I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one side, the location is fantastic, being right between the Gold and Spice Souks and very close to public transportation. The service was friendly, and it offered good value for money. However, the rooms could use better cleanliness, and I experienced some disturbances from nearby noise, so it wasn't ideal for a peaceful stay.

The hotel is conveniently located near the gold souq and metro, which was a big plus for getting around. However, the rooms were quite tight and had a lingering smell due to smoking, making it less than ideal. The service was satisfactory, but the dining options left a lot to be desired, lacking variety. Overall, while it offers good accessibility and a friendly atmosphere, the room conditions and dining experience could definitely improve.

I had an interesting stay at this hotel. The location is a real highlight, set in the heart of Old Dubai, close to the Gold Souk and Spice Souk, making it perfect for shopping. While the rooms had some cleanliness issues and annoying noise from the mosque speaker, the staff was friendly. On the downside, I found the dining options lacking, especially with no breakfast included. Overall, it’s a decent choice for those looking for a budget stay in a vibrant area, but expect some compromises.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while there were some highlights, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. The location was quite convenient, being close to public transportation and the gold market, which I appreciated. However, my room was less than ideal—dirty and poorly maintained. The service was decent, but there were some noticeable gaps. Overall, I felt that the value for money was lacking, especially considering the state of the rooms.

While the location is excellent and really convenient, especially with the proximity to the mosque and local markets, I faced some issues in my room like a bad smell and noise disturbances.

The hotel is situated right in the heart of the vibrant Gold Souk and Spice Souk, which makes it incredibly convenient for shopping and exploring.

The hotel is situated in a great location, just a 7-minute walk from the Alras metro station and close to both the Gold Souk and Souk Naif. The rooms, although clean and comfortable, are on the smaller side which might be a bit cramped for larger groups. While the overall service was decent, the dining experience did leave much to be desired. The value for money is reasonable given the location and amenities, but improvements could be made in some areas.

The rooms were in pretty good condition, but I noticed that the fridge and dustbin weren't cleaned thoroughly after the last guest. The staff was friendly, but their inexperience showed at times. Dining options were very basic, falling short for a 3-star classification. Overall, it has its pros and cons, but for the price, it wasn't too bad considering you can shop right at your doorstep.
