I stayed in this apartment building for many years and got to experience a lot during my stay.

Each apartment has 4 bedrooms which means you get a mix of families and apartment sharing but largely there's a lot of sharing. Personally I've had no problem with either type of tenant.

The typical apartment has two separate bedrooms that have ensuites, and two bedrooms grouped together with their own area door and shared bathroom and cupboards.

Next are some of the not so good points. The design, given the circular shape of the building is a bit awkward compared to a conventional building. Each apartment gets a quarter wedge of the building so bedrooms and the main living area are all shaped around the curve. What's worse is the kitchen and bathrooms are located further towards the middle of the building so don't receive natural light.

There's the odd issue with water supply that may be cut off for parts of the day or overnight throughout the year and this seems more regular for the bottom third or so apartments but they do warn you in advance. There's also regular pest control in place to deal with insects that spread through the apartments. The windows can have loud creaks as the sun's heat moves throughout the day, but you generally get used to it but guests will remind you of the creaks. For me, other noise wasn't much of an issue apart from when there's renovations and even though windows are double glazed, noise from outside creeps in through the not so well insulated windows that do open and balcony doors.

On the plus side, the apartments are spacious and the living area is open and bright. There's a large lagoon pool plus a lap pool which are great by Dubai standards, and a reasonable gym that's adequate for not too intensive workouts. There's also a games room with pool table.

The location right next to a metro station is amazing, and there's a taxi rank out the front that apart from peak hour times means you'll not have to venture far to find a taxi. However, note that on busy Marsa Street, there's nowhere really for people to stop by car and no visitors parking though apartments get 2 car bays each.

It's also in a good location generally, and if you don't mind walking a little bit many things are accessible including Dubai marina mall, JLT and Dubai marina dining, the beach and plenty of supermarkets. Or course you can also drive to them, just note the evening peak traffic times of Marsa Street that slow you down a bit but it's not too bad.

There are open air balconies, which in Dubai get incredibly dusty very fast but it's still a good thing to have if you are ok with the cleaning.

The security company has changed a couple of times over my stay with the current company being one of the better ones and are quite friendly if you get to know them.

The building TV, internet and telecommunications is with du so last I checked that meant you can't use any other provider including, say, OSN directly.

Worst experience with Ajay and Jyoti who rent their apartment floored 35th on Airbnb. They told us whenever security men ask who you are, just tell them we are their guests. They have listed their apartment with a lot of misinformation also there was a water leakage in the washroom which makes floor slippery and dangerous for a senior citizen. They don't even know how to give respect to a woman who is 68 years old.
Just in case someone is planning to stay at this apartment better go with its detailed review wherever it is listed, I have already posted its review on Airbnb.

Security guard literally harass everyone, they own the building I think. Remove them and building will be great to live in. Don’t take room here, unless you are owner. Guards will harass you until you say it ain’t worth the hustle to live in this building.

As an owner in this building the security is brilliant! We don't want people entering without proper access and bending the rules! This tower is perfectly located next to the metro, Dubai Marina, Mall and great option for work or short term renting. My kids love the pools and the views are incredible!

Don’t listen to the bad reviews here… Those are mostly left by the short time visitors and the security naturally doesn’t enjoy the short time renters since some caught mistreating the building and bad reviews were left by them since they got objected and stopped of course..!

If you’re looking to rent it for your family as a yearly contract, as I have resided here for 16 years, I can assure you that you’ll enjoy a beautifully designed house with 90 degree angle of Dubai.

Every floor has 4 units only which makes each floor a very private place and every unit is around 230 square meters. Two of the units have marina views and the other 2 have sheikh zayed road views.

The 03 series has the best and the most sea view, the next best is 04 series with slightly less sea view, then comes the 01 series and the last is the 02 series.

Some of the units are used as airbnb or holiday homes and some few units are used as shared short time rentals. As I mentioned it earlier short time visitors expect they’ll have access to all facilities since they paid for 1 month however this may not be officially included in their 1 month contract.

Only building photo access card holders can access the facilities which include 3 swimming pools, 2 gyms and 1 game room. Also entering the building from every door requires this card.

Unfortunately some short time renters caught trying sneaking in when they did not have a card or forcing the magnetic doors to open in parking floors when no one was around..!

These kind of behaviors alerted the security so they got objected and have stopped therefore this didn’t entertain these people in fault.

Finally as the last word, if you’ll be renting or buying anywhere as a general rule, make sure to check the unit and the contract carefully. Take your time to visit the facilities to make sure that it is what you’re looking for ????
