this is my first time staying at a hostel, and the all-girls place that the landlady Lisa provided was 1- super clean, comfortable and despite that it was not her job to do so, she provided towels and toiletry. 2- safe 3- and very central at close proximity to Dubai media city and all attractions in Marina 4- you just cross the street and can enter the hotels with their beach facilities (some pose a fee), and the nearest free beach either at JBR or al Sufouh is less than 7 min away by taxi. 5- the views overlooking the emirates golf course were breathtaking. 6- I extended my stay for a few more days and Lisa was super helpful in providing accommodation at another place she runs across the street it was also super clean, safe with breathtaking views overlooking Dubai Palm island

    Nice quiet rooms with good facilities- tea, coffee, cooler ( a fridge would have been nice), plenty of hot water, towels and robe with slippers. Breakfast good variety nice egg station. Additional variety of fresh fruit rather than just melon. Pool area was lovely with towels and plenty of seating. Shuttle to kite beach (30mins away) was good. Really cheap and tasty cafe at the bus station - lovely lemon chicken and fruit shakes.

    I travel for business, my trips are short but intense, hence always looking for relaxing atmosphere and quiet, yet convenient as location place to stay. All staff members were very polite. Rooms / apartments - were nice, clean and tidy. Great location, hotel is situated to a near by metro station (walking distance 3-4 min) as well as shopping centre (City Centre Deira).

    Great location, at the foot of the bridge to the beach. Comfortable place with everything you need. Supermarket across the street (with VERY cheap prices for Dubai). Host Sherif was very nice and allowed a slightly late check out, which came in very handy.
