Confirm views. Ask the hotel to confirm your exact view before paying extra; one guest faced a roof despite booking a Marina view.
Pack earplugs. Rooms near the busy road can be noisy, so bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper.
Check hot water. Test the shower soon after arrival and report any hot-water problem immediately.
Check essentials. Confirm towels, tissues, drinking water and glasses are in the room before settling in.
Allow time. Leave extra time for check-in, as one review describes a wait of nearly an hour.
Plan the visit
One guest found the room-service food better than the breakfast and other hotel facilities.
The breakfast buffet is available, though reviews differ sharply on its temperature, quality and value.
Some apartment rooms include a washer/dryer, useful for longer stays.
Apartment rooms can include a kitchen area with basic cooking and refrigeration equipment.
Some guests found insects, leftover food, stains, dust or mould, despite other reviews praising clean rooms.
Multiple reviews report no hot water in the shower, making basic bathing uncomfortable.
Furniture, bathrooms, lighting and other fixtures are repeatedly described as old or overdue for renovation.
Check-in and requests can take a long time; one group waited nearly an hour to check in.
One guest reported being injured by protruding rusty nails in the sauna and said compensation remained unpaid.

The Bottom Line
Sunday Marina View Hotel Apartments is mainly a location-and-space play in Dubai Marina. You can stay in an apartment-style room with a kitchenette, microwave, fridge and, in some units, a washing machine; the pool is another useful facility. The Marina, beach, restaurants and metro are all within practical walking distance, and parking is mentioned as available.
The rooms can work well for families or longer stays when they are clean and properly maintained. Positive reviews describe spacious studios, comfortable beds, helpful housekeeping and attractive Marina views. Some guests also liked the room-service food, while breakfast received mixed feedback: a few found it reasonable or delicious, but others reported cold food, limited choice and poor quality.
The main caution is inconsistency. Recent reviews report insects, leftover food, missing towels and tissues, cracked or leaking bathrooms, unreliable key cards and repeated hot-water problems. The property is also widely described as dated, with old furniture and facilities needing refurbishment.
Service can be equally uneven, from warm and efficient reception help to unanswered calls, slow requests and lengthy check-in. Confirm the room view and basic supplies in advance, test hot water on arrival, and consider earplugs because road traffic can be audible.
