I arranged an airport pick-up with the hotel and nobody came to pick me up. I ended up taking the airport taxi. I pointed it out to the receptionist during check-in and the person did not seem to care. No apology. That was a really bad first impression. The room was average and definitely not a 5 star hotel. There were three elevators but it took forever to get on one, either they were just really slow or had electrical and mechanical problems.

If I had to describe the Emara, I would say it is security wrapped in comfort. They are very accomodating to my desire to check in early and staying past my check out time because of my international flights. I would recommend speaking directly with the staff and not relying on the information from the TV. They have more information about the services of the hotel. They were also able to get me a doctor when I got sick. He came to my room. When things didnt go as I expected, they focused on resolving things quickly and immediatelly. I will definitely stay there again.
