We will depend mainly on the train/metro to get around as I am in a wheelchair. I see the LMs by the airport do not participate with SPG benefits, why? Choices seem to be pay a reasonable rate at one the Four Points (they each have the pool/pool bar closed until 3/31) or stay on points at the Sheraton Dubai Mall, or compromise and try the Hilton Dubai Creek. We don't need a "Wow" factor in the hotel, just a nice place with access to transportation. Thanks for any other suggestions or comments?
The Sheraton is in the Mall of the Emirates I believe - this is probably the best in terms of location and close to transport (train). Keep in mind that taxis in Dubai are cheap and plentiful.
