I was impressed with how well the hotel lobby had recovered from the hurricane. The reception staff did their job but could maybe be a bit more customer friendly and smile and make you feel more welcomed . The room we had was on third floor and had new flooring and most new furniture but the blackout curtain was full of holes and dirty and net curtain was grubby and as for the outside on the balcony could do with a lot of tlc , the aircon was falling to pieces and noisy

Lacking staff support, no breakfast do not buy the breakfast add-on option. They do not have free breakfast. You will not get free breakfast even if you pay for it. Wish I would’ve known that before we purchased it. Unaccommodating. Will choose a different place next time.

I purchased the meal for two as part of my 2 night package but was informed by the restaurant in the hotel that there was a mandatory 10 service and 18% gratuity charge so i still paid full price and thats a rip off. I was charged for meal tickets that i was scammed out of.

View from our room was fantastic. Music everynight at the bar and we had direct sight. The room though was very hot and the AC couldnt keep up with the heat from the windows. We did speak too the front desk, we were offered another room but would have had to give up our view. Otherwise, they wern't very opologetic, and we had to purchase a fan to put on the AC to blow air into our room. If you arent a fan of sleeping in a hot room and sweating when getting ready after showering, maybe think twice. I also wasnt happy to get notified right before stayed thay the game room was closed. Check before you book!
