I liked the experience very much and am a repeat customer. Centro Yas Island is close to transport and shopping. It is also very quiet which I prefer. The gym and pool are excellent amenities and I made full use of them. Staff were professional yet friendly and readily answered any questions I asked. My stay was a very good experience.

Very basic. Bathroom dirty. Comfortable bed

Check in was very slow - 20mins for a prepaid, pre-booked, simple room, no special requirements. Hotel close to airport ~40AED taxi ride. Room was adequate but room keycards were routinely unreliable and need re-programming several times. The bed was comfortable and clean but sadly the bathroom had dirty fingerprints over the doors, swirl marks on the mirrors and glass surfaces and mould on the shower walls and in the grout. Breakfast was adequate and was being made good use of by a variety of gentlemen, who were carefully making large quantities' of sandwiches and smuggling them out in table napkins!! When we called down for a taxi, I had to call twice before speaking to a human. She kept me on hold for about 5 minutes before informing me that everyone was very busy and i would need to come down and hail a taxi myself!! Ok for a cheapish stop over for a shower and a sleep. Wouldn't recommend for a holiday experience...

Pros: Was nice to be able to get a smoking room! Staff were helpful too.
Cons: Could not control aircon - no instructions and not intuitive at all, so it was either the pre-set temp (too cold) or we had to switch it off
Location: in circle of good hotels
Facilities: Nice ; Value: Affordable; Service: Sufficient, Helpful, Polite; Cleanliness: Immaculate; Centro is in a circle of hotels standing away from town on Yas Island. No shops, houses, nearby, so felt very safe. Free shuttle to town and round Yas
