 55 dirhams. When in Turkey and Egypt we were under such conditions when a night flight could stay in the room until the very end and use the services of the hotel until the very end.
Here, after 4 p. m. , we sat in the lobby, since we didn’t walk much at +40, and we had to pay for dinner. Therefore, consider this. This moment somewhat left an unpleasant aftertaste.
We needed a room for an overnight stay, we are not whimsical. The safe was, but did not work, they had to repair it, but they never did, although they asked. The air conditioner was fixed when they said it had stopped working. The repair is not new. Windows don't open. Air conditioning and refrigerator work even if you remove the key card. The water in the shower was hot, I don't know if it's the only thing we have. The temperature control valve did not work. The room was cleaned every day, towels changed, 2 bottles of water 0.5l each. This is not enough, in the supermarket on the street on December 2, on the road to the right of the roadway there is a supermarket where you can buy 1 liter for 1.5 dirhams. But be careful, as the price tags are not everywhere or under the wrong product. The same 1 liter of another brand of water can cost 10 dirhams.
The hotel has a gym which is quite good.
Metro 40 min walk.
It's hard to walk in this heat and stuffiness. Therefore, in order to purchase a map, it is better to get there by taxi. Cards can only be purchased and topped up at metro stations. Or at bus stations, not stops! ! ! Either always use a taxi, or rent a car. The hotel has a possibility.
The food is wonderful. We took breakfast and dinner, dinner can be changed for lunch. Not such a buffet as in Turkey or Egypt, but you won’t leave there hungry for sure. Tea and coffee only in the morning, they are not available in the evening, you can take tea or coffee from the room and pour boiling water in the restaurant. You can buy lunch or dinner at the hotel. It will be cheaper than going to eat somewhere else. 1 adult and 1 child 10r = 55 dirhams.
The beach is good, there is a place to change clothes, a shower, a toilet. Sunbeds and umbrellas are paid, we took our beach carpet and placed under a palm tree. Didn't burn out.
The water on all beaches is different in color and transparency (according to reviews), we were only on two beaches.
La Maire only loses in water, or we fell into such a period that the sea was exactly there muddy and with spots of unknown origin. We were at Sunset Beach, which is before the sail, it is very good there, the water is clean and transparent, but there is nowhere to change clothes and toilets. And there are two hotels under construction, so the view of the Parus hotel is not so good anymore.
We visited the water park on La Mer. Budget, the cheapest in Dubai. Tickets were bought in Turistino. Cheaper than at the box office. Norm, but it is better to pay extra and visit another water park. Where will be much better.
I would return to Dubai, definitely YES, I am delighted with this city, but the hotel would be chosen differently.
