What one reviewer said

“The building is okay overall, and staff like Manish, are extremely helpful. I’ve lived here for 3 years, and unfortunately, it’s gone downhill. We’ve had full elevator outages and weeks with only half working for many many months , Parking repairs and painting took ages with no clear results , Some automatic parking doors have been stuck open for a long time and in summer the hallways are unbearably hot—No AC would work These are some issues we were facing and there are many more including GYM, Swimming pool, Hallways.....etc By Dubai standards, it’s definitely not high or even good anymore despite me liking my flat.”

From Google Reviewers

Each card is a real, public Google review of this residence, sorted into our ten questions – answered only where the reviewer said something, and marked “Not answered” where they didn’t. Reviews written in other languages are shown in English and labelled. These come from Google, not from verified residents, so they count for only a small part of the HT Score, never as much as a real resident review.

“Excellent service from start to finish. The maintenance team was highly professional, punctual, respectful, and extremely well organized throughout the entire process. The quality of the work exceeded expectations, and they ensured everything was completed to a very high standard while keeping the property clean and tidy at all times. It was a pleasure dealing with such a dedicated and efficient team. Highly recommended.”

“The building is good overall. Compared to before, the current management has improved a lot. The gym and swimming pool are well maintained, and all the facilities are satisfactory. Overall, everything is good, and I really like the location of this building in JVC. It’s a convenient and pleasant place to live.”
