The first night was fine. The next day I requested my room to be cleaned and it was noted but it did not happen. It did not happen the next day either. The last day we saw roaches. Disgusting. I had to empty my own trash and get a trash bag.

The complimentary breakfast was beyond what I expected. A full meal with many options to choose from. The staff was also friendly. We received an upgrade die to the rooms bathroom sink being clogged and looking like housekeeping was in the middle of cleaning. With a dirty rag on the counter. Nic view of the bay from the room. The tide was very very low seeing what world normally be water seeing just dust. The next morning the tide was back to normal.

Clean, quiet and friendly staff

I’ve had a fantastic stay when I arrived on the 4th and on my departure on the 23rd of February of this year! Moustafa, the GM and the hotel staff were all kind and incredibly friendly. Both rooms that I stayed at were clean and spacious. There’s a restaurant called Max Restaurant, which is literally a walking distance away. I recommend trying their Jambalaya fettuccine and cheese cake (it was devine). I would consider the hotel safe and would recommend it. Their continental breakfast is good. The black shuttle bus is big and it took only 5 minutes drive away to the international terminal from the hotel. Would stay here again. Thanks again Moustafa.
