I just stayed here (December 2024). The guys who run the hostel are always on hand for security and really nice, the facilities were excellent (gym, pool, fully equipped kitchen with washing machine). Waitrose, pharmacy, mini mall across the road. The location was excellent! 10-15 minute walk from where it all happens in Dubai 😊 (the great mall, Fountain, restaurants, Burj Khalifa). It was also in a really nice area and apartment block where there was additional security downstairs. Fabulous!
