Objective assessment, fully consistent with the price / quality. Of the minuses: location (far from the center), lack of a balcony, there was a view of the wall of the neighboring building. Although taking into account the heat. (we were out of season for the UAE, in the summer), we would hardly go out on the balcony Of the pros: there was a half-punch, they fed well, desserts for dinner, ice cream, there was even cheesecake once, 5-6 types of side dishes, always fish and chicken + 1 type of meat (beef, lamb), but all this is most often in a curry-type sauce. Chicken can be both in curry and without curry. For breakfast, delicious omelets, fruit - watermelon, oranges, melon. There were those who constantly said how terrible everything is, poorly fed, but I have traveled more than 40 countries and living in hotels from 2 to 5 suites, I write objectively: the price / quality corresponds. The reception will always help, 2-5 people are always there (both administrators and guests), groups coming from India. The room was cleaned every day, 2-3 bottles of water, tea/coffee were always updated. There is a small swimming pool on the roof from 8 to 20 hours. Below I attach the schedule of the free transfer from the hotel. I was unlucky with the bus from the beach only once (I had to pick it up at 19 o'clock in the open, but I arrived at 19.30 and said that I left earlier, because I was full, either it was true, or I decided to take a day off in the open, I arrived, the crowd rushed, but I closed the bus and went for a walk))) The rest of the times I drove clearly, according to the schedule. A taxi from the beach /to La mer beach costs 17-20 dirhams. A very successful beach, new, all the infrastructure is there, free, lifeguards, etc., in the summer it was half empty. Keep in mind that hotels in the UAE take a tourist fee WHEN checking in, we paid in dollars, without changing it to dirhams, since the hotel rate is lower From the pros: they do NOT take a deposit, which most often amounts to $ 200-500 in UAE hotels, which are then returned in dirhams on the day of departure and they need to change them to $ again, well, or they block it on the card (if they made a foreign bank). They subtract from them what you could damage (theoretically) or ordered to the room / used the services of the hotel. We didn't have this deposit, but we went with a package from a tour operator. I don't know how in other cases in this hotel. There was a long queue at the airport to exchange currency back. Moreover, the euro exchange rate was lower than the dollar (at the airport, in the exchange offices of the city a little higher).

A cheap option for a lot of money. A bunch of Indians, the staff doesn't care about everything everywhere except cutting down extra money. Transfer to the sea one minibus a day early in the morning and then if you get in. To go to the sea is like going to China. The beach is of course normal, but this is the only plus. At least the wifi is free. The pool is small on the roof of the building

Clean hotel, cleaning, linen change, often. They give you one towel. The hotel is mainly used by Hindus/Pakistanis, so it can be noisy in the lobby. The pool is clean, but for some reason cleaning is done at a time when there are the most people. You can also wash the floor after closing...

A good chain hotel, a concept for Asia. Russians are good here, the main thing is to set yourself up for a positive, then the weather is great and the sea is pleasant.

Clean, crowded, friendly.There are few Russians and Belarusians in the hotel, mostly Indians and Pakistanis.There were Germans, a little. The cuisine is sharp, monotonous, like the Indian continent. But always fruit, ice cream, cakes.There was both chicken and beef.Did not starve!))Overall, good!!!

We stayed at the hotel in November 2022, we really liked Showkat, who cleaned the room, the room was always clean. Complaints about how we were taken to the beach, there were not enough seats on the bus almost always. The food was good, the service at breakfast and dinner is good

The hotel is far enough away from all the main attractions of Dubai. It is located in the Pakistani district. You will be surrounded mostly only by Hindus and you will get the impression that you are in India and not in the Arab Emirates. The nearest metro station is one and a half kilometers from the hotel, it's hard to walk in the heat. There is no cafe nearby with food familiar to a citizen of Russia, mostly Indian cuisine, everything is very spicy, it is very difficult to find something that you can eat without consequences for the stomach. The nearest normal food in the burjuman shopping center is about 2 km from the hotel. There are a lot of people at breakfast, it's quite problematic to find a free table, all the tables are for four. the food is mostly Indian, but you can find something. There is a canopy on the roof of the pool without umbrellas, but it does not completely block out the sun. There are two European sockets in the room. The room is clean, but tired repairs were made for a long time. The pillow beds are comfortable. Every day they put two bottles of water, tea bags and coffee. The air conditioner works fine, but you can't set the temperature you need. View of the courtyard, in principle, the air conditioner is quiet a little noisy, But it's better than a room with a street view. A door without sound insulation it happens that late at night Hindus yell and interfere with sleep

Terrible hotel. For the first time we received such negative impressions from the rest. The rooms are small with a tiny window (and it is impossible to move to a room of the best category for an additional fee, since all the rooms are the same). There is humidity in the rooms-nothing dries out. Most of the guests are Hindus and Pakistanis. The food is appropriate, there is nothing to eat. To top it all off, at night, when the night bar is open on the 1st floor, prostitutes walk, offer their services. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

A good hotel to spend the night in Dubai. The rooms are very small, there is nowhere to hang a swimsuit to dry even. There is a rooftop pool. Cleaning every day. Buffet (food is mostly spicy) A small residue remained from the contingent of people living in the hotel. Visitors from India, Pakistan and neighboring countries look at the girls like wildlings. There are no complaints about the hotel in this, but I think it should be borne in mind.

Fuuu, the hotel is not for recreation... the stink, especially in the evening from the bar - as you enter the hotel and immediately smell tobacco. The food is not tasty and not even edible, one-sided (( there are so many people in the dining room that I had to look for a free table ((( Only the location saves him, otherwise a nasty hotel. I wanted to leave it on the first day!

I didn't like the hotel very much, the pool doesn't work, which the tour operator didn't warn about! For dinner, drinks are only water, the promised towels are not given to the beach. We left the hotel early, so we were given breakfast on the road - bread and melon not ripe!

It still doesn't reach 3 stars, I'm sorry. the guests are mostly Hindus. arrogant, annoying, noisy and brusque. when I arrived at the room, I didn't even have towels, I had to call the reception in the middle of the night. soap-snout, kst, it was close to each other, but I'm always with my own. there are no slippers. there's not even a wardrobe there, just a hanger on the wall. the room was 733 with a wall view on the 7th floor. the water is problematic, then it sparks, then ice, and the shower is embedded in the wall, if you are above 180cm, it will be inconvenient

I took this hotel on the assumption that I would walk a lot and just need a roof over my head. Deserves its 3 stars. I rested from 03/31/2022 to 04/11/2022. The location is great, lots of supermarkets, close to the center, close to the metro. The pool is a little shallow, but it's tolerable. The staff is amazing, cleaning every day, towels, gel, hair dryer, water, coffee, dry cream, tea and sugar - it's all there. The breakfast menu, of course, is monotonous, but there is meat, vegetables, and fruits. Several types of juice, coffee, toast. You can eat normally. True, the currency is changed at a much lower rate than everywhere else. Minus - there are no sockets near the bed. The rooms are clean. For such a price, I was satisfied.

A hotel for Hindus. They gave a room with a window to the courtyard, so there is a well, the sky is not visible. The next day they asked to be relocated. It is better to look for another option. If I knew, I wouldn't have chosen him.

The hotel does not deserve 3 stars, maximum 2. The pool did not work, in August!!! The room is battered by life. The room is very cold, the air conditioner is not regulated in any way. 15-20 minutes to the metro, a little far. The impressions were not very good.

Quite an acceptable hotel. It's a long time to wait for check-in until 14h, if you arrive early. Cleaning, towels, Every day. Drinking water, tea, coffee bags are given every day. There is a kettle. Condey, the hot water is normal. On the top floor there is a fitness room and a swimming pool. Quite a breakfast. I couldn't eat everything. I took it with me. The waiters themselves are recruiting because of the pandemic. Behind the hotel there is a very acceptable food point with different food, and chicken and more. The most important thing is that there are a lot of fresh and smoothies from different fruits. Very cheap 9.12 Drx. , it's 180-200 rubles. And they seem to work all night. I took it there after 00:00. Ask for "shawarma" and they will show you. The hotel liked the responsive guards and men at the reception. You can get a schedule of free buses to the beach, to outlets from security. Print out your transfer to the airport at the reception the day before departure. Liquid soap in the rooms is not very convenient to use) But it is there. La Mer beach is nice, but Dubai Marina is more beautiful. There are 2 metro stations at the same distance. One left to go from the hotel, then the right entrance. If you turn left when you go to the metro line, it's at the top there. That will be an inexpensive store. There are good bed linen and other cotton. And the metro to the right also has 2 Indian supermarkets. Another station to the right and immediately on the right turn. There are also large supermarkets there.

We are coming to Dubai for the second time, as we did not have time to visit everything we would like at once, for the first time in the Citimax Hotel Bur Dubai, Honest three stars, like the hotel itself! The staff is very hospitable, liked the restaurant, buffet, lots of greenery! With the exception of the disadvantages in the rooms, it's cool in the evenings even with the air conditioners turned off, the bed linen is wet, although they make it every day, change the linen on request, there are no sockets near the beds, you need an extension cord, there is also no iron and ironing board in the room, you need to ask, there is trouble with towels, also a big deficit, the first two days are two big and one leg, then one big one, one day! Two more days without towels at all! They applied, several times, asked, they do not refuse, but they forget everything! Or they don't have time to dry! So take yours! ☝️Hotel for the appropriate money! I recommend it!

A good hotel for its 3 stars. We rested there for a week in mid-December. They asked for a non-smoking room. I liked everything, cleaned every day, water and tea/coffee were also added every day. We took accommodation with breakfast, we also liked everything: the cuisine is both local and European, everything is delicious and quite diverse. The only negative is the distance from the metro, but there is a bus stop nearby
