Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but unfortunately, the view was restricted to the dumpster and the back end of the hotel, which was not the most pleasant sight. I did appreciate the friendly and helpful service, though, especially during the busy lunchtime. The location, while offering access to all areas of the island and beautiful views, felt a bit crowded and overpriced. Dining was good overall, with a decent menu selection, even though some dishes seemed precooked. Facilities were adequate, but I did notice some areas for improvement.
The hotel was overall a lovely stay, with spacious rooms and a nice bathroom. The backside location had no particular view but didn't affect our experience. The summer heat was a bit noticeable, but not a major issue.

The hotel has modern and clean rooms, but they are not so spacious and had some maintenance issues like a broken toilet seat and lamp. The overall look was cold and bland.
