Dubai data sim and/or USB dongle

Hi,

Family hol to Dubai at the end of the week. Staying in the hilton jumeirah residences, and internet looks to be 100AED per day. We're there for 10 nights, so it's prohibitably expensive.

Thinking it may be cheaper to get a UAE data SIM for my ZTE dongle (currently UK '3' network.)

Does anyone have any opinions on which network to go on? I'd like a fixed cost for say 5GB of data, on a prepaid basis, so that i CANNOT exceed what i've budgeted.

Also does anyone know if any UAE sims will work in my ZTE usb dongle, or should I just buy a dongle from one of the UAE suppliers?

Thanks.
