Very convenient and clean with friendly staff
We liked our stay and definitely would recommend others as well. The hotel is very nice and the nightly rate was very affordable. The property is in the middle of the City and one can do shopping and eat every type of dish as lots of fast food and other restaurants closeby.

We booked for family of 3 (child is 12). When we arrived we had to pay 300 extra for the child. Staff is very impolite. The parking was not available since the were renovating the hotel, which was not stated at the moment of booking. When I complained there was no empathy at all for it. never ever again

Would go back - good reception
Great hotel about a half mile from the water front. Dunkin donuts around the corner and 5 minutes walk from Starbucks and next to a small park with fountains. I was very happy.
Room a bit dated but big and spacious.

Good hotel well located
The hotel is good, the room is very nice and clean. It´s located close to Corniche Public Beach (10 Dnr taxi) or Abu Dhabi Mall (7 Dnr taxi), for example.
The bad part is amenities, as they don´t have itens like frigobar or ice/vending machine available. The breakfast (as in all hotels is too expensive 50 Dnr) then I prefer to have something out.
The reception staff are a bit slow, but nothing to complicate your stay.
