We had an amazing stay, would highly recommend! The only negative was that we had some tiny ants in our room, but everything else was wonderful. The rooftop pool was a big highlight. We also really liked the neighbourhood, it’s close enough to easily access the main strip and beaches, but it’s quiet and has lots of great spots to eat nearby.

The staff were lovely and a huge thank you to the your maids who had to clean up our messes every other day! The pool was also nice, but would have nice to know that the jacuzzi wasn’t actually hot and was pool temp water. The hotel room was decent but not the best, the shower head wasn’t working and then by the end of our stay the toilet seat was coming loose, but they fixed the shower head right away which was very nice. I love the staff at this hotel though, everyone was so kind and helpful.

The room was spacious and had a nice kitchen. Very helpful front desk staff. A marvellous roof top pool and lounge area. A room by the elevator is less desirable because of the noise from patrons.
