Deira City Centre Metro Station is beside the hotel, making airport trips and getting around Dubai straightforward.
Suites are notably roomy; one Royal Suite had two rooms with a king bed and two single beds.
The in-room kitchen setup is useful for longer stays, and one layover guest described having a full kitchen.
Deira City Centre mall is across the street, with restaurants, supermarkets and everyday shopping close by.
An on-site convenience store stays open 24 hours for basic daily items.
The breakfast buffet receives specific praise, including from a vegetarian guest who enjoyed the adjacent restaurant’s breakfast.
Guests mention a decent pool with an attached hot tub, alongside the hotel’s other leisure facilities.
Request amenities. Ask at check-in for bathrobes, slippers and toiletries; one review says these may need to be requested and can take 15–20 minutes.
Confirm smoking. Confirm a non-smoking room before arrival, since one guest received a smoking room and could not open the window.
Allow time. If early arrival matters, reconfirm it and keep a backup plan: one guest said the room was not ready until 3 PM.
Check essentials. Inspect air conditioning, bathroom fittings and hot water soon after arrival so reported maintenance issues can be raised promptly.
Expect noise. Rooms may pick up street or neighbouring-room noise; evening metro traffic was also flagged by a guest.

The Bottom Line
Somewhere Apartment Hotel is a practical suite stay in Port Saeed, particularly handy for travellers who want space, a kitchenette and quick access to Dubai’s transport network. Deira City Centre Metro Station is next door or a one-minute walk away, and the mall is across the street. One review described the hotel as only two metro stops from the airport, which makes it useful for short layovers as well as longer stays.
The accommodation ranges from studios to larger apartments. A Royal Suite was described as having two rooms with a king bed and two single beds, while another guest appreciated a full kitchen. Breakfast is served at the adjacent restaurant, where a vegetarian reviewer was especially pleased; room service is also mentioned.
A 24-hour convenience store inside the hotel is handy for basic supplies, and reviews mention a pool with an attached hot tub. The main caution is inconsistency. Some guests found their rooms clean, spacious and good value, but others reported old furniture, stains, insects, mould, odours, weak air conditioning and broken bathroom fittings.
Front-desk experiences also vary sharply, from quick and helpful to rude or very slow. Confirm your room type and smoking status, request missing amenities early, and check essential equipment on arrival.
