My stay at Ritz Carlton Residences Difc was a mix of highs and lows. The location was fantastic, being so close to the Dubai Mall, and I appreciated the cleanliness of the apartment. However, I waited nearly four hours for my room to be ready, which was frustrating, and I encountered some issues with the apartment layout, particularly the lack of a door on one bathroom, and the noise from a nearby restaurant during the night.

I enjoyed the cleanliness and location of the Ritz Carlton Residences DIFC in Downtown Dubai, which made it convenient for exploring the area. However, my check-in experience was frustrating as I had to wait nearly two hours past the official 3:00 PM check-in time, and one of the bathrooms in my two-bedroom apartment lacked a door, which was inconvenient. I also found the noise from the nearby restaurant's music to be disruptive during my stay.

I recently stayed for three nights at the Ritz Carlton Residences in DIFC, and while I loved the location and cleanliness, there were a few downsides. I had to wait almost four hours for my room to be ready, which was quite frustrating. Additionally, one of the bathrooms in my two-bedroom apartment lacked a door, and the noise from a nearby restaurant made it difficult to relax at night. Overall, a nice stay, but with some room for improvement. 😊
