    Palm Jumeirah Island has become an attraction of Dubai. An artificial island which was build similar to palm trees and consisted of many residents and of course hotels. I stayed in one of the hotel there, named Jumeirah Zabeel Saray.
    One word: amazing. Great hotel. Really, I would love to stay there. It has wi-fi connection which I needed the most, nice comfortable bathroom, pleasant room service. And I had a strange but fascinating experience there.
    My friends and I were walking in the hotel that time and we had an idea to visit some floors of the hotels. So we entered the elevator and looked at the buttons there. We pushed the uppermost floor of the hotel. We walked out of it and only two rooms. We wondered why there are only two hotel rooms.
    We saw a housekeeping and asked her, she said there are the king's room when they come to this hotel. Oh my god, it must be exclusive. Then she asked, would you like to see it? Absolutely!
    We entered one of the rooms and wow, yes it was so exclusive! We took some photos, thanked her, and left soon! Such an experience ;)
    Gonna tell you more about other places I visited! Keep reading!
