Interesting, after recently reaching out to you re/ you latest TR I need to comment again

I agree, had a stay at the RC in AUH this year and it was, to be friendly, very mediocre. Apart from the lobby I always felt lonely in this large hotel. I believe they thought they do me a favour by upgrading to the Venetian Village but it was deserted every evening. The spa was best thing there, in the end (and I had a super cheap corporate rate).

The pool bar was also ok, at least the happy hour and the barkeepers. The breakfast - awful in this dark hall...

And generally, the service levels were super poor (30min wait to check in at 0045 in the morning, bad cleaning etc etc.)

Not again.

Best, Daniel
