The roof garden was the best part of the hotel. I would stray there again for the enjoyment of the roof terrace. The staff were very nice and accommodating. Some features of the room and kitchen were worn down. The bathroom was clean and functional.

Cons: room is very outdated and dark, closet was broken, bed was hard and pillows lumpy and old; the room smelt musty, and the A/C barely worked, it kept having an error code and only somewhat was cool if you close the bedroom door, but the kitchen/living room was hot and stuffy with no A/C. I was scared to use anything in the room because they have this waiver you must sign and damage deposit you must pay. You must wash your dishes or will be charged a fee on departure. The area around hotel did not feel safe at night, we did not realize that when walking home at 9pm in the dark after dinner. I was not pleased with what I expected from the advertisement photos and views compared to what we really got. Pros: room was clean, despite musty old smell. Roof top was pretty, the two Pools were small, the size of a hot tub, but nice. The view was decent, you could see the ocean from afar, and it was quiet at night and during the day. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Location is close to the ocean, melecon, and close to Romantica Zone, minus the noise. They will store your suitcases at the front desk complimentary which is nice.

Staff were excellent, rooms were large and clean, and it’s in a perfect location. Only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s an older hotel and doesn’t have a large pool, just pools you can sit in. I would definitely stay again!
