Center of Abu Dhabi. Perfect for single travelers. Few nights, one week or even more. Very cozy room. Excellent welcoming. All very tidy and clean. The room was perfect and the wash room too. The cleanliness was impeccable. I spent only one night there, and the day after I was thinking to book again for an entire month. During the night the place was very quiet and calm. I slept very well. Wifi excellent. Great Stuff.

    The building inside is so beautiful and owner is extremely nice and helpful (he has two beautiful dogs and cats). The building is located 10 minutes by taxi from airport, is very clean inside and has everything you need. Remember this is not hotel but private home where you feel like welcome guest and still have your privacy. I highly recommend.
