It’s a little dusty and AC is not so cold, there’s some reason not ok specially this summer in Dubai.

We were simply given a standard room without any explanation or apology, which is fine but she handed us the keys in a bad way , and also The A/C wasn’t working in the room and when the maintenance came he was so aggressive.

They charge per head for the use of plates and cutlery, and for ice in the room which I found odd.
