I travel frequently and have stayed in many hotels over the years, but I have never experienced anything as bad as this. The hotel has nightclubs inside the building and is filled with loud young partygoers, The noise was unbearable and the windows were paper-thin, making it completely impossible to sleep. We got not sleep at all during our stay.

In addition, the room was dirty and despite repeatedly requesting a room far away from smoking areas, there was a strong smell of smoke throughout the room.
The staff was extremely unhelpful and communication was poor to nonexistent. To make matters worse, even through we arrived at 1:00 PM, our room was not ready until 11:00 PM, which made it completely unacceptable.

Overall, this was deeply disappointing experience, and I would strongly advise others to avoid this hotel.

The location is good, everything else is awfully. The room smells like a sex and cigarette. The bathroom was dirty and smells like loop. You can see molds on the walls and floor. The bathroom sink needed proper cleaning, you can see hair and toothpaste residue. The furnitures are old and out dated.

I couldn't sleep due to the loud noise coming from the rooftop club (I was on the second floor). The club ended at 4 am.

One of the worst hotels that I have stayed in ever. The room was not cleaned properly with food (french fries etc) lying on the carpet. The toilert roll holder in the bathroom was broken, no mat for the bathroom floor, a work desk without any chair, the bathroom door wouldn't close properly unless you pull it really hard from outside. I showed all of this to one of the hotel guys just before checking out. I also gave the feedback to the reception at checkout and the guy there said to report it all online - he was completely indifferent and unapologetic about the state of the rooms.

The executive room was massive, 2 rooms , 2 toilets, but the rooms are now a little dated. I had to complain about the internal phone not working, missing towels and missing tea cups. Rachelle at reception sorted them out very promptly. She was a pleasure to deal with , even extended my check out by a little, even though I didn't end up using that extension.

Twice they changed my suite due to air condition not functioning. Bathrooms leaking from ceiling in the first room I was checked in and room was hot with no air condition. Maintenance, called and still could not fix. They never changed my room for two nights. I had to sleep waking up sweating in the middle of night. They switched me third night to a known broken room with no air condition again and bathroom leaking. Almost broke my neck after taking a shower because floor was full of water. Staff at reception were rude and never gave me anything for complimentary or refund after second night. They kept saying hotel is full avoiding to change me to a better room. If you are on vacation it’s the worst place to stay. Hotel is old. I don’t see anything I could compliment on. Restuarant basically has nothing good about it visually or the food. I would never stay this hotel again. Be warned, don’t ruin your holiday and be attracted by the low price only to experience loud noise from the hindi club and Philippine club in the lobby and old, broken HVAC, broken bathrooms that are flooded after bath or showers. They are rated as four star, they must have bribed to get that many stars. I wouldn’t even give them any star.

The only good thing about this hotel is the location and easy access to the metro. But other then that hotel service was not so great. We had to change rooms on the second day because our room keys were not working and there were cockroaches in rooms. Unfortunately there were cockroaches in the second room as well, and there was water leakage in the bathroom. Just overall a bad experience at the hotel. The breakfast buffet was good though.

Well recommended.

Good stuff: 4 minute walk to metro, 1 minute walk to convenience store, 6 minute walk to mall. Unheated pool (in January), comfortable large room with mini fridge. Maintenance responded quickly to broken water heater switch.
Bad stuff: dull thumping noise from night club and noise in the street most of the night. Granted, it's a big city and a densely populated area.
Impossible to take a shower without the floor getting wet but easily remedied with the bath mat.

There were many issues and the biggest of all was life threatening.

1. I came to hotel at night and requested for early checkin and they said you can come around 9 or 10 for early checkin and if there is room available surely they will but around 12 for sure they will offer room however they gave the room late.

2. On first day i slept and woke up late in evening and left the hotel however when i came late i saw few cockroaches which i killed and slept however other day for almost 24 hours i was killing cockroaches and hotel did not take any action.

There was a time when there were tiny cockroaches were next to my bed and then i couldnt sleep and went to reception with my luggage late in night and stayed in lobby for 6 hours.

I wanted to report the matter but the hotel was not responding through room phone so i had to use hotel lobby phone to reach reception.

The hotel sent spray but there were one too many. They keep coming and too tiny that i couldnt sleep

3. I also caught cockroaches in hotel main lobby.

4. I reported the matter to staff and they told me its common. The Hotel Management think themselves above law. They also told me that whenever inspection team comes hotel says they are full and they dont have room so the inspection team never see the issues.

5. The staff also told many other customers reported same issues many times but no support.

6. They offered me refund for my stay and they didnt give later.

Next day room was not cleaned I told the front desk no one cleaned the room I had left the hotel for 4 hours I came back and the room still wasn’t clean went back to the front desk again and then they finally called housekeeping to clean the room.

The Worst Hotel I've ever experienced

The worst hotel I've ever experienced since we've entered 21st Century!

1. They checked me in to a room that was already occupied by someone else and unnecessary misunderstanding could have been aroused if that someone happened to be in the room, but fortunately, that someone wasn't in the room, but I could see all of his/her belongings in the room

2. Under the current CoViD19 situation ongoing, they are definitely not cleaning the rooms properly. Why? Please refer to the photo attached. This hotel should be hit with a severe penalty by the UAE Gov. as it is not following the strict regulations the Gov. is trying to apply to make UAE safer from CoViD19
Frankly speaking, I don't think they are even cleaning the room properly when the guests ask them to make up the room

3. Aside from the above, they even forgot to place any towels & waters when I get back to the room one day. And it took them 40 mins to get back to me.

The staff are just lack of manners & service mind as none of them has ever used the word \"sorry\" after all of the above during my stay in the hotel for 3 nights.

This is my first time writing a review on Hotels.com and I had to do this as my stay at this hotel was just a total shock and full of displeasure, hoping others that are planning to stay in this hotel reconsider their decision and not ruin their mood on biz trip/vacation to Dubai.

Hotel name changed

We initially booked this hotel not realizing that the name of the same hotel had been changed. This hotel was originally called the lotus and it was horrible the last time we stayed here. If we would have known before hand, we never would have stayed here again. However, this time it was a lot better. The staff was friendlier and the customer service we received was better than the last time as well.
