Hotel photos - beware of what you see!

Just a recommendation that you should always check a number of photos of a hotel, as the ones they have on their site can be deceptive! This is a photo of a popular Dubai beach hotel, which many of you have stayed at, and featuring in many tour operators brochures:
However, since this hotel was built, there has been much building work, but still this photo from 10+ years ago is used all over the place.
This is a photo of Jumeirah beach today. Spot the same hotel (courtesy Trip Advisor Candid Photos!)

Good tip - but I don't think it matters much where Dubai is concerned; it's hardly picturesque anyway!
