This Marriott is close enough to some key sites in Dubai. However, it has the busiest and most chaotic lobby and driveway at all times of day. There are plenty of staff on hand to manage as best as they can, but it felt overwhelming. The hotel room was dated and not at the level of cleanliness I’d expect for a Marriott property. An easy update would be to put in different bedside tables and to update the lighting control. Additionally, at one point the hot water did not work in our room and the hairdryer inconsistently worked. Staff at the pool and French bakery were friendly, but got confused easily and moved slowly.
