Front desk staff and restaurant staff very kind. Always front desk or security at entrance so it felt safe. Property needs SUPER make over--rooms are outdated, and everything very old (ie, lamp shades, chair, towels, linens)
Clean, safe, cozy 😃👍, center of town , a lot of place to eat and shop within feet from Hotel . Very nice staff willing to help when asked
This is the third or fourth time I am staying at this hotel and I am glad to see that there are quiet a number of improvements over the last time. The staff try their best and the room, although basic, is kept clean. The free internet is reliable. The TV is very basic - could do with at least one soccer channel. This time round I included breakfast and although it is a fixed menu, it was enjoyable. It is an academy hotel i.e. they train staff in the hotel business. So occasionally staff will be at a loss as to what to do but there is always someone to help out. Not having to do with the hotel but the only hitch to my whole stay was the car rental from the airport. Although booked for 11pm, they closed the booth at 11pm so when I came out at 11:10 they were gone and I had to take a taxi (US$45.00) so travellers make sure they will wait for you. Don't take SiXT as they don't and the others will.
The Academy hotel is run by hospitality students of Curacao. I had a cute, clean room, the bed was comfortable, and it had all the amenities you would need: Wifi, air conditioning, a television, storage space etc. The space was somewhat overpriced but that's probably because I booked at the last minute. I also wish room service would wait until later in the day to knock and clean the room. They knock really loudly and WAY to early: 9:30am. Thats a little too early for people who are on vacation and who likely want to sleep in. Other than that I would stay there again.
Great location and so easy! Fab wifi, which was ideal for me as a researcher for catching up anytime in the hotel.
Staff: very attentive. be aware most staff are in-training to be staff. staff scheduled day trips and taxis. Room: basic, quiet a/c Food: Limited menu, breakfast and lunch were simple
