Hotel was nothing special but sufficient.
A/C was good breakfast good.
Staff overall was very good. The pool wasn't so nice.
Overall nice experience of the Hotel.
We had two rooms, one with a fridge and one without. No dressers but if you can live with that it was pretty good. Great price, fantastic friendly and helpful staff.

Adequate room, the staff was amazing and despite language barriers, we were able to achieve everything we wanted to it’s in a good location and a shuttle was provided for $30 to go to the airport. We did not use the pool or the shops nearby as it was later in the evening when we arrived and we were quite tired. We did go to the little restaurant. The food was very good and our waiter was exceptional.

Room was a good size. More basic but clean. Breakfast was limited, but eggs, pancakes and fruit. Nice roof top pool. The area around was not great, but short walk to water and old town. Very slow elevator.
The hotel is 2 stars at best. Room provided the bare minimum although the towels were soft and fluffy. No security box, no hair dryer, no dresser, etc..
Adequate, comfortable bed, quite noisy, unsafe to go out at night. Be prepared to use uber or cab after dark especially women. Front desk staff not so friendly but the doormen, especially Whyber, will go the extra mile to make sure you’re taken care of. Had paid for 6 days left after 3 to go to a better place despite the loss of $$.
