What Residents say about Al Bateen

Al Marasy

2.0
Z
Zalina

We stayed 2 years in building 2 Marasy and all 2 years were fighting because of the noise. First year it was noise from the AC exhaust which maintenance team were struggling to fix for more than 6 months. And all two years we were fighting with jetskies noise. It is extremely loud and no matter how many times you call and complain to Coast Guard, no action has been taken to stop it. The noise level is so high that gives you impression that you live on the high way. We loved the apartment but life quality there is not good due to noise and parking issues.
