Hello from Dubai :-)

The Highland Hotel is one of Dubai's best-known unofficial "brothels", so unless you're looking for cheap & illegal female company I'd definitely avoid the Highland Hotel.

The Pearl Resident is good value for money, and is located very centrally. It's close to the Bur Juman Shopping Mall, and the historic area down by Dubai Creek. it's also only a short drive away from the Dubai World Trade Centre and the business district.

The Lotus is located on the other side of the creek, in an area called "Deira". This area is close to Dubai airport,but can become very conjested with traffic, especially in the evenings.



Hope this helps,
Jess ('c',)
