Dunes Hotel Apartment Oud Metha

The water is quite dirty and the environment is not very good. Maybe it's cheap, so many people still stay here.

I stayed for 8 nights in this hotel in Dubai, during a trip to the United Arab Emirates with my wife. The hotel is located in a very quiet area, in the Bur Dubai district, near the Oud Metha metro stations (approximately 800 meters from the hotel) and Dubai Healthcare city (approximately 600 meters). Don't be fooled by the distance from the metro (not too far anyway), also because the metro is not as widespread as in European and American cities, so having a station close to the hotel is really essential (very often in Dubai the metro station can even be several km away). The hotel is truly exceptional! We were assigned a double room which to define as such is an understatement, it was a real suite of around 70 m2 in which there was a mega kitchen-living room with a sofa, two armchairs and a table, TV with home theater system and telephone. The part used as a kitchen was not lacking in anything, there was in fact: fridge with freezer, washing machine, hob, microwave oven, kettle, toaster, crockery and pots, hood and huge table with 4 chairs. But that is not all! In the bedroom (also huge) we had a very comfortable double bed, another TV, a huge built-in wardrobe, a dresser with mirror and lamp and even a touch button with which to signal to the outside the desire not to be disturbed or to request the daily room cleaning. The bathroom was no exception, there was even a bidet (you read that right), as well as a sink, toilet and bathtub with shower. Finally, there was also a hairdryer, while in the bedroom there was also a safe, an iron and an ironing board in a special compartment of the wardrobe. Another happy note is the price, for 8 nights in a double room we paid the equivalent of approximately 520 euros (2027 AED). If you think that's all, you're wrong! Every day you will be provided with a free do-it-yourself breakfast set (instant coffee and herbal teas), two bottles of water and all the bathroom products (soaps, body cream, towels). The icing on the final cake is represented by the swimming pool with hydromassage jets on the first floor of the hotel. The water was very warm and being little frequented by hotel guests it was truly the ideal place to relax. Here too, towels are provided for the deckchairs and there is always a lifeguard present despite the maximum depth being less than 2 metres, while in the small pool (my favourite) the depth was one metre, so it felt like being in a swimming pool a spa rather than a swimming pool. The hotel also offers a paid breakfast service and nearby there is a "Grandiose" supermarket where you can buy everything at low prices, even hot dishes prepared every day in the food area (which we purchased and heated in the microwave in the room). Daily cleaning at a convenient time (12:00), other

Apartment hotel quite well located between two metro stations if you choose to travel this way. Spacious room, kitchen quite good but with very few dishes or pots and pans. Very cordial and friendly welcome. The swimming pool is very rarely in the sun. The gym (decisive element of the reservation because we are a sports couple) was under construction and this work had not been announced on the site, nor even on site during checking: rather disappointing... it was necessary do sports elsewhere!
