Ms. Rubina was very polite and very helpful she helped on the stay on the accomodations of which room we wanted and fulfilled our wishes thank u ma'am .
I think for the price it’s amazing the room was clean easy access to the beach. Restaurants nearby the only problem i had is the guest in the other rooms they were so loud disrespectful.

The staff made my stay much more pleasant.
The manager was extremely helpful in getting me upgraded and the night manager was as helpful as well. My stay was pleasant
Staff was very polite. The room was good size master bedroom and then 2nd room two full size bunk beds. My complaint is sliding door to balcony was broken so could not secure it. Minor damages to room that could be easily fixed. Blow dryer on switch broken, window blinds in 2nd room torn and front door needs a door sweep n maybe an added door lock.
It was bigger/spacier than I expected. Staff is very nice, great fishing spot right on the property! Very convenient area to get around the island walking or by car! Easy check in and check out! WE WILL BE COMING BACK.
Hotel is good for price ! Just for the price you will get what you payed the people a little loud in pool place feels safe great view on fishing dock ! The beds are comfortable just needs more covers does get cold at night dog friendly place people do clean after themselves
Cockroaches in the room , TV with no remote to be able to use it , we requested one that never came , mold in the shower , worn towels , very good AC , no security guard in the parking lot
I do not recommend this hotel. We paid nearly $800 for 2 nights and it is very old, the place felt/smelled dirty, cracks in the door (we had to put a towel in the crack to keep the air from escaping) there were roaches when i attempted to use the microwave. Not worth what we paid. The one thing we did enjoy was sitting outside catching the sea breeze. Other than that, It was very uncomfortable.

Weather was absolutely beautiful. Enjoyed the view and tha marina/pier. Hotel was a little out dated and very dusty in our room. There was basically no hot water in the showers. And neighbors were super loud. A good stay for the price. Oh and pool was filthy.
I loved the apps on the tv and the hot water in the shower was a good thing sometimes most hotels don’t realize that there water is not hot at all and who wants to take a good shower in cold water.

Disliked: Room comfort
Love to go here just to fish, not a huge fan of staying the weekend because the people get a little too crazy and the parking is TIGHT, so you’ve got to hope the people know how to park. Lowkey wish they charged more to keep some people out, just saying.
Staff at check in was very friendly, AC didn’t work
& called front desk (night shift) she hung up on me. Stated they didn’t have an extra room to move us. PARKING is horrible. For the price we paid the facility SHOULD be better. Showers were rusty.
