Holiday Inn Express Safa Park Dubai

Usual Holiday Inn setup: comfortable clean rooms, with individual temperature control in the rooms, friendly staff. The hotel has a bar, which is a plus in these regions, where you can get international alcohol. Selection is slim but varied.

It's really hard to comment on location, you have to take the taxi everywhere as with anything in Dubai. The difference is, some hotel has restaurants within walking distance. The restaurant staff is friendly but the menu is slim. The buffet is worthwhile for 55.00AED. Small selection but you can feast and stuff yourself. The front staff is friendly but not very knowlegeable about anything around Dubai. I'll give it a few more months since the hotel is fairly new.

Overall, a good affordable hotel in Dubai. It is central to everything meaning everything is within a taxi reach for about 20-30 AED including to the airport (depending on traffic) which is not bad.
