On the plus side, it's a very cool location, a gorgeous clean beach, the bay is very clean, the water is clear, a lot of fish, crabs, even a turtle was seen) the food is quite varied, delicious, lots of seats, a beautiful view from the rooftop bar, just something incredible the whole of Dubai is visible, especially at night.
Relative disadvantages: when checking in, they offered to add money for the balcony (when I booked, I did not realize that we had a room without a balcony) they gave two options :1st is a full view of the sea with a balcony for 600 dirhams and a "partial" one also with a balcony for 300 dirhams, we chose the second one and did not regret it, our balcony overlooks two sides of the bay and we saw all the sights from the room, cleaning every day, but does not correspond to 5* but the hotel is quite budget so it is forgivable) there are few towels and no bathrobes, Yandex taxi from Marina 49 dirhams from Bursh Khalifa 100-130 dirhams, I think it's very budget and a plus, the first day we walked along the embankment to the monorail, it's over very far and we did not repeat this experience anymore, but we admired the beautiful hotels including Atlantics, monorail to Marina station for 40 dirhams for two in one direction, a taxi is cheaper, but just to see how it all works, you can take a ride once)
Of the cons:
This is a pool, it is very shallow and closed at 19 o'clock... then while the sun is out and you can swim in the sea, you do not need a pool, but after sunset there is absolutely nothing to do in the hotel, you also do not swim in the pool ... very strange ... in previous hotels in the emirates it was fashionable to swim until 21-22 hours ... very expensive restaurants and drinks a la carte, and the hotel staff are waiting for tips and impose paid services... in general, we are very happy with the rest and the place, but the hotel is definitely not 5ka, but a solid and excellent 4ka, we will not return to it anymore, since we were in the Emirates in better hotels, but on we will definitely return to the palm tree)
