Starting a Dubai experience

Enjoyable hotel in the business Bay Area. Great for business and good hotel if you need a great room that you will be out and about in Dubai.
Tad, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

1. Very SLOW check in (I told receptionist I had 15 hours flight), 2. even with 2 concierges you can’t get any help, they only talk … useless. 3. I was late for a booked Tour and therefore lost money only because the beach shuttle did not arrive on schedule (2:10 pm) but was 25 minutes late.
