Arabian Courtyard Hotel & Spa Hotel - Page 1

This hotel on al-Fahidi Street in Bur Dubai not far from the textile souq area and across from the Dubai Museum should be avoided at all costs. The basic facilities were not up to health code standards during my entire stay. Also, for those unlucky enought to be assigned rooms on the second floor there is a disco nightly until 03.00a.m. that will keep one wide awake if you are expecting desert quite and serentity. Also, I requested a non-smoking room and despite having two non-smoking floors listed in on the elevator panel, I was placed in a musty smoked room with drapes, carpet and walls reeking. My request to be transfer to a better situation went unacknowledged and the establishment attempted to have cleaning staff de-smoke the room by repeated chemical treatments to no avail. For those of migraine sufferers who are scents attack prone this was like a double whammy.
