A normal hotel for 2 stars. Among the advantages: good location (there are many shops and cafes nearby), friendly staff (there is even a Russian-speaking employee at the reception), very tasty, albeit monotonous food, transfer to the beach.
Of the cons: connecting rooms with poor sound insulation and unfortunately a cockroach in the bathroom. The most budget option, you should not expect miracles and luxury, but it does not hurt to have a good vacation.

At the moment (11.11.24) we are here.We visit the UAE every year and therefore I want to write about this hotel. Our opinion is that if you need a budget option, feel free to choose this hotel!!!
1) The food for 4 is fresh, there is not much variety, but we only take breakfasts to diversify our diet in various cafes and restaurants (there are a lot of them here).The cost for two people is at least in a hotel, at least in a cafe about the same (60-80 AED)
2) The room is small, but clean and cozy, everything is there to wash, change clothes and sleep. The furniture is old, but everything is there. The only difference with 4sv is that they do not give tea, coffee and water (we buy it ourselves). There are no bedbugs on the 6th floor in 612!!!I read reviews and get scared, I haven't heard from anyone about bedbugs from the residents.The water is running, the pressure is good, there were no blockages. The windows are really dirty, we just covered them up - what's there to look at? The room has a hairdryer and a refrigerator, although they say that not all have a refrigerator.
3) Cleaning is done on call, just when we go for a walk, we leave a request at the reception so as not to test our patience. The reception solves all the points and issues at once.The Internet disappeared - they gave it in 5 minutes! No cleaning- done in 5 minutes!Adapters for charging are NOT ISSUED (perhaps they were given earlier). The Internet is mediocre, we had enough.
4) The location is good, there are many shops and shopping centers nearby.He carries a transfer to AL KHAN beach, it is difficult to walk in such heat, it is simply unrealistic On the street +33, the sea +30 . I do not advise experimenting, they are taken away at 9.00, taken away at 12.00 and that's it. Many who want to go again after lunch, take a taxi in pairs (16-20 AED one way). The only big disadvantage is THAT THERE IS NO TRANSFER TO THE SHOPPING CENTER AND DUBAI AT ALL. Well, as they say, either a taxi or Yandex maps to help. There is a bus station nearby (Bus E 307 can take you to the metro station, for example, the CITY DEIRA shopping center (10 AED per person), there is a SUBWAY entrance right at the entrance to the shopping center, to the Dubai MALL (approximately +10 AED) per person.In general, another tip is to download the offline map of the UAE in advance in Yandex maps (it will work without the Internet, not as functional as with the Internet, but it helps a lot)And be sure to download the offline translator of Russian and English.
P.S. Indian cuisine is very predominant here, in fact, if you do not like spicy, warn immediately, you can remember and memorize just a few words and they will understand you (for example, KNOW SPICY is not spicy)(CHICKEN chicken)(beef beef)(MUTTON Ram)(FISH fish)

It's not bad for two stars.
Of course, shabby, shabby furniture, a bathtub, but the service is polite. Bed linen and towels are changed upon request. A two-room spacious room was allocated for a family of 3 people (a child of 12)! There were only 2 towels, and after cleaning they left 1 at all. But at the request they brought it for everyone. Cleaning is also on request.
The sheets with discreet stains were also replaced at the first request.
There is no need to wait for 2 * more. It's very decent for its price.
The breakfasts are meager, but again, they justify their price and the number of stars.
We rested in a two-star hotel for the first time, we can only compare with 5*, but given the reduced status and such a low price, it seemed very decent to me.
The curtains are blackout.
A hairdryer and a refrigerator in the room, a kettle were provided upon request.
There are no bedbugs!!!!! When all the tourists from the group checked in, they asked for rooms without bedbugs, to which the administrators simply smiled, they were probably all tired of these requests.
In general, there are not enough little things like toothbrushes, tea cups, a little more hangers in the closet and, of course, to put the bathroom itself in order.
The rest perfectly matches the level.
