The hotel is very old and urgently needs renovation. The evening before my check-out, water was leaking heavily from the ceiling at the entrance. Shockingly, the next morning, the issue remained unresolved. Buckets and towels were placed around the entrance to contain the water, with no proper safety measures apart from a "Wet Floor" sign.There was a strong, unpleasant smell throughout the hotel and in my room. Despite several requests, my visibly stained pillowcases were never changed. The bathroom was poorly cleaned, with dust around the sink and cabinets. The sofas had obvious stains, one window had a large crack, and the security lock on my room door was detached.Despite these serious hygiene, maintenance, and safety issues, the hotel demanded a 500 AED security deposit at check-in. This is particularly concerning, as guests could potentially be charged for pre-existing damage or problems the hotel has neglected to fix.Due to these unacceptable conditions, I checked out one day early. Extremely disappointing experience. I absolutely do not recommend this hotel.
