Missing alot off daily basics
Pool area
Missing basic necessities for daily routine
There are no groceries or pharmacies. There is no place where the taxi can drop you off, as cars are parked outside the building on pavement. Kitchen is very small with little room for storing things. Wardrobe is very small even for me living on own. If you want to more… go to Garhoud side you need to drive all the way to the bottom of the street do a u-turn and come back to the building on the other side of the road.
Only nice thing is the pool area and gym.

1 bedroom in RBC Tower
Lake view
No parks and green areas
I like the location of RBC, as it is close to everything but not in the middle of everything. They opened new roads in the last year so it is easier to reach the tower from any direction. The area is still a bit deserty without any parks or other more… walking possibilities. My apartment is on the lake side of the building which is much quieter than the other facing Al Khail road. I like to layout but the finishing and the fittings could be much better. The highlight for me is the balcony with Burj Khalifa view and the huge outdoor swimming pool.

Beautiful view and good location if you have a car
The layout of the apartment (and open kitchen!) pool and gym!
The fact that there is no laundry room and the guest parking is outside.
I just recently moved into this building, it has great amenities and is close to everything (you can walk, about 10 minutes to get to Dubai Mall, but the sidewalks are not finished yet so its all sand and when the wind picks up.. you get the idea).
The building is more… beautiful and the apartment itself is great but there are definitely some design/function flaws that I found right away. Its a new building so you would expect it would have available spaces for things like a dishwasher and some sort of laundry area.. well it doesn't. They put the area for the laundry under the sink in the kitchen, we ended up putting the dishwasher there anyways and squeezing the washing machine into one of the bathrooms behind the door.. very inconvenient, but still works. The finishings are kinda sloppy, the bathrooms especially I notice it. Seems just thrown together too fast although if you don't pay attention to the little details like I do (my father does construction and I think thats why I notice these, maybe not everyone would) then its ok. Other then that the only other problem is the electrical sockets.. there are so very few! Trying to vacuum the hallway is quite difficult because our cord doesn't reach. Obviously with any place there are going to be some issues but these are pretty minor things.
I love the building, the area, and the people that live and work here. Everyone has been very helpful and courteous. So all in all I would recommend it to anyone.

RBC Tower
The pool
Transport
There is no supermarket/pharmacy near the building. You have to walk about fifteen minutes. No metro. Taxis still get confused were the building is and take over fifteen minutes to come. The location is very very very bad. Apartment immensely small. One bedroom is not good for a couple.

Good value for money
The view, finishing details of the apartment
There is not enough parking place for guests or for taxis to wait
New building with great connectivity to Downtown Dubai. Nice view of the lake and the Burj Khalifa. 10 minutes walking distance from Dubai Mall. Easy access everywhere through Al Khail - no traffic jams.

One of the best places to live close to Downtown/City center
Location, Facilities by DAMAC
Difficult to find public transportation from 3 PM to 5 PM like a taxi.
I lived in Marina and Barsha but found Business Bay to be much more convenient. While it is a relatively new area, the facilities here are remarkable. I find it very easy to go anywhere. Metro is still not so close to RBC but those with cars wouldn't face any more… issues. So far, the stay here has been one of the best.
