There was a very steep climb to the guesthouse. The front desk staff was not very friendly. The property was quite old and looked abandoned. The pool was filthy. The water pressure in the shower was low. I couldn’t wait to leave. I definitely won’t be back.

Great stopover for the night, great pool & deck
Wonderful staff, both Marilyn & Rachel (I hope I got that right, memory isn't so good at my age, lol), very friendly. The place was convenient from the airport, super clean room, good a/c & bed & had a very relaxing and clean pool & deck area with just a little view of Montego Bay. Definitely a great stay except be aware it sits on a steep hill so walking down or up from the main road - especially at night isn't for the faint of heart or stamina! LOL!!

Far from food. Unwalkable because on a steep hill so be prepared to pay for expensive taxis every time you want to leave . Room had frig which was nice but saw a big roach and checked out early. Area gates are locked from inside with a padlock and freaked me out until I realized I had a key to it. Staff was nice, and grounds were nice. Room was ok for the price .

need somewhere short, and close to airport
The hotel photos didn't look like the same, the hotel is actually very small and run down. The front desk is all it really is a desk, the security isn't the best. The room was a decent size, the bathroom was very small and awkward, to the point the sink was behind the door. The room did have a/c that was plus, but then the circuit kept tripping so the a/c shut off. Then the television channels re not what we expected, and was too nervous to search for channels due to everything looking like it cost. The location of this hotel was great. The view was fabulous. You can see the airport and the ocean from a small walk. The staff was ok, not too friendly but just enough to do their job.

Pros: Front desk was friendly, sheets and towels clean, close to airport. Cons: Walls very thin. Door to adjoining room only secured with a small latch. Safe didn’t seem to be working. No instructions for the “free wifi” given. Room was tired looking and not very clean. “airport shuttle” means there may or may not be a driver available.

Good location, friendly check in, decent pool. Rooms need cleaning and kitchens don't have any dishes you would want to touch. You have to unlock padlocks on gates just to get to your room which is annoying, but standard in Jamaica if you're not in a resort. They take a key deposit, and it looked like someone might be living in at least one of the rooms. The place would be perfect if the price was a little lower, and properly matched the value you are getting.

Miss Dorris is VERY NICE…We arrived while storming and she did not want us to have to walk in the rain and she helped with an umbrella but we were ok 👍 The room is very secure but be prepared for with your own food or beverages. DO NOT TAKE A TAXI FROM THE AIRPORT. Call Amstar and you will be safe ❤️ The TAXI ripped is off. If your phone doesn’t work in the airport go to information first! Don’t go to the taxi podium! ❤️ Again miss Dorris is very sweet and her place is VERY safe!

While this place was clean, it needed a few little touches like a kitchen towel, at least a basic set of dishes/cutlery (even if they charge a deposit, like they do for the key), and more consistent water pressure for flushing the toilet. It was nice to be close to the airport for our departure.

Ok stay
The property is beautiful and lovely view. The suite was pretty large and staff was friendly. Excellent breakfast and communication. Water was warm. Refridgerator needs to change. A new one needs to ne put in the suite. Has rust and leaking water. More lighting in the living area. The bed was too hard for me. Maybe some people like a hard bed but i cant do hard beds. By the last night of my stay, i wouldnt have been able to spend another night. My back was hurting me. But i didn't ask for a matress topper. Maybe if i had asked they prob would have provided it. They would need a soft mattress topper incase someone cannot sleep on a hard matress. They also need bigger pillows. Those little pillows looks like travel pillows. The ones online looks bigger than what i actually got. The pictures of the suite i was in, looks alot better online than in person. I will say that my stay was average, 7 out of 10.
