I had a fantastic stay at Mama Shelter Dubai with its cool, unique vibe and very nice staff. The location is great, with many conveniences close by, though the room was smaller than expected. I also found the loud music throughout the hotel a bit overwhelming for working or relaxing.

My room was the Medium Mama Double, and while it was quite small, it had everything I needed. However, I struggled with the design of the shower, which got the bathroom wet every time I used it.

The service was truly really good! Every staff member I encountered was attentive and friendly, making my stay so much better.
Location

The hotel's location is fantastic, with a supermarket and gas station nearby. But it could use better signage as the entrance is a bit tricky to find.

Breakfast was excellent, and I highly recommend the French restaurant, Parmentier, on the 4th floor for its delicious food.

The gym is small, but I managed to get a good workout in. Plus, the pool was pleasantly warm during my stay, though sunbathing might be tricky due to the sun disappearing behind the building around noon.

My stay at Mama Shelter Dubai was a unique experience with its abstract and funky interior (definitely one of a kind!). However, the staff's need for better training and some design flaws in the room left me a bit underwhelmed. The location was excellent, providing easy access to necessities. Overall, it was a mixed bag with some highlights and a few issues.

I stayed in a Medium Mama Double room, and honestly, it was the smallest I've seen in Dubai (definitely cramped!). The shower design was also tricky, as turning it on meant getting wet immediately. Nevertheless, the interior was visually appealing.
Service

While the staff were truly really good (one of the highlights of my stay), they struggled with basic requests and had to send a technician to address the issue with the AC in my room. They clearly need more training to enhance the guest experience.

The food at Mama Shelter was decent, but I found it below average considering the price (not quite up to snuff for my taste). However, breakfast was quite good, with a variety that I appreciated.

The hotel offers a range of facilities like room service and shuttle services to popular destinations, which were very helpful during my stay. However, the overall vibe was quite loud, making it hard to find a quiet space.

My stay at Mama Shelter Dubai was a mix of fantastic experiences and minor hiccups. The unique interior and attentive staff stood out, but I did have some issues with room size and food quality. Overall, it was a nice visit, though there's room for improvement.

I stayed in the Medium Mama Double Burj Khalifa View, and while it was spacious and well-equipped with a mini-bar and toiletries, the size felt smaller compared to other hotels in Dubai.

The staff were attentive, and I appreciated the early check-in at 8:30 AM. However, I think they need more training, particularly with technical requests like the AC issue I faced.

I had breakfast at the hotel, and it was excellent! The French restaurant, Parmentier, on the fourth floor was a good experience and highly recommended (the Hungarian beef stew was a favorite!).

The gym was small but offered a good workout space, and I enjoyed the warmth of the main pool during my visit. The outdoor movie screenings were a fun touch as well.

The interior design is vibrant and unique, creating a lively atmosphere, but I found the room quite small and the food quality didn't meet my expectations.
