    Nothing as such

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at AR Holiday Home JBR 2 Hostel, and it was an exceptional experience. The hostel’s location is perfect, offering easy access to the beach and local attractions. The facilities are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, making it a cozy home away from home. A special mention goes to Armstrong , the staff, whose warm and welcoming demeanor made our stay even more enjoyable. He went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, providing excellent recommendations for local dining and activities. He was incredibly helpful and attentive, always ready to assist with a smile. Their dedication and hospitality truly made our stay memorable. I highly recommend AR Holiday Home JBR 2 Hostel for anyone looking for a fantastic stay in jbr!

    There was absolutely nothing that I didn’t like about the property.

    I liked everything about the property. The location was absolutely amazing right on the promenade, the view from the property was amazing, I even had a most incredible view directly from my bed. The stay was a great value for money with freshly cooked breakfast included in the stay. The staff were very nice and helpful and I loved chatting with them. They will even wash your clothes for you. I would be definitely returning in the future.

    I loved everything about this property, the location was absolutely amazing, it was right on the promenade. The sea view from the property was incredible, I even had beautiful sea view directly from my bed. The stay was a great value for money considering the top location and the fact that the breakfast was included in the price. The staff were so kind and helpful. You could ask them for help with anything you needed and I loved chatting with them. They will also wash your clothes for you.

    There was nothing that I didn’t really like.

    I absolutely loved the location right on the marina promenade and the sea view. As you exited the building (at level P) you had the promenade right in front of you, you just needed to walk down the staircase. There was also level access from the promenade without the need to climb stairs for those with luggage or mobility issues but you had to walk through the car park. I even had a beautiful sea view directly from my bed. Also the staff were very nice and helpful and I liked chatting with them. I also liked that the stay included breakfast.

    No cofee for breakfast

    Very good value for money, considering that the hostel is located in a luxury building and in the best area, directly on the street with all restaurants, bars and shops, just three minutes walking from the Jumerah Beach and from Dubai Marina. The hostel is new and having confortable common spaces, also offering amazing beach view. The female dormitory was spacious with lot of space to fit luggages and confortable bed. Bathrooms are big and very clean. The staff has been very helpful and friendly. Nice continental breakfast.

    Near the beach and the metro station, there are a lot of coffee shops and restaurants around the house. Staff are friendly and nice, guests are wonderful. Very good breakfast. Amazing view from the balcony.

    Tourist area so the stores are a bit more expensive. The charging outlets are right next to the bed so if you charge your phone you have to put it on the bed and you can accidentally pull it out in your sleep without noticing. A little shelf above the beds would be great where you could put your phones for the night. Everything else great 10/10 would definitely reccommend.

    Everything was great. The staff, Amanda and Armstrong (hope I wrote his name correctly 😅) were really nice and always super helpful. The beach is like a 3 minute walk away. Lot of grocery stores and restaurants nearby. You can see and rent a lot of super cars. The view from the balcony was great.
