missing shampoo poor service
The location was acceptable, giving easy access to nearby attractions.
The room wasn't properly prepared. I found no shampoo or shower gel upon arrival? It took too long for these items to be delivered. The front desk staff's customer service could have been better.

Arabian Nights Dream
luxurious entrance early check fine views
The entrance displayed Arabian inspired architecture against the iconic Burj Khalifa. The team checked us in early since we had an early flight. The hotel pool offered fine views of the Burj Khalifa. Every corner was picture perfect. This hotel is centrally located near the mall.
The room did not reflect the beauty of the lobby. The corridors had a noticeable cigarette smell. Staff did not address the issue. The staff's demeanor was inappropriate.
