보고 그랜드 호텔

I stayed at this hotel for a day while preparing for my exam and it was a good choice. If you’re a student with your university or college in Academic City in dubai, this hotel is ideal due to its close proximity to the higher education institutions located there. The Filipina receptionist was incredibly kind and welcoming, greeting me with a warm smile and tone, which made me feel more at ease since this was my first ever solo trip to Dubai as a student. Dubai can feel quite hectic, especially if you don’t have a driver’s license, so I really appreciated the quick and smooth check-in process, nothing worse than long check-ins after a long tiring day or trip! The room itself was comfortable. The AC was already on, all the necessities were provided and the water was just the right temperature for a relaxing shower. However, one area for improvement would be the cleanliness of the bathroom. Although it looked visibly clean, there was an unpleasant smell coming from the toilet bowl when I walked in. Fortunately, once I closed the door, the smell disappeared but I do recommend the cleaning staff to pay more attention to the bathroom cleaning. I suggest that the management add those small scented balls that hang inside the toilet bowl so that every time you flush, the toilet smells fresh. Overall, it was still a good stay for the day and I would recommend it for any student or tourist needing a convenient place to rest near Academic City.
