Gevora Hotel
Good breakfast. Can get very busy. Loud with sheik Zayed road traffic noise. Some staff were unfriendly. No hair dryer, no gown, no extra towels for extra guest, no ironing and cutlery. Good thing was it had washer and dryer plus space room and lounge. Good supply of bottled water. Overall good value ...
