He didn't really exaggerate anything, as far as I can see, except for getting scared of overfriendly hotel staff.

Even the 'pros' are written with a negative spin on them.

So very closed minded.
So simoneschmittner, did you keep in mind that nowhere is perfect? That everywhere has things going on 'behind the scenes' or as you said 'the underbelly'?

Have a lot at your hometown. :)

well a city like dubai , having people from different cultures and locations from the world , would be kind of weird thats right , cuz the locals are the minorities , well i don't agree with some of the things there.

but some other things are there in any city.

and who doesn't want to come or doesn't like the country he shouldn't come at all , alot of people love the country and love to stay in it.


I LOVE DUBAI with cons or pros

living in Dubai was OK .........the time was when you could find a place with out locals, like it was in the good old days when we had bars/pubs where locals were excluded and only westerners were allowed in and locals were ejected :)
