Sun & Sky Al Rigga Hotel, Dubai

They were about charge 6 star price for a 2.5 star hotel

The hotel is located in a very good neighbourhood and close to Union metro station (~5 min walk). We could smell cigarette odour as soon as we entered the room. Room was very cramped and seems like the carpet was not vacuumed properly. In room safety deposit locker did not work. Shower fittings were broken. Though we were on 6th floor, we could still hear loud music from the night club located in the lower floors well past 2 am midnight. Hotel staff were very good and professional. The room price was outrageously expensive for the type of room we got. We you check-in reception will take your passport to make photo copy and will tell you that it will be returned to you later. Make sure you wait in the lobby and take your passport back (usually takes ~15 mins). Good things are decent internet speeds, good neighbourhood and close to metro station.

Room was very spacious, although bathroom was cramped. Wifi was fast, but had trouble connecting on the 2nd day of my stay. Decent location not far from train stops. Service was friendly. However, checkout was very slow as they called up to check the minibar, even though they had my credit card # and thus could've just billed me. Thus, there was no reason for this delay, and this is the first time I've ever encountered that. Also, there weren't enough elevators, and they were slow. Overall, though, I'd recommend this hotel. Good value for the money.

It was great hotel. Also price was reasonable

The hotel is well located near the metro station and a shopping mall. While small, the room was well decorated and everything was in working order. The only real issue with the room itself was the swinging shower door. Since there was no way to keep the door in one place, the only way to prevent water from going into the rest of the bathroom was to hold the door while showering, which was cumbersome. The free shuttle to the airport was definitely appreciated, but insofar as catching the shuttle from the airport to the hotel, it is not marked in any way so there would be no way to know it was available unless perhaps a pre-arrangement was made with the hotel. Finally, please note that you definitely have to be a sound sleeper or make sure to request a room on a higher floor to get away from the noise from the disco. If that isn't an issue for you, this is a great place to stay.
