Dhs 20 seems a little steep but sadly its the shape of things to come. That New Gold Souk monstrosity already has it and Al Ghurair City has the machines ready too.

And the queue to get a taxi from there is massive at peak times as it is - couldn't they have waited until the metro was up and running? Interchange station will be adjacent to Bur Juman.

It's called 'living in a big city'

But in Burjman's case it seems more justified as they have a problem with people parking there and going to work, or residents using it as a car park.

Fairmont will not charge you anything if you eat in one of their restaurants.

How dare the residents paying a fortune to stay in the Burjuman apartments expect to have their own car parking. Whatever next!

Apols... The Residents are a slightly odd underground band from the US, famously reclusive... and about as likely to play a gig in Bur Dubai as it is likely that MH will finally give in to the McLovin offered by Lionheart...
