“Such a nice place that is very soon going to feel abandoned, I guess. We’ve been living here for more than a year now, and compared to a year ago, the summary is the following: - They stopped keeping the backyard clean: all surfaces are dirty (couches, tables), cigarette butts are everywhere, and when you ask them to clean it, they pretend they do but actually don’t. Whether in person or by email, it’s just “okay ma’am, okay ma’am” and nothing happens. - Last month, 2 out of 4 elevators didn’t work at all, and the remaining two are extremely slow, so you can easily wait around 10 minutes for your floor. - We pay around 500 AED for housing services for a 2BR, but it seems they found more inte…”

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.

“I have been living in this building for the past three years. Initially, the experience was excellent. However, over time, a significant number of families have moved in, resulting in constant noise in common areas, including children playing and screaming in the lobby and shared spaces. Unfortunately, security is unable to effectively manage the situation, and the overall living environment has deteriorated significantly. This is particularly surprising given Emaar’s usual standards and the fact that the apartment sizes in this building are clearly more suitable for singles or couples rather than families of four or five. As a result, the quality of living for many residents has been negatively impacted, and the experience that originally attracted us to this building has been compromised. Emaar’s quality and standards are getting worse by the day.”

Overall, the impression is that they “sold” this nice investment idea to people who bought apartments here and just don’t give a toss about the future of this “project.”
