Of course, I give all the stars to the hotel for the location and transport accessibility: metro (400 meters) and taxi using the Yandex or Careem application (it is difficult to activate with a Russian SIM card). Otherwise, the hotel is online, tired already. The staffs at the reception are adequate (Arabic, English, German). The payment for the hotel was made through the app trip.com with a Visa card and for some reason it passed. Well, not the point. They also accept cash. They also charge a service fee at the entrance of 100 Derham (~ 3000 ₽). There's a lady sitting at the entrance with some kind of muddy excursions. I didn't use it. Two elevators, ascent according to the guest's card, descent is free. The only advantage in the room is a KING SIZE bed with a good mattress. The air conditioning is centralized with a control panel on the wall. The rest is very lousy. A TV with one Russian channel, the laundry is not drying at all. A linen thread in the bathroom. There was a shower cabin in the room. The sound insulation of the room is quite good. There is a small refrigerator. The alarm clock TV and the drying thread in the wall did not work at check-in. I applied to the reception - they fixed it. The sockets are triangular, but the Apple plugs came in, the adapters if you want, in any store around, cost three kopecks. The carpet is carpeted and you need to take your own sneakers, there is no trust in cleaning what is in the coating, bedbugs, I do not know. Cleaning is done every day, but the staff is blunt. They don't take tips, but they forget to clean up. I applied to the reception twice for cleaning, they fixed it. Then they cleaned regularly. Towels are changed with cleaning. The standard breakfasts are the same without frills, but everything is there. Breakfast is usually included in the room rate. The rooftop pool is small with six sun beds, next to the gym is small with dumbbells and a track. I didn't see the rest, just an overnight stay in the room. The cost for November 2024 is about 15,000 rubles with taxes per night. Around the hotel there are cafes and restaurants of the local style of the district, you can eat, everything Vietnamese Thai around is not acceptable to eat, do not even bother, it is not tasty and expensive. Indian is so-so, fast feet are normal: chicken burgers. A lot of rural shops - water, juices, snacks. Sometimes there are no prices for products, but everything is clear after the first visit to any grocery store. Ready-made food can only be ordered through applications or bought in Supermarkets in the grocery department at the Marina (district). Near the subway, the supermarket cooks disgusting. There is a mosque behind the hotel. There is nowhere much to go in the area. In the evening, it is safe to walk from the subway to the hotel at night, but you do not need to click with a mitten. Hindus are Arabs, beggars and Negroes. Indians are all around - the largest diaspora in the UAE itself. There are almost 600 Russians, I don't know many others. After buying in any store, apply for TAX FREE, the purchase must be at least 270 Dirhams. Then expect that messages about non-payment of a fine and so on may come to the phone, the link is given at the bottom of the resume message - contact the police otherwise you will be damned. YOU SHOULD NEVER be fooled - these are Russian scammers. Wherever Russians settle in other countries, more than 60% are scoundrels and scammers. In Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, the UAE and further down the list. Russian Russian SIM card phone database is apparently being leaked by stores to Russian scammers. I received a message after a couple of purchases that I did not pay 500 Dirhams extra for the rental car. This is nonsense and I erased the message. By the way, there is no need to inspect things at the airport, except for Tiffany's, Apple, Dyson equipment. And no one needs the checks, so show them from afar. Everything is in the Emirates database: how much you bought and how much you issued Tax Free. There are many alcohol shops in Dubai, you need a passport or an application to download at the checkout. The price of alcohol is the same as in our AM or CiB. Pork products and all kinds of sausage hams are sold in all supermarkets, there is no ban, there are plenty of Russian products. In the subway, use only the "golden wagon", otherwise you can have adventures in public cars during rush hour. There are a lot of smelly people there, hard workers and Indians, etc. In general, buy a Gold Travel Card. As for this hotel, it's a weak three, of course, but the location is super because of the proximity of the metro and shops and pharmacies. It's worth the money. But next time I'll look at something else in the Marina area.

Level 6 Local Expert

The hotel has a very good location - about 5-7 minutes walk to the metro, 12 minutes walk to the mall of the Emirates. There is a lot of infrastructure nearby - cafes, pharmacies, shops. You can get to Dubai Marina by metro (4-5 stops), to Palm Jumeirah by taxi for 25-40 Dirhams (went to West Beach, if further, then more expensive). The food in the hotel is good, you will not stay hungry - there is a buffet for breakfast, a bar with a small but delicious menu is open from 12 noon to 3 am. You can also order meals by the pool. They did not take the deposit, although some resources say about it, but there is a city tax. In this hotel, he was 10 dirhams per day (worth bearing in mind when checking in) It is also worth noting that without English it will be difficult to communicate with the staff - there are no Russian-speaking staff. If you have tobacco intolerance, be sure to ask for a non-smoking room at the reception (even if you booked one, it is absolutely not a fact that you will get one) - the ventilation system is common, if someone smoked in your room or smokes in the next one, it will be strongly felt. Overall, a good hotel for your money
