The hotel is in a prime location just in front of the airport, making it super convenient for stopovers. The rooms are spacious and come with a sofa and a big king-size bed, which was a great comfort. The service was top-notch, especially from Benzen who cleaned my room meticulously. However, some staff lacked basic manners in greeting guests. The dining experience was good with local dishes but not included in the rate, which was a slight downside. The facilities were excellent, offering everything one might need during their stay.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms provided a great view of the Airport and were equipped with air conditioning and soundproofed windows, ensuring a comfortable stay. However, the lack of proper greetings from some staff members and a disconnect with Emirati hospitality were noticeable drawbacks. Benzen stood out for his exceptional service in maintaining the room cleanliness. The location was convenient for travelers catching a flight, although there were some concerns about potential delays in reaching the airport. The dining experience, which included a variety of classic Italian dishes, was delightful. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money with included amenities and services like roomkeeping and shuttle options.

The hotel is very close to the airport making it convenient for stopovers with rail access nearby. The rooms are clean and come with a double bed, but some lack a view. Service was up and down; Benzen stood out for his friendly and neat room service, but other staff lacked hospitality. The dining experience offered fixed-price options with a great variety. The location is excellent for airport access; however, private taxis are required, and it's not directly on airport grounds.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and had air con, but the small shower cubicle was a bit cramped. I appreciated the daily supply of 2 bottles of water, especially when staying on the higher floors. However, the lack of a proper greeting and responsiveness from the staff was disappointing, although Benzen stood out for his neat room cleaning. The location, while very close to the airport, lacked access to public transport. The dining experience was satisfactory with a good variety of options.
