6/10 Good

Place is a little run down but nice location. Access to the beach across the road was the best part of the trip. Staff could barely speak English and had to call a translator to finish our stay. They were very nice people and the rooms were nice, just a little dirty.

Recommend for basic stay.

Everything was fine except this apartment close to a small club, so it a little bit noisy. It’s worthy for a affordable price.

Economic place to stay on the Island

4th of July trip. Had to get the remote from front desk. Staff was fun and friendly. Room was cold...yay. Shower was hot and bed was VERY comfortable.. Thats all I care about. Applian es were not plugged in so put food in it but next day only my ice packed kept it edible. I share fault in that. Will stay again.

Paid less for basic room.

It was a basic room and what we paid for. Comfy bed hot shower BUT tv and refrigerator did not work

The Worst!

The service wasn’t great. I got there and the lady couldn’t find my reservation. The hotel is old and raggedy. The rooms are small and look really old. The furniture is old also. The fridge was leaking water like a faucet on the inside and the room had mold which they tried to cover with paint. My daughter got sick and we left. When i saw the lady earlier that day I told her about the issue and she blew it off. Worst place I ever checked into! Never again! Its full of weird people and there is no good lighting. Zero stars
Dirty sheets
Mold spots

Value for the price

It has so much potential to be great! The hotel was very fun down, But it’s the value for the price. Staff was friendly and we had everything we needed for an overnight stay.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was wonderful and friendly. The room was small but clean and comfortable. Beach access was not close, but there was a beach view from the room.

There is no parking in first place, and the Hotel is maintained terrible, I don't wish to recommend this to anyone, Just see before you take don't believe pictures

All not horrible. Be open minded
Jeffry, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place is terrible, mysterious, and looks like a crime scene. Please do not go there or make any booking. They steal my money and never return or give me a room. Someone should take serious action against them and shut down this fraud and scam, which is completely ongoing here.
Matthew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is in a really great location across from an Italian restaurant and right next door to several bars. The staff was super friendly and the view was perfect. It's nothing fancy but if you just want to hang out at the beach it's perfect
Nathan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I wish they had an ice machine.

Clean, quiet, right across from the beach

I booked an overnight stay in a double queen room. Everything was clean right across from the beach and I will be visiting again.

Bang for your buck

Great location. Close to the water. Great friendly staff. Room 10 is a GREAT room...open well lit. Clean. Room 10 should be better marked so easier to find.
Richard A, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and clean.

The price was great. If you’re looking for fancy it is not for you. If you’re looking for clean awesome location that won’t break the bank check it out. We plan to stay there on our next trip back.
Brandi, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Pros: Close to Porretto Beach, Seawall, Dinning, and bars. All within Walking distance… Staff seemed friendly. View of Porretto beach from the window. Cons: This is a very old property. Rooms are second floor or third floor without an elevator. So if you have heavy suit cases or coolers you have to walk it up with force. Stairs are very narrow and you have to proceed with caution. It is evident that the property received damage from a previous Hurricane. Remodeling is noticed but they could have done a better job in my opinion. The room was really small especially the restroom. Only one person fits in the shower. TV is an old 32inch Samsung and is driven by a fire stick. TV stays on the wrong output so when you turn it on it does not work. You have to manually touch the tv output with your finger and change it to HDMI. Room Light was out and they fixed the second day. The overall construction of the room is poor. AC faces the restroom. No house cleaning what so ever. Sand paper towels and limited toilet paper. Did not try the breakfast. Parking is shared with other tenants and customers from other bars and properties, so it was hard to find a parking spot. A lady came banging on our door at 10:30am which is not check out time. That was annoying.
David, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Not at all what I expected based on the more recent reviews. Our room and shower were in obvious disrepair and towels were stained. Served its purpose but was a little disappointed.

They need better curtains because all u is the out side lights could nt sleep
Ever, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I really dont like the $100 "security deposit" that takes 5-7 business days to be returned. Other than that, location is great, room amelt like chlorine but i guess that's better than smelling dirty.

This is our second time staying here and we love it!! We can walk across the street to the beach and to quite a few shops and restaurants.
