The location was perfect for me, close to Dubai Mall, although not walkable in the heat. The free bus was useful, but taxis are generally cheap and always available outside the hotel.
Communal areas clean and modern. The bathroom in the room was a little bit tired. The pool area was small but not too busy. Water was kept nice and cool.
Service was generally good, not great, just OK.
The only onsite food option was Fridays, but all food delivery apps would deliver to your room, and Dubai Mall is close by too
