Landmark? Skidmark, perhaps. Not in a great part of town, to be honest, and made a lot worse by the current metro construction work outside the front door. Lobby area had an unpleasant odour upon entry. The staff are polite and helpful, but the general standard of presentation is poor (i.e. unused matresses left in corridors, cracked sinks, dated decor...). Roof-top pool is shabby and needs a re-vamp. I would really only advise those on a strict travel budget to consider this hotel.

This hotel is full of Indian and Russian tourists. The rooms are big except for the small and badly designed bathrooms. Air conditioner worked well. But no view could be seen from the hotel room. The restaurant was of bland and expensive type, but there were not many other alternatives. The location is in the hardware store district, although walking distance to Deira markets. Lots of construction work in front of the hotel made it a bit of a shambles to get in and out. All but impossible to hail a cab in front of the hotel, way too chaotic.

This hotel is located in Baniyas square in Deira and l booked it for the location. Outside the hotel there are plenty of shops and places to eat. It is not the most upmarket location but its hectic and thats what i liked about it, you can walk to the Gold market. The rooms are clean and of medium size the breakfast is average and expected for a 3 star hotel. This hotel is popular with the Russian community and the only thing i did not like was the stench of cheap cigarettes lingering in the rooms and corridors. I would stay again for the location and the value for money.

i thought this place was well priced and in a great location. close to gold souk and the free cruise that is given with the big bus tours. i had no problem walking around by myself around this area - and i am a scaredy-cat. the rooms smelt of stale cigarette and the bathrooms, although clean/sanitized had grotty groutings, it was perfect for what i needed. it was cold while i was there so i didn't need the pool. the tour help desk was utterly useless with new information, but if you know exactly what tour you want to do, it is convenient to book things. cheap supermarket accross the road for necessities and a few fast food (not chain, but yummy off-the-street food) places around. perfect for stop-over if not planning to stay in the room the whole time.
