Buses are nice but when I had to do the transfer back in 2015 I remember there being a long line and having about an hour's wait. I liked Abu Dhabi better than Dubai for hotel quality and bang-for-buck, though there wasn't a subway and you had to take taxis more often. Also rented a car one day and drove to al-Ain and then out the middle of the country to Fujiarah province and the coast there.
