"Great location in old Dubai, easy to walk to lots of places including a 2 minute walk to the Metro. Staff were all incredibly helpful and friendly. Our room was spacious with good amenities, only point for us was that it had no window, due to the style of the building. No problem, just not used to! The breakfast and the restaurant were excellent. There was a price limit on what you could order for breakfast which was a surprise to us however loads of options within the 'budget'.
