I booked this last minute as a median priced hotel. I based it off just a couple pictures that made it look great. I needed early access or an area to keep baggage at 9-10 in the morning. The staff was great, the facility was very clean. I rated it lower due to the room I was placed in. The room had portions of the ceiling stained and had patches that had fallen. The bed did not have a skirt on the mattress pad and some material falling from beneath it. The door was tricky to lock and unlock. I was disappointed in the room and area, but stalk and cleanliness made up for it. The restaurant was nice and the beer was cold. Continental breakfast consisted of small ham and cheese rolls, cereal, bananas, biscotti and some fruit.

Great staff! Small room, but very clean with both ceiling fan and AC. Simple, yet rich in local culture. Much preferred to the larger, busier hotels a short walk across road on the beach. Beach access, bring in-room beach towels. Safe location. Recommendation Platos a 5 min. walk away for an excellent Caribbean dinner.
Small patio, great sunsets.
Continental breakfast.
Centre courtyard.
Breakfast view.

Hotel was very cosy, location excellent, staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the room was small, but very very clean and tastefully put together. The only critique was that there was no coffee maker in the room. Otherwise a great experience.
