I had a wonderful stay at Holiday Inn Express Safa Park. The hotel is very clean, with spacious rooms and modern amenities. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive throughout our visit. The breakfast had a good variety, but I wish there were more options available. The location is perfect for exploring Dubai, but the Wi-Fi needs to be included at no extra charge to enhance the experience.
