Parkside Hotel Apartment

The place is near all regions

I spent there 6 nights. I got a very spacious 2-bed apartment which was cleaned every day. The building is about 10-max.15min. walk from the metro station: The Gardens. There are many shops around the building plus tons of takeaways with delicious Indian food. I need to say to the staff is top class. They are very helpful and friendly. To go to the hotel, I took an Uber from Dubai International Airport which cost me approx. 180 AED. On my way back I walked to the metro station and took a metro which cost me 7.5 AED. From the Gardens metro station to Terminal 3, it takes 1 hour by metro. It is a place where there are not many Europeans but it is safe and do not be scared. They offer great value for money.

stayed with family on monthly basis. The hospitality and the services were amazing. The location of the hotel was home to many Indian Restaurants and Super markets. The best thing about the staff was the way they treated us (Guests). The response from them was very prompt in attending to any sort of maintenance works. Had to appreciate( Mr Hasitha) for his generosity and hospitality towards the guests.

As other reviews state, THIS HOTEL IS A SCAM. Firstly, they tried to charge me 200 AED for non existent stains on curtain and bed. They couldn’t provide any proof and when somebody came to the room they changed the story multiple times and added a stained sofa too despite me showing time stamped photos. When questioned if this costs 200AED to wash a bed sheet that was being accused, his reply was “yes” Luckily they do not have access to my card to charge this anyway so can’t charge me. On check out, (we checked out a day early) somebody had to “check” our room to see if it was okay.. 5 mins after we had apparently left green / yellow stains on the towels. ANOTHER LIE. We know this because we knew we were checking out early so had everything clean and changed ready to leave, so there were actually no dirty towels left in the apartment as they were all fresh. I believe they were going to try and charge us until they realised they couldn’t. I can only believe this was now an act of racism towards us. Despite the cheekiness of the staff trying to falsely charge us. Here’s everything that’s wrong with the hotel: Not as described as on listing: - Therefore I am Entitled to claim section 75 of credit card and receive a full refund. 1. Swimming pool - doesn’t say it’s a 10 min walk and didn’t answer emails when I asked twice on email before arrival where I had free cancellation, It says on the listing is has direct access 2. No balcony as shown on the photos 3. No fire extinguisher in room as advertised 4. It says there is separate seating area and a separate dining area. There isn’t. There is 2 dirty chairs around a small circle table next to the bed. 5. Advertised free WiFi but can only have on 4 devices 6. Advertises free private parking but doesn’t say that it’s public parking and hard to get a space at night time. Sometimes even having to park far away from hotel with 2 small children is really not ideal. 7. No ironing facilities or iron as advertised 8. No video games as advertised 9. Room that was pictured on listing we booked is not the same room we are in. 10. No city view as stated from my room. 11. No coffee machine as stated in “all rooms” on *********** 12. No dryer as stated in “all rooms” on *********** Broken stuff : 1. Cooker doesn’t cook properly - told staff about this they brushed it off. 2. Telephone 3. Clothes airer half broken and rusty really had 4. Nail hanging out of floor in bathroom 5. Plates are chipped 6. Broken wardrobe 7. Hot water only gets lukewarm and not hot 8. Tap does not work and if using the “warm” water it isn’t strong pressure it’s very weak Other issues: 1. Had to chase 3 times (twice in person, then over email) for the microwave, toaster and bath plug that was supposed to be here 3 days prior, they then called the doorbell after I had to email at 8:30am and woke up my children. 2. 2 coat hangers available for a family of 4. 3. Had to chase for plates, cups, bowls, cutlery, everything that should be in th

Writing the review on the 2nd day of my stay - room 409. May have to stay until I find something better. I will list down different aspect and my experience: 1. Airport pick up (6/10): Airport pick up was arranged for me for 250 AED - an old Merc with a friendly driver. Was ok - except that his driving skills could be better. 2. Check-in (8/10): They were ready with docs and room number. I came in quite early around 0900 hrs but since it was reserved from last night, I asked for breakfast. They were taken aback. After a bit, I received 2 set dosas with chutney n sambhar - in plastic containers. A mere indication of what was to come. 3. Location (9/10): This is in Discovery Gardens and in close proximity to metro/tram stations and very near Marina and Ibn Batuta mall. Locality feels very Indian with Tamil influence (from the shops). There are several cheap restaurants nearby and quite a few pure veg ones as well - mostly Indian but Pakistani, Lebanese, Chinese etc. as well. One will find two supermarkets, two Indian supermarkets (one Tamil), few pharmacies etc. Overall, a very nice locality and if you are an Indian or vegetarian, this place is very good. 4. Room (8/10): Surprisingly the floor plan and the rooms are incredibly neat. Quite spacious for a studio apartment and has a balcony, a large fridge, microwave, induction oven, washing machine etc. My room has one queen bed and one single bed - mattresses are comfortable. Fridge, microwave and Air Conditioner work well. Room also has plenty of cupboards to store all your stuff, one work table, one small table for eating, two chairs, one sofa, one luggage bench etc. and furniture is made out of good quality wood. 5. Room Amenities (3/10): Room is dimly lit, I suppose to save electricity. Almost nothing excepting two glasses and one plate (and couple of spoons and forks) were provided. I asked for plates, bowls, cups, electric kettle etc. They all came, along with some tea/coffee sachets. But everything happens slowly. Television is out and wont start. Few toiletries are provided but I normally dont touch those. Only two large towels - nothing for hand or footmat. No hangers provided. 6. WiFi (1/10): They ask you to login using some code - connection keeps dropping and managed a best speed of 4 mbps. If you have any plans of working from the facility, please do not choose this place. 7. Breakfast (0/10): I heard them ring the bell at 0730 in the morning. Some random guy handed me a packet of poha and a packet of fruits and then poured some tea into a paper cup and handed over to me - that was breakfast !!! First the food service resembled prison food distribution as we have seen in movies. Second, quantity of Poha will leave a rabbit asking for more. I didnt exactly visualized this when my office voucher said breakfast included !!! Lucky for me lot of Tamil places around that open at 6 - I ate at one today and will eat at the other one tomorrow. Tomorrow I plan to gracefully refuse the brea

Very unprofessional staff .. especially the reservation team.. I was told AED xxx amount as annual rent and just a week before my moving in, the reservation personnel stopped answering calls... I had already vacated my current accommodation and was stuck up .. Worst hotel ever..
