What one reviewer said

“I stayed here for a year.. the location and view are great, and with only 13 floors, it’s much quieter and less crowded than nearby buildings like Gate 1 or Skycourts. The building is new and offers good amenities, but the main drawback is the constant outside noise that the windows and walls don’t block.”

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.

“The dirtiest building! Cocoroaches are everywhere, coming from the neighbors and big concentrations in the trash chutes. The A/C barely works in the apartments and are inexistant in the corridors and the elevators. The walls are cracking. The quality of the air coming from the A/C will make you sick. There is no pressure in the showers. above floor 20 (not sure below this floor). No parkings available around the building and no parking for visitors. Worst management and building. The door of the balcony is not sealed, so the heat, dust and sands comes in. They came 4 times and said it's fixed, it's not.”

“The building has become extremely dirty, a lot of insects and cokoroach. Always food smell in corridors as the people cook and leave their doors open. No action from management. The building is disgusting”

“Building is well and good with neatly maintained corridors. Rooms are spacious and of good quality. Still I gave only one star because of the fire alarms going on day and night making life miserable. No one, even security is not taking any necessary steps to warn the irresponsible people behind it to prevent such nuisance”

“One of the worst residential buildings I have lived in in Dubai. The management focuses mainly on keeping the entrance clean and nicely scented, which creates a very misleading impression. Beyond that, the building suffers from poor cleanliness and lack of proper maintenance. Due to neglect of common areas—especially corridors and garbage rooms, which are a serious health hazard—my apartment recently became infested with insects and cockroaches. Despite multiple complaints, no effective action was taken. I am counting the days until I can move out. For these reasons, I would not recommend this building to others.”

“The security guard (on duty 17th of December 2025 from 6:45 am - 5:30 pm) doesn’t seem to help. My parcel was wrongly delivered in this building, and the tenant of the unit where it was wrongly delivered seemed to have taken my parcel and refused to give it back. It also happened to me last year but the box was already opened when it was given back to me. He did not even offer to show me the cctv footage. This is stealing in broad daylight. Where is my rights here too as a tenant of the sister building? This is so frustrating and disappointing.”

“There is not enough parking inside or outside the building. Maintenance is very poor. The walls are weak and you can hear your neighbors. The security guards' treatment is very poor, especially the night shift.”
