United States of AmericaThe personal was very friendly, the room with an amazing view on Burj Khalifa and so was the pool.
SwitzerlandEverything was awesome, the staff were friendly at checkin and checkout which were both quite fast. The restaurant on third floor was the bomb.

MalaysiaLocation was very good, 10 minutes walking to Dubai Mall, there is also a scooter rental just next to the hotel which is fun to use will take 5 minutes to reach Dubai Mall. Room was spacious and bathroom was almost same size as the room that has tub with a view. I would like also to mention that Front Desk Manager E is so helpful and made my stay perfect.
