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 hope this message finds you well. I would like to bring to your attention some concerns regarding the cleanliness of the building. Recently, I have noticed a significant presence of cockroaches and an unusual odor on several floors.
I understand managing a building can be challenging, but I believe addressing these issues promptly would greatly improve the comfort and well-being of all residents/tenants. Could you please look into this matter and consider additional cleaning or pest control measures?
Thank you for your attention and understanding. I appreciate your efforts in maintaining a safe and pleasant environment.”

“I’ve lived in this building now for almost 4 years and love living here. My 2 bedroom apartment is perfect in size and layout, the cost is decent for its location in Dubai, and I have an awesome view of the Dubai skyline. I can watch the sun rise over the creek from the guest bedroom and the sun set over the skyline from the living room and main bedroom. The team who work to keep the apartments safe, clean and maintained are amazing and so nice and helpful. If I have any issues or concerns, the building manager or the team make sure they are dealt with directly, and efficiently. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is due to the fire alarms often going off in the building because of the smoke detectors in the kitchens. Other than that it’s a really nice place to live, it’s my home, and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.”
