“Never again !!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2010

We stayed here for 2 nights during our extended stay in Dubai. From staying in Xclusive apartments which was Modern and Clean this was the totally the OPPOSITE!!!!!

Our one bedroom apartment was really disappointing and absolutely disgusting. There were footprints all over the white bedsheets. When i rang reception they sent a staff to change sheets. However cleaner was ill-mannered as he didnt greet or say anything when opened door, whilst changing sheets he was on his mobile having a chat for 10 mins then he said he would come back in 2 mins waited for 15mins still no return which resulted me in to call reception again. Later realised Bathroom had mudstains on the walls and all the floor tiles in the apartment was dirty made my feet black. We had a standing shower which was so small when you twisted and turned you would touch the horrible shower curtain. Our room was promptly changed the next morning as i booked in for a king bed not twin beds and complained about hygiene. 2nd room was better however bathroom tiles still had stains on them which i just could not be bothered in reporting as it was my final night. I dont expect 5* quality in a 3* apartment with the price i paid however i do strongly believe at the VERY LEAST IT NEEDS TO BE CLEAN. I do think there needs to be investment for this place as the furniture is very old and bathrooms need to improved.

Good things about this apartment is it spacious but no point if its dirty and it provides free high speed internet which is rare in Dubai and if you want to be few mins walk from the creek then this meets your requirements. Also, the staff on the reception were nice.However i would not stay here again and would not recommend it at all.

“there is better accommodation available.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2010

We have just returned from a 2 week stay at the waterfront apartments. I have to say I was very dissapointed. In no way is this a 4 star hotel, more like 2 star. We arrived and the check in is simple, i was surprised that there was noone to take us to our room and had to struggle alone. First impression of the studio was that is wasnt very clean, and on closer inspection the kitchen and utensils were certainly grubby to say the least. The living area was very very basic and the quilts under the cover was again very grubby. The TV didnt work the shower had a hole in it, and the toilet seat was broken. There wasnt even a rug on the floor. In the morning we asked to be moved. Which we did but the other room was just the same.

I wouldnt stay here again, there are certainly better places in Dubai at a similar price.

“It is an OK place if you are on a budget”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2010

We have stayed at this apartment hotel for a few weeks holiday in August. Overall it was fine. The name for this Hotel is somewhat misleading because even though the building is not too far from the Dubai Creek most rooms have no view of the water. We had an empty land in front of us which was used by some construction vehicles for short periods during night time. It was the least welcoming view I have seen for a long time. The building is staffed 24 hours and they were polite and professional. Overall it was fine however I have to remind you that you should not expect a five star hotel feel.
Our room had a bathroom, guest WC, separate kitchen with all working appliances including a brand new washing machine/dryer. A TV, Hi-fi, dvd player, ac were all functioning fine. The housekeeping guys were knocking our door everyday for cleaning and towel,bed sheet change. They also washed the dishes if there were any.
One thing we found useful is to keep the guest wc ventilation on time to time because of some strong onion smell coming from downstairs.
The hotel is near Burjuman Shopping Mall and I do strongly recommend a car hire which then becomes very easy to go anywhere in Dubai as the building is just off the two main roads which you will be driving everyday.
Would I stay here again?
To save some money, and spend it on other things, while having a comfortable and clean apartment? YES.
To enjoy few days of luxury and elegant comfort? NO.
