I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located near the Emirates Palace and several attractions. The rooms were big and had a beautiful view, making it a great choice for a birthday surprise. The service was courteous, but they seemed a bit overwhelmed due to being understaffed. The dining experience was good, with a decent selection, but there was room for improvement in staff efficiency. The pool area was nice with a great atmosphere, and overall, it felt like good value for money despite a few hiccups.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The views from my room were fantastic, especially being on the 34th floor, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the Wi-Fi was quite poor, and I had a frustrating experience with the baby cot I requested weeks in advance that wasn't prepared upon my arrival. The beach was also disappointing, more like a small lagoon than a proper swimming area.
