I was there for 5 days last week but I have been there many times. Its a great place and there is no shortage of things to do. The traffic is not so bad in Jumeriah but it is bad around Deira and the creek and up to Sharjah.

If you are just going for the weekend, stay in Jumeriah. There is plenty to do there. 

Just call me Tigasin. That's what I'm talking about
