Good time of day. Four of us had a rest 2 adults and 2 children (3.5 and 8 years old) from 28.09 to 5.10. We took a room without a sea view (to be honest, it's beautiful of course when the sea is visible, but I'll tell you that we didn't sit in the room and I'll tell you why). In general, we arrived early, the flight was from Mineralnye Vody. We were at the hotel at 7.30 am. They didn't give us a room, like there's no one available. But! For $ 700 for the entire stay, we could be provided with a room with a sea view right now. We disagreed because of the price. I was ready for a maximum of $ 250-300, but not for $700, honestly. Hotel for a week
We got 180,000rubles for everything incl (they were booked back in March), and therefore 70,000rubles from above is unreasonable, since with a reservation you could buy for 210,000 rubles immediately with a sea view. Okay. We were told to wait until 12- well, OK. They took our luggage, and immediately, thank God, they gave us bracelets ,
And they sent us to this room where you can sleep and wait for your room or check out of the hotel. In general, it's a good idea, but! There are people going back and forth all the time. There's a toilet and a shower. And these people are coming in droves - screaming children, screaming their mothers, in addition, music is playing and not quietly, in short, yes, a good idea, but the performance is so-so. Because you can't actually sleep right after a night flight because of the noise. But I think if you expect a flight, it's good. Next, they gave us a room, thank God, at 11.00. 379 room. The room with a view of the construction site is of course trash, but most of all I "liked" the super slippery tiles throughout the room. The hotel is creepy, it's like a kid's hotel. My three-year-old child did not fall so badly after a shower on this tile, it is slippery, incredibly. The problem was solved by immediately putting on rubber slippers after a shower. Room cleaning will do. Not a fountain , but it will do. If you don't press the cleaning button, they will come at 4 o'clock to clean up. If you click, then in the morning. Towels were changed at every cleaning. Toothbrushes are not given immediately, you need to call to order the right amount. We took our own. Hygiene products include cotton swabs/ cotton pads/ nail file, shower caps, bags for feminine hygiene products, body cream, shower gel and shampoo. So-so in quality. Especially shampoo. If you have hair or skin
Capricious heads - take yours, I advise you. The bed linen is really full of holes. Yellow sheets in places.
On nutrition- did we eat or on the 8th floor
Or on the street in Sands. Everything is very tasty. I liked the food very much. I brought three extra kg from vacation (alas). But that's because it's delicious 😂
On the ground floor, the cafe did not like the eternal queues, but it was also delicious there, the first day they ate there.
Elevators - yeah, there's no question about that. You can really wait for him for 5 minutes, this is not a joke. One minute he's full , the next he's not coming to your floor at all. There are very few elevators for such a large hotel. Why they did this is not clear, but this is a minus. The ladder is only a fire escape.
The staff is polite! That's right, that's right. They're all just sweethearts. There was a man there, unfortunately I don't remember the name, speaks Russian, very pleasant and polite. The girl alone was also at the reception, she spoke Russian. And the restaurant on the 8th floor, one girl spoke Russian.
The contingent consists of a few Europeans, the British, Kazakhstanis, and Russia. There are quite a few Russians. At the bar at 22.30 only Russians 😂 alcohol is good. Imported. They don't pour God knows what. But keep in mind at 22.59 - they won't even give you beer anymore)) only if you ask sooo much and immediately leave 😂
The beach ... well, the beach is certainly not like in Sharjah or Ajman. It looks like sand like on a palm jumeirah. I cut my foot a couple of times. Not much , but unpleasant. Sea stars, crabs, small fish swim crayons near the shore. There are deeper fish and more)) It makes sense to take a face mask or goggles for swimming. To dive. Not Egypt, of course, or the Maldives, but fish and crabs run along the bottom) the beach closes with sunset. at the beginning of October, at 18.00, it was already about closed. You can leave without leaving, but at 19.00 they will already persistently walk around and clean up the sunbeds near you. Towels are given at the entrance to the beach.
The pools are good. For different ages of children. There are even three slides. Well, that's cool. Except that in a lazy river, the coating is not very pleasant at the bottom of the river itself - I wiped my thumbs on it, because you push off with your socks if you need to push someone forward in a circle, like your child or yourself in a circle. Well, you get it, it's rough in short.
There is a Russian-speaking woman working in the shop at the hotel, a rather unpleasant person, but to the hotel
She has nothing to do with it, if you don't need to buy anything urgently for small things, you won't run into her 😀
There is NOTHING to do outside the hotel. We took a taxi to the Dubai Mall, gave 85 dirhams one way and 80 in the opposite direction. It was possible to get to the Deira City Mall, for 60 dirhams. We used our Yandex!) but unfortunately, the payment by card did not go through. She gave me the cash. There is a transfer from the hotel to Dubac Mall - 25 dirhams per seat. It turned out to be a little cheaper for us by taxi. By the way, prices in the Dubai Mall have increased relative to December of that year 😂 well, they have increased everywhere and for everything, but still, keep in mind))
In general, if we sum up, everything is fine, we were not in the room except at night, and at night
You can't see the sea, so if someone plans to hang out in the room with their children, and not get high by the pool or in the sea, then it's worth overpaying, and if not, then God be with her with this construction site. This is the only hotel in my life when I put on a swimsuit at 10 a.m. and took it off at 7 p.m. Because we didn't even go to the room. Whole
We spent the whole road on the territory, ate, swam)) One moment - take everything on. do not take full board or God forbid breakfast or breakfast dinner. You can go broke there. Only one piece of ice cream, which is given for free and as much as you want, will cost 25 dirhams)) it is better to overpay with our wooden ones right away than to spend there. By the way, at the hotel reception you can change bucks for dirhams. We changed a little at the airport (horse course), the rest was changed at the Dubai Mall.
Another of the cons ... the hotel lets locals and semi-locals just "hang out", you will recognize them by their absence
The bracelet. I do not know why, but their children are wildly arrogant, starting from the cradle . Probably such a mentality. Or maybe I was so lucky to notice it. But in general, there are a lot of them there, they occupy a crowd of sunbeds wherever possible. By the way!!! THE SUN BEDS ARE OCCUPIED FROM 8 AM!!! That's why! Pan or gone. If you don't borrow it right away, you may not find it in the morning. Of course, everything would be fine if no one did that, but locals and semi-locals are just the first to run to take sun beds, arrive at 7.50, buy an entrance ticket and rush to take a seat)
And here's another thing, there is a hookah on the 8th floor
And the bar, which is closer to the beach, costs from 110 dirhams.
In general, I advise you with children! Children up to 10-12 years old will have fun there. There is an evening animation for children in the lobby. However, we have never visited 😀 there is a room with Sony Playstation, we saw it, but we did not play, our children do not like this.
I advise only with children! There will be NOTHING for two vzrs to do there. the constant screams of children will be annoying.
P.S - the planes did not interfere. If you don't have any mental problems, they won't interfere, honestly) I 'm so for them
I was worried , in the end it was even fun to watch. And the noise didn't bother AT ALL.

Excellent Italian cuisine restaurant. Expensive but pleasant, at least the food has a taste, since most dishes in Dubai are plastic, tasteless, like chewing paper.

A great place for a family holiday with children! We liked it. There is a Russian-speaking staff.
