I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel is ideally located in the heart of 'old Dubai,' offering stunning views of the creek and easy access to the vibrant souks. The rooms are impeccably kept and offer a charming balcony to soak in the breathtaking scenery. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our New Year's Eve was unforgettable, going the extra mile when transport plans took an unexpected turn. However, the management left a bit to be desired in terms of their hospitality approach.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The beautiful view of the canal from my room's balcony was breathtaking, and the comfortable bed made my stay extra cozy.

The hotel is excellently situated at the Baniyas area next to the creek, offering a 'Souk' view. The rooms are well maintained and clean with balconies overlooking the creek, however, lacking a variety of dining options. The staff is genuinely helpful and hospitable, but management may need improvement. The location is central, very close to the metro station and Abra station, making it highly convenient.

The hotel offers stunning views of the Creek from rooms with very comfortable beds. The staff was helpful in arranging transport for us on New Year's Eve, although one staff member lacked hospitality skills. The location in the Baniyas area next to the creek is ideal for exploring a more traditional side of Dubai, but it's not as close to modern attractions.
