The property needs to be updated but it gave a rustic vibe. The host was very nice and always helped. she provided good taxi service companies and map app that helps you get around. Everything touristy is 10-15 min walk away from the property.

The aparthotel is in a rough shape, it needs some remodeling. There is no parking area so be mindful of that when booking. The pool was old but nice and clean. The staff was very friendly and for that reason I gave it a 3 star, for the staff, if not I would have given a 2 star.

This is a hidden gem, IF you’re a frequent international traveler and prefer to stay in an airb&b style place and not the Hilton. My room (Room 1) was beautiful and exactly like the photos. Very clean, great bed and shower, beautifully decorated. The property is NOT a resort in the classic sense. Some of the photos are from a previous hotel of the same name in a different location. There isn’t a restaurant or lobby or bar, there is a clean and lovely pool but it’s not the one in the photos. But if you’re a city person and there to go on excursions and check out the beaches and still have a wonderful suite to go back to, this place is ideal. Price is unbelievable for the space. It’s only a 10 min walk to downtown where you can grab a cab to the beaches, or go to restaurants and shopping. I would absolutely stay again

It was clean. But nothing like the internet pictures. It’s more of a motel in a not so good location. It is gated but the communication is awful, no room service or food, pool only looks good at night. Only plus was that it’s a 10 minute walk from the action and the airport and you could step out and hail a taxi.

I like the place a little bit because is a silent place. The Lady was very good with us. I don’t like that in Expedia they have picture of a place that have breakfast, Bar and other stuff, but when you get there you feel that they still your money. And also they have to take 100 Dollars that I don’t know why, if we paying for something that we don’t expect. I went there with an amount of money that I am going to spend and I finished with nothing on my package. Because I went there knowing that I have breakfast that the only thing that I have to buy is lunch, but nothing was like I was expecting.

Our recent stay in this place left me, my wife, and another couple very disappointed. The hotel was nothing like the photos, the rooms were outdated, poor cleanliness, a total misrepresentation of the hotel and with significantly lower quality and missing amenities. When we arrived to the property address, we were met by the manager. Upon arrival, she issued us our keys and right away changed my room because someone else was there and wouldn’t leave for an additional 2 days. Her excuse was that their a/c had stopped working and she moved them to my assigned room which upstairs was a total disaster. There was no hot water, the shower leaked into the bedroom, the room was very dark with several lightbulbs blown. The room had a fowl odor, the towels were so worn that they had holes in them, and there was no remote to the TV. Moved to our “deluxe” suite, that we had paid for initially. Upon moving to the room which was downstairs, we noticed that the couch had several stains, and was broken. The staff was using a pillow to cover the void on the couch. It was so disgusting that we asked for a sheet to put over it so we could sit on it. The structure can easily be described as inhabitable, condemned, and most important abandoned. There are major cracks on the structure, specifically on the load bearing columns and walls. All we can say is stay away from this place, it is horrible and dangerous.

This hotel was not the same as the pictures online when I arrived it was different no where near the pictures which was what I was expecting to see, I booked a room for june 12 to june 16 2024. I left the hotel june 14 because the electricity went out in the whole building causing there to be no air conditioning and no one was inside working (no recepción) I want a refund for the last two nights in which I didn't stay.

The place is nice and clean. Our room was on the second floor was very aesthetically pleasing. Lots of power outlets in the room, which is great. The housekeeping lady is wonderful at maintaining the property. We got fresh towels everyday. The water pressure in the shower is great, and the pool on the property was nice and clean as well, which we appreciate. The area could’ve been a little quieter, the internet at the hotel itself was really spotty and weak, and the place was listed as “breakfast available” with a fee, but that wasn’t the case when we arrived. The listing on Expedia even had photos of breakfast. But overall it was a great experience, place in a very convenient location close to city, restaurants and beaches

It was an easy walk to the main part of town. Room was spacious and looks like the picture. Pool was fantastic. Restaurant on property was excellent. No reception so it was difficult to ask a quick question. Staff who came every other day were great and helped with anything we needed. Sofa in room was tired. Bed was good. They didn't turn the hot water on when we arrived so no hot water for a day, but not bad. Fairly quiet. Slept well

The host lady was amazing. Super friendly and easy going. Her hospitality was very warm and made us feel welcomed. She’s the start of the hotel as she does everything by herself. Property has no parking. She kindly offered us to park in front of the property which has one of those u shape driveway. She says no one has car so we can park there. But then during the weekend 4 more car parked in front and behind us and we were looking for the owners to get out. Same problem when we came back to the hotel. The location is very convenient and it’s very easy to get around. Close the restaurants, downtown shopping area and easy access 10 min drive away from the famous hotels district where all the night life and nice restaurants are. If you are planning to rent a car and you’re in a budget, I would definitely recommend this hotel as we enjoyed our stay. If not planning to rent a car, I do not recommend it as it’s hard to get around the island although, they have an impressive transit system. Way better than any bus I’ve seen in Canada and US. If you want local food experience go to Don Jacinto and Peanuts restaurant. Very close to hotel. You got to try this Dutch coffee brand called Smit&Dorlas which is the best coffee I’ve ever tasted. I’m bringing 6 bags home lol.

I contacted the property for check-in instructions and received an automated reply. Arrived at the property and there was a phone number written on a piece of paper taped to the wall. Called and had to stand in the sun waiting for someone to arrive. The person who came did not speak English. She called her daughter to translate and her daughter was also not able to translate. When they opened the gate for us to enter, the property looked abandoned. No other guests visible. The restaurant was visibly unclean, even had wood lice running along the walls. The overall experience turned me off and I decided not to stay. Ending up booking another hotel on the spot. Do NOT recommend! And they won’t offer any refund. Unbelievable.

The photographs on the site are not only misleading they are fake. The furniture and fixtures shown do not exist. Something went terribly wrong with this property and it should not be promoted on sites like Expedia without someone verifying the accuracy of the information. During our 10 day stay (we tried to relocate but couldn’t due to Carnival season) some people left after one night or refused to stay, there were sex workers operating out of room 4. No restaurant or any food service at all , no bar, infrequent room services due to only one employee on the property. The roof of the gazebo by the pool was collapsing. The interiors of the rooms were bare concrete floors and walls and dilapidated furniture. There was hot water only in the shower, the kitchenette and bathroom sinks had only cold water. This degree of deception should be criminal and I write this not only as a review but a condemnation of an industry that would expose unwary customers to an unacceptable experience.
