Spacious two bedrooms, two bath rooms, with a third separate guest toilet, big kitchen, living room and dining area, two balcony’s to catch the rays. However, bedroom carpet, furniture (generally) and kitchen units have the “used”, and lived-in look.

Large king-size bed in master bedroom with two single beds in the other bedroom. The internet was fast, however not password protected, so be careful with your online security.  Good facilities, like a roof top pool, gym, steam and sauna room. Central location in Tecom district, close to Dubai Internet City Metro Station with a Carrefour supermarket open 24hrs within 5 mins walk and a nice Mosque around the corner. Marina and JBR beach is approximately 10 mins drive.

Kitchen appliances included, kettle, toaster, washing machine, micro-wave, dishwasher and fridge-freezer – all worked fine, except that it took a long time for the electric cooker to heat up. The Satellite TV was a challenge to tune up as each time we switched off, we had to manually reset, loads of free channels, but nothing worth watching – not a problem for us as we were out most of the time.

If you are not too fussy, and want a central base in Dubai to explore and discover from then this is a good choice and wont break the budget. In summary, Home To Home apartments could best be described as good value for money, comfortable and cosy.
