Hotel was okay and apartment very spacious and convenient, however in a non-smoking area the bad smoking small was presence almost all time and got worse during night which I was hard for the kids.
Other than that staff was helpful, and room well prepared for a long stay
Area has also many options and it is fully walkable.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed at in the UAE!

What an horrible place to stay! The check-in took no less than 45min because they were not able to find a room with a window that closes (the property is really old and seemed to have been poorly maintained). The room was noisy with AC noise all night/day long. The staff was not really able to help much about the issues and they would not even answer the phone when calling from the room. You have to pay an extra to park your car and wait for a while in the morning to pick it up. That was a real disaster for me to stay at this hotel and I would recommend travelers to choose other options within the same price range / area.

An OK stay

The hotel location was good as it was walking distance to the Abu Dhabi Mall. The deluxe suite had a kitchenette which was convenient. The room size was comfortable accommodating an extra single bed for our daughter. The bathroom was really small. The bathroom door would hit the knee of the person using the toilet. The shower area was small too. The hotel provided a big bottle of water everyday and ice was provided when needed. The front desk personnel were helpful. Overall stay was OK..

Excellent option for families

I was looking for a hotel that could fit our family of 4 in one room. This hotel was perfect. There was a bedroom plus a twin bed in the living room, plus they brought in another twin bed for us. We cooked breakfast everyday in the kitchen. There are several supermarkets and a pharmacy within steps of the hotel. The internet was good. They had limited parking so we had to valet everyday but it worked out fine. We were very satisfied.

We added the buffet breakfast to our reservation and loved the convenience, the large variety of foods offered, and the excellent wait staff. Our rooms were spacious, well appointed, and taken care of daily. Reception staff were always ready to help with advice or needed information. Truly an excellent experience!

This hotel is a nice place to stay. Spacious and clean rooms, nice little Gym, rooftop pool is lovely if abit small (8 or more people would be a crowd). Wi-Fi connection was fine but did slow down after 10pm, streaming sport on the ipad would become distorted for spells. Good location bang in the middle of town and just a 15 minute stroll to the sea front. The Abu Dhabi mall is just 2 blocks away. I would recommend this hotel as a decent place to stay for your vacation or business trip.

A very good apartment hotel in a good location

We arrived very late but had advised the hotel about our flight time so were welcomed warmly by the staff, and we're delighted to be upgraded to a one bedroom apartment as no studios were available. Our room was spacious with comfortable sofas and a well equipped kitchen, a large and comfortable bed in the bedroom and a good ensuite bathroom. There is a rooftop pool which was lovely to cool down in as it was very hot during our visit and there's also a gym there too. We did not use the restaurant so I can't comment on that. The staff were always very friendly and helpful. We thought the hotel was excellent value for money. The hotel was in a good location near shopping malls and near the beach promenade. The city centre air terminal was also nearby and before our departure we checked in and left our luggage there so did not have to transport it ourselves to the airport. We also used the airport bus which cost about £1 each way. The city is huge and we only saw a small part of it as we only had a couple of days.

Great Hotel for a Great Price

I initially booked this hotel expecting to move to a different place after I got a feel for Abu Dhabi. I'm on assignment here for a few months and wanted to feel out the area before making any long-term commitments. I must say I was pleased with everything about this hotel. The hotel is close to several malls, namely Al-Wahda and Abu Dubai mall, and walking distance to the Corniche. The neighborhood is lively all day and most of the night but the hotel is very quiet. The gym is average size for a hotel and has all the equipment you need. It has never been crowded when I want to workout which is nice. The food at the restaurant is amazing! Hands-down the best food I've had in Abu Dhabi and pretty affordable when you factor in convenience. I suggested this hotel to a few of my co-workers and they've moved from more well-known established to this hotel. This hotel is great for the traveler who's looking to get more bang for their buck.

This was amazing

We were there for one night only (sad, would have loved to stay longer in this hotel). We got an upgrade, and the reservations also very easily changed a non-refundable reservation from one day to another, when our plans had changed. The room I had was nothing short of an excellent suite, living room, kitchen, bathroom, additional toilette, great seating, and additional table in the living room. All clean, all facilities you would expect, plenty of plugs to charge your equipment, with universal plugs (no adapters needed). The staff were helpful. It was a perfect experience from beginning to end, and really the size and comfort of the room was well beyond what I had expected, particularly considering the very reasonable price. I will go there again, no question.
