The safe inside the room after I kept my valuables got locked and I couldn’t open it. It took 4-5 hours for the technician to break open the panel. My travel documents were in there. This could have damaged my travel plans. Very stressful stay.

Needed something convenient for an early flight after staying with a friend in the centre. It’s v close. Staff were helpful on check in with advice on check in about which shuttle to take ( ie 0430/0500) - great to have that regular shuttle which took 5 mins. I was through to duty free after self service bag drop in 40 mins from leaving the hotel. The shuttle had a towed part for luggage. On others’ recommendations, I reserved a breakfast box as was up too early for brekky. Great all round. Air con effective given it had been mid 40s in the day. Pleased I stayed and would do so again if in Dubai for a lay over or early departure. Helpful staff.
